Halloween

I know I'm a little late in sharing these but you can still get this paper and create for next year so I'm going to share any where. 

I don't buy lots of Halloween things. It's not a holiday that I do a lot of decorating or celebrating for. I loved dressing up my girls when they were little and going out with them. I love watching the kiddos come to the door but I don't do much more. My girls have for the most part out grown trick or treating and we don't get any trick or treaters at the house we live in. 

I did want to make a couple of cards without a ton of money into supplies so I purchased the Cute Halloween paper pack and used the greeting stamp sets that I have on hand to complete these cards.

The Happy Halloween come from the die set called Word Wishes dies. I did go over them with Wink of Stella so they do sparkle. The center of this card is popped up on dimentionals.


For the greeting on this card I used the Playful Alphabet dies to die cut boo. After I adhered the letters to the card I covered them with Shimmery Crystal Effects. I also used my dark Highland Heather blend and colored the ribbon.


These strips are cut at 1-3/8" by 3-1/4" and layered on the scalloped die cut. Wrapping the ribbon around these layers and add it to the card base with dimensionals creates a great focal point. I then added the greeting with the cute little star.


These cards may be late for this year but why not get ahead in life a create a few for next year? Keep creating, whether you are ahead or behind, keep creating!

Fresh Freesia

One of the newest In Colors is Fresh Freesia. Fresh Freesia is a beautiful light purple color. I love all things purple so I was excited to have another purple to the Stampin' Up! lineup.

While creating with this color, I paired it with Blackberry Bliss and Elegantly Said to create this first card. Isn't that ribbon so pretty? The dark of the Blackberry Bliss really makes this color pop.


This card is a bit more playful. I stamped the hippo with Fresh Freesia, the horse with Balmy Blue and the sheep with Mango Melody. I chose not to add faces to these guys. I liked just the shapes for this card. You could add the faces if you would like to.


Artistically Inked is a fantastic stamp set that I haven't had a chance to play with yet. The huge, abstract flower is so wonderful! I feel like it would be very hard to make a bad project with this set. I stamped that flower with Fresh Freesia on the same cardstock and added some Soft Succulent leaves and Daffodil Delight centers. You can see that gorgeous ribbon again here but in the Soft Succulent color. 


I hope you have seen all new In Colors by now. They are a wonderful set of colors that have been fun to create with. You can purchase these colors and more by clicking the pictures below. My online store will be more than happy to help you find all that you need!

Happy Stampin'!
