Tent Card

Batty4U_tentcardWhen you want to wish someone a “spook-takular” halloween, you send them a cute card like this one! The cardstock base is cut to 8.5″ x 4.25″ so that even with the added medallion, this card will still fit in a standard envelope. Details: Creepy Crawly DSP, variety of circle punches and the Batty for You stamp set…and don’t forget the wiggle eyes! They just make you smile!

Just a sneak peek at this month’s Stamp Camp projects. This month’s theme is “Boo Bag, Box & More” and we’ll be making 5 projects including a gift/treat bag, a candle, a tent card, a One Sheet box and a gift bottle! All the projects will be made using Stampin’ Up!’s Creepy Crawly Designer Series Paper and class participants will receive an entire pack of it as part of their class fee. The fee for this class is $25 and includes everything shown…all you bring with you are adhesive and a 12″ paper trimmer. There will be two sessions of this camp, but seating is limited. The last day to RSVP is Wednesday, September 12th, so call now to reserve your spot! I’ll be lurking for you….

Spooky Scrapbook Pages

Some friends and I are creating a scrapbook for my friend Maureen’s 40th birthday (Happy Birthday, Mo!) Here is one of the layouts I created using some of Stampin’ Up!’s retired Halloween Designer Paper and Trick or Treat stamp set.  There were so many great pictures from this party that I just couldn’t fit them all on my 2-page layout. Rather than spill over onto another page or two, I created a “mini-album” for this layout. The mini-album has room for all my extra photos without taking up extra space! I did get a little fancy with the “stairstep” style pages and the Round Tab Punch embellishments…but the basic design is really very easy! Contact me to arrange a class for you and your friends. Or join me every 2nd Wednesday morning at 9:30 AM for my Sassy Scrappers group…we get together to work on our books and learn new techniques. RSVP’s are needed as space is limited, so call or email me soon!
