Happy Halloween Pumpkin Curvy Keepsake Box

There have been so many amazing ideas when using the New Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlit Die from Stampin Up!    I knew I was going to make a cute Halloween box in my September classes but wasn't quiet sure what I was going to make. . . . . thanks to many creative demonstrators, I decided to make my own version of a Pumpkin.    I hope you like it!   

The Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlit Die is super easy to use and the box is simple to put together.   I actually couldn't stop making other Halloween and Christmas themed boxes (pictures to come shortly).     This thinlit die is completely worth the $33 price tag -- Not only do you get the thinlit to make the box (need to cut 2), but you also get three (3) cute little tag thinlits that are perfect size for the box.  

The Happy Halloween words came from the Good Greetings stamp set.   This is a Hostess Exclusive stamp set.    Now through October 31, 2014 you can earn the set FREE with $300 in class sales and/or personal order.   This set is so versatile and covers Holidays from Halloween to Valentine's Day.

Happy Halloween (Bite Me) - FM131

Saw this Sketch Challenge on The Friday Mashup and wanted to play along.   Had a choice to either (1) use the sketch, (2) make a spooky project or (3) Mash It to create a Spooky project using the sketch.   I went with Option 3!  :)  

I decided to use the "Bite Me Photopolymer Set (Item #134622 $13.95) for my project.   I added some dazzling diamonds on the spiderweb to give it a little glimmer!    Hope you enjoy my creation!

Halloween Happiness - MOJO310

Halloween will be here before we know it.   I personally do not send Halloween cards, but I do like to make 3D items for my kids friends/classmates.  I love the Halloween Happiness stamp and it works perfectly for the Treat Bag Topper.  

Working on my samples for my classes this weekend and decided to incorporate a Sketch Challenge into the mix.   My Classes will be making the Treat Bag using the Stampin Up! Clear Envelopes, but made a card for the Sketch Challenge posted on Mojo Monday Blog.

Halloween Bash STS#1

Saw this Sketch Challenge from Seize the Sketch today and had to play along!  :)   I knew I was going to go for my Washi Tape, it was just a matter of deciding which "set" and theme I wanted to use.    I finally decided on a Halloween theme -- Was lucky to win the Halloween Bash stamp set during a Prize Patrol at Convention this year.  

Hope you like my take on the sketch challenge!

Ghoulish Googlies Treat Bags

I just LOVE the Ghoulish Googlies Designer Kit and the coordinating Stamp Set - Googly Ghouls!!!!  The Googlies (self-adhesive googly eyes) are by far my FAVORITE Halloween embellishment.

This project was inspired by Shannon West's demonstration on Convention (1st sample below).  This treat bag is so cute and simple to make.  I think my Stampin Group will enjoy making it this month!!
