I have never been one to decorate for Halloween, not sure why, just never did.  However, a few weeks ago, Carole and I were at the Dollar Tree and I saw the skulls, eyeballs and hands.  I thought for just a dollar each, what did I have to lose?  Maybe I could come up with something.  I have seen several similiar displays around blogland decided to give it a try.  The jars are from my studio, they usually hold ribbon, I just took out the ribbon and added the Dollar Tree items.  Quick and Easy.  Thank you for visiting.

Halloween - Witch Cards & Tags

A few more Halloween cards and tags.  These are so fun to make.  Love the spooky eyes behind the witch.  Thanks for looking.

Haunted House Card

I found this stamp in my supplies yesterday... a nice little surprise.  I completely forgot I had it, and it had never been used.  I must have purchased it on sale last year after Halloween.  Anyway, I decided I had to use it immediately and made this quick little 3x3 card with a matching envelope.  Thanks for looking.

Halloween Tags

Today I made several sets of Halloween tags.  These are so fun to make and a great way to use up scrap paper.  I am linking up with Twice Remembered for Make Your Monday... go check out all the other great projects.  Thanks for looking!

Halloween Gift Card Holder

This is a 4x4 gift card holder and I made the envelope to match from a Coluzzle template.  The stamp is from Imaginisce, moon is a making memories metal rim tag.  Boo is punched from Quickutz.  Thanks for looking!

Boo! Halloween Cards and A New Blog Look

When I started this blog, I was a scrapbooker, since then I have expanded my creativity to cards and other crafts as well, so I thought I would update my blog title to reflect my other interests.  Still me, just a different blog header.  :-)

The Boo is punched from Sizzix dies using glitter paper.  I stamped the inside with the same stamp that is on the envelope.  Thanks for looking. 

Black Cat Halloween Card

The "moon" is a spellbinders circle die, cat is a Sizzix die and border punched with Martha Stewart punch.  Thanks for looking.

Skull Halloween Card

Trick or Treat... Halloween will be here before we know it.  I used a Martha Stewart punch for the border, and a Sizzix die for the skull.  Thanks for looking. 

Halloween Dracula Vampire Card Set

Again I was inspired by a treat box that I thought would look cute as a card.  Thanks for looking.

Halloween Mummy Card Set

This set of Mummy cards was inspired from a treat box I saw online.  Inside has a ghost and Boo!  Thanks for looking.

Halloween Frankenstein Card Set

Isn't Frank so cute!  I saw a treat box with Frank's face and thought they would make cute Halloween cards.  Thanks for looking!

More Halloween Cards

Two more cards for the sketch challenges over on Splitcoast. I bought one of the stacks by DCWV, so I have a lot of this Halloween paper to use up. The orange is Bazill cardstock.

Happy Halloween

Another sketch challenge, this one is for SC197.
I used DCWV papers. The bat is Heidi Grace raised accents. The gems I found in the dollar spot at Michaels; they were originally clear but not very sparkly, so I colored them with a black sharpie. Ribbon is one of those inexpensive spools from Jo-Anns. Thanks for looking.

Sketch Challenge

I am catching up on the sketch challenges over on Split Coast, I was three sketches behind and the new one comes out tomorrow.

This first one is for sketch SC191, I used a Stampendous stamp and papers from DCWV. I colored the image with markers and added Crystal Effects to the ornaments. The square brads are from Making Memories.

The second one is for sketch SC192, I used papers from DCWV, Bling from Heidi Swapp and the chip board is a discontinued item.

The third one is for sketch SC193, I used a CTMH stamp and papers from DCWV. I colored the image with colored pencils and highlighted with glitter gel pens.
