Hey There Pumpkin

I’ve been a little scarce because I’ve been busy creating fun things with lots of new products from the Holiday Catalog.  We have a big demonstrator event next weekend and we want to make sure everyone has a great time.  I can’t wait to share the cards with you but you’ll have to wait another week.  In the meantime I have some holiday cards from my Stamp & Go Club that I can share now.

The first holiday in the new catalog of course would be Halloween.  I think it’s fun to send Halloween cards to family and friends — it’s definitely not an expected time to receive a card.  I used the Harvest Hello stamp set and coordinating Apple Builder Punch.  This stamp set has apples and pumpkins so it is great for fall and Halloween.  I cased this card from fellow demo Debbie Henderson.  I love the layout so I switched cardstocks a bit to come up with this version.

Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive with a layer of Basic Black make this card pop – such a great color combination.

Tomorrow is the big day — the Holiday Catalog goes live.  I can hardly wait.  I have another fun card for you using the Monster Bash Designer Paper and one of the new stamp sets — Everything Festive.  The phrases in this stamp set are fabulous and cover all the upcoming holiday.
