Happy Halloween Witches Hats

The Spooky Nights designer paper stands on its own — it can be the main focus of your card like this card created by team member Amanda.  All the fun dancing witches hat draw my eyes right into the card.  The Happy Halloween comes from the Spooky Cats stamp set — add a few polka dots with the Polka Dot Basics Embossing Folder and a great lace trim with the Decorative Ribbon Border — so adorable.

Creep it Real

Creep it Real!!!  I realize many people aren’t “into” Halloween.  I LOVE the Halloween Color Combo — black and orange — fun designs.

I really like cutesy — do not like scary, creepy at all.  The Creep it Real stamp set is so darn adorable. The images are so cute!!!

Here’s a card that features one of the phrases in the stamp set — for REAL (heehee) — not creepy at all, just darn cute.  The Spooky Night designer paper is a main focus to me.

Fall / Halloween / Hand Made Cards

School = Fall Starting

It’s back to school time which means fall is beginning.  We are still have some warm, sunny days but the nights are cooling way down (a little Indian Summer).  For my September scrapbook pages I wanted a back to school feel but most in the group don’t have school age children anymore.  I couldn’t go full fall quite yet so I settled on a fun combination – apples and a wagon full of vegetables on some fun primary colors.

September Scrapbook, Bike Ride, Grown With Love
I used the Bike Ride stamp set on page 1 to stamp the row of apples in the center — Memento ink for the outlines and Real Red for the inside of the apples.
