Halloween Spider

I made one of those cute little spiders from Dawn's site. She does such cool tutorials. You will need Black CS, Whisper White CS, I used Dusty Durango CS, Scallop Circle Punch, Photo Corner Punch, 1/2" circle punch, 1/4" circle punch (retired), Mini glue dots and Adhesive. Oh yeah, I didn't have the kind of candy Dawn used so I found a round piece of covered chocolate in the Trick-or-Treat bowl. Isn't this little guy just too cute?

My Halloween Treats

I made some treats for my workmates for Halloween. Pretty easy ~ and they turn out cute. Love those punches. I used the Batty for You Stamp Set for the images.

Dasher Matchbox

I made this little matchbox with the Dasher Stamp. I cut it out and rounded the corners with the corner rounder punch and sponged with Soft Suede. I sprayed it with the Champagne Mist mixed with alcohol and sprayed onto the Whisper White CS that had been stamped with with Dasher Stamp in Rich Razzleberry. The picture doesn't really show the sparkle well, but that spray makes it so pretty.

Butterfly Thank You Cards

I learned this new technique (Faux Foil) on StampingSchool.com tonight. You make a little box to hold 5 1/2' x 3 1/2" note cards. The cards are made by making a stencil, I used the Big Shot Beautiful Butterflies for my pattern. Use the sponge daubers to add Platinum Shimmer Paint and your Stamp-a-ma-jig to line up the Thank You from the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set. Rich Razzleberry CS for the box and Rich Razzleberry Classic Ink Pad for the "thank you". I used the silver cord and added a little bow made with the Rich Razzleberry Polka Dot Ribbon. Clear sheets for the box cover. (Sorry but the shiny gives off a reflection when I'm taking the picture!)

Christmas Decoration Card

I totally cased this from Becky Roberts at Inking Idaho. I used Specialty DSP Christmas Cocoa and the sponging was Soft Suede. The pearls are from the Pretties Kit and I used the gold stretch cord and Brown Grosgrain Ribbon. I love the Ornament Punch, it makes doing these types of cards so easy ... just punch out 3 and glue 'em together. If you want to mail, leave off the pearls and it will lay flat in an envelope and when they open it up they can make the ornament stand out again. The other die cut I used for the background is another favorite, the Top Note Die.

Thinking of You Sympathy Card

I made a Sympathy card tonight for my work friends who lost their 26 year old son. I used the Clearly Thanks Printed Window Sheets ~ they are so awesome. I stamped the Thinking of You from Kind & Caring Thoughts Stamp Set.

(Sorry for the reflection on the window sheet!)
