TGIF Challenges: TGIFC225 - ALL ON BLACK Challenge

ALL ON BLACK - what a fun challenge for this weeks TGIF Challenge. There are so many fantastic new Halloween products coming out on September 1 from Stampin’ Up! that I had to play with a few for this challenge. The stamp set is called The Raven. I added a bunch of sparkling black embossing powder to give the details on the black card stock a little punch.

I am a HUGE fan of Halloween and decorating for Halloween. This little 6x6 piece of decor will be a nice addition to my Halloween decorations.

Play along with us! Check out the TGIFChallenges Blog for more details. Tag your projects #tgifc225 so we are sure to see them.

Ghoulish Grunge, Mr. Funny Bones - week of Halloween projects

It's the first week October and I am fully in the spooky spirit.  I am planning to share Halloween cards & projects all week long.

Hanging sugar skulls ... everything about this card is a little off kilter and is kind of morbid but also perfect for Halloween!

These projects get a high five! This tag is a fun way to use the hand stamp image and saying.

Sweet Hauntings - WWYS Challenge #33

Another week and another fun stamp set to inspire with (WWYS) What Will You Stamp Design team. I found all of the projects from last weeks challenge super inspiring. Remember, every Monday, our Design team posts projects using a single featured stamp set. This week we were challenged to use the Sweet Hauntings stamp set. This set has a matching note tag punch!!!

I decided create treat packaging instead of a card this week. Candy bar wrappers are so fun and easy to create. You can make them as simple or as complex as you'd like. The simple route: cut designer paper to the size of the candy bar and wrap. Instantly better. Step it up a bit more with a few layers. Sometimes when I struggle with a layout for a certain project I will first stamp all of the elements, cut them out and just start arranging pieces like a puzzle until I get a look I like. I find that process super fun!

BOO! More Howl-o-ween Treat samples

Yep, I have more samples to share using the Howl-o-ween treats stamp set, framelits and a traditional orange and black color combination.  

The spiderweb doilies are so versatile. Flip and use the back side for a totally different look. Tip with a black card: use a white gel pen or chalk pen to write a visable message on the inside.
