Halloween Banner

I just love the banner that I made at Mainely Stampin.  I have been having fun in there classes.  It was easy and fast to make.  Lynn had everything ready to put together.  If you are in the area you really need to stop by.  There are not many Scrapbook stores left and we really need to support the ones that are left.  Yes you can get classes at the bigger Craft store but the little guys really need the help.  They really go out of their way to help you.

October Kard Swap Club

Well it has been a very long time since I have shared our Kard Swap Cards.  I love Halloween and the Fall season colors.  I love it when there is a little moisture in the air and you just want to snuggle up with a good book under a blanket.  Most of us don't get to really do that but it does sound good anyway.  We're more likely to have a bowl of soup for dinner.  Ha! Ha!.  You know what I mean.
Oops I am getting sidetracked from my group.  Last night we met over at Cathy's house.  She is an Artist, she paint beautifully and does all kinds of crafts.  She has things all around her home that she has made and painted.
Our project was to stamp with Staz-On on a domino then color it in with markers.  I still need to put the ribbon on mine so I can take a picture of it for you to see.

Here are all the cards together on my hutch.  You can see more on my hutch here
You can see more banners here
The cards make great Halloween Decorations don't you think?

This is Donna's card.

This is Erin's card.  It is one of a One Sheet Wonder set that she got off Pinterest.

This is Kathy's card.  Inside it say's Wish you a Happy Halloween!

This is Cathy's card she embossed and then cut out the face with a craft knife.  Very clever!  I told you she was good!

This is Jeannie's card inside is like a card within a card.  So cute.  love the googly eyes.

This is Laurie's card.  Love the potion bottles.

This is mine.  The cat is fussy cut out and popped up.

This is Lani's card.  Lots of die cuts stacked on top of each other.

This is Debb's card.  I have to say this is my favorite one.  I love the face it is one stamp.  She embossed it and then added chalk around the eyes and lip.  Then used hair spray to keep the color on. Did I mention this is my favorite one.

We set our calendar for next year so you will be seeing these for awhile longer.  Keep checking back for more.  Thanks for stopping by.

Graphic 45 Halloween Mini Album

Have you ever had a creative block?  Well that has been going on with me since my Mom passed away.  So I decided to just do it!  You know the saying I am sure.  But since I can't just do it myself I decided to take a class and boy was it fun.
Some of the ladies in my Kard Swap Klub invited my to go with them to a class at Mainely Stampin in Fairfield, CA. This one of the last Scrapbooking stores in our area.  I love supporting local business.  Last month and we made a Beneath the Sea from Graphic 45 Mini Album and I had a blast.  While I was there she showed us her Graphic 45 Alice in Wonderland Halloween Album and so I signed up for it on the spot.

Lynn at Mainely Stampin was the creator of both the Mini Albums.  So here is the Halloween one.  I will post the Beyond the Sea one in a couple of days.

This post has lots of photos so grab a cup of coffee (or whatever) and have a good time!

Here is the Box and the Album that we made.  The details are amazing.  I had so much fun making this Mini Album and box.  Thank you Lynn for creating this all the prep and thought that went into this.  I know what it take and I really appreciate all that you did!

Here is the box.  Love the Cat.  It looks like a Cricut cut but I am not sure.  It is embossed with a small polka-dot pattern.  Also some gems for the eyes and cat's collar.  On the 31 we used the Metallic Gilding Wax, Vintage Plum.  It is a metallic paste and you apply it with your finger.  Yes I bought a jar to take home. LOL!  Extra flowers too.

Here is the Album in the box.  It fits great.  What a cute gift this would make.  I think I am going to collect picture from way back and put them in the book.  Me when I was little and my husband and his sibling.  Them our kids when they were little and then my Grandkids too.  What fun that will be to look at and set our every Halloween.  

The inside of the box is finished too.  I was able to complete my project in class.  It took from 10:00 am until 2:30 with one break in the middle.  I was bound and determined to get it done because we all know how it goes when you don't! 

I love the handle for the box and the Owl paper on the inside of the lid.  My oldest Granddaughter loves Owls and the way my paper was cut out it made it the focal point of my lid.  Love it!

You can see in this pic that every page has a top tab for a pull out.  The pull outs have a little surprise too.

This is the inside and first page.  The beware and 31 have the Metallic wax on them. On the inside has a waterfall for 8 photos and the first page has a pull out.

You can see the z-fold pull out in this picture.  The 31 tab up above is open in the photo and the side of the pull out opens up too.

You can see the 31 tab pull out, out and open all the way.  This all gives you 20 spots for photo on the inside and first page.

the 2nd and 3rd pages with the tags and pull outs open in the bottom has 10 spots for photos.

Pages 4 and 5, has 10 spots for photos

Pages 6 and 7 has 17 spots for photos.

Here is the last page and inside of the back cover.  The inside of the back cover is probable my favorite.  We were given and extra witch to cut out and pop up.

October Card Swap

October is a fun month for our card swap because we always do a fun Halloween card.  So here is what I did.

I used the Artfully Sent cartridge to cut the Birch Trees with and then I used Art Philosophy to cut the background for the Happy Halloween.  I did a search for the bats and the crow but I think they were from Happy Haunting.
The Happy Halloween is from the stamp set Steampunk Scoundrels B1503.
I actually cut everything out of Daisy White cardstock.  I then sponged the colors I wanted I also used my ShinHan Alcohol markers to get the look I wanted.  I used Wink Of Stella Clear over the moon to get some sparkle.  I didn't get a chance to take pictures of the other cards this month because I gave them all out already to the Ladies at my luncheon that was the next day.  OOPS!!!

Thanks for stopping by.

Getting ready for Halloween

I love Halloween, I love the colors, and Fall, I really love Fall.
Last weekend a group of CTMH consultants and I got together and put this cute Halloween Mini Album.  Lori Scott was the leader on this one.  We had a great time, and as usual lots of laughs.
We are all teaching it as a class with our customers.  So if you would like to make one just let me know.  I am doing a class for it on Tuesday Septermber 29, 2015.  I will be doing more classes too!
Here is just a sneak peek at the album.

Here is the inside.

It has pockets and lots of room for photos too.

It uses the My Creations Album and the Nevermore paper pack all of which you can get on my website

October Card Swap Happy Halloween

Its been awhile since I have posted my Card Swap card from the group.  We met at my SIL Debb's this month.  Debb keeps all her cards and uses them as decorations all around her house.  What a great idea! So here we go.

Here is Debb's Card she use the Stamps by Judith Ghost Tree with pumpkins and bats.

This is the inside of her card it uses the Cricut cartridge Celebrate with Flourish

Here is Jeannine's she used a Digital stamp by WeeStamps called Hazel.  She colored them in with markers and then added some gems.

On the inside of Jeannine's card she used the Eek & Shriek stamp set.

This one is Kathy's this is a swing card that she made into Frankenstein.  The card is cut from the Tri Fold Sizzix die.  The eyes and nose are circles cut at 2.25', 1.25', .75' from the  Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge.  She drew the scar and the mouth on.

Here it is open. This would be a fun one to get for sure. And that hair it just makes it. The Boo is cut at 6" from the Art Booking cartridge

Here is the one that Tamara made by inking the embossing folder then running it through the Big Shot.

Our newest member is Donna and this was her first time with us in our swap.  She used the web embossing folder too and stickers, the spiders have black gems on their bodies.  Welcome Donna!

This one is Lani's and it is a cute one.  It has a spooky feeling!

On the inside you will find the Gaveyard at the bewitching hour.  It is a die cut from Spellbinders

Erin made us all a sweet treat to go along with her Grafic45 card. This one really makes you smile.

This is the card that I made from the Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge.  It is one of the Scene Cards.  I cut the backgrounds in different colors.  The bats in the moon are colored with our Black ShinHan markers.

On the inside I stamped a spooky Tree and Boo at the top.  The ghost is from Frightfully Fun stamped, cut and colored with Warm Grey 4 marker.

Here is our make and take, isn't he cute.  Wait till you see what he is hiding!

Yummmmm!!!

It was a fun evening with all the ladies.  Debb made a pumpkin loaf and it was good.  It's always fun to have a night out with the girls.

Thanks for stopping by.
