Here’s Poppy hanging out for Karen Burniston’s September Challenge! He’s sitting on an Oval Accordion die just waiting for the fun to begin! The sentiment is from Stampin Up’s Tee Hee Hee and it says “People call me a witch…..like it’s a bad thing.” Too funny! I used Karen’s Cloud Edges die for the edges.

Supplies

Stamp Set – Tee Hee Hee

Card stock – Smokey Slate, Basic Black, Whisper White, Cajun Craze, Early Espresso, So Saffron, Motley Monsters DSP

Ink – Momento Tux Black

Etc – Karen Burniston’s Poppy ,Oval Accordion and Cloud Edge dies

It suddenly turned Fall around here this weekend! A perfect time for Karen Burniston’s Halloween challenge – and a great time to start creating those spooky creations. I used the Accordion Circle die with the solid edge and the new Tee Hee Hee set from the Stampin Up Holiday Mini. On the front, the cauldron, bubbling away. (Those bubbles are some old floral/vase fillers)

Do you think the witch was doing her laundry before the big day? Or just conjuring up her spooky attire?

Supplies

Stamp Set – Tee Hee Hee

Card stock – Basic Black, Whisper White, Back to Black DSP

Ink – Memento Tux Black, Tangerine Tango, Pear Pizzazz

Etc – Karen Burniston Accordion Circle die, Pear Pizzazz ribbon

There will be lots of spooky inspiration on Karen’s Facebook page. Grab your broom and head over to see what the other designers have created! Hugs, Fran

Holiday Mini fun! When I first saw this set – Santa Stache – I wasn’t sure what I thought! After a bit of playing around with the set and matching mustache die, I think it’s fun! So here is a case of the catalog sample with a few changes using the set, die and blendabilities.

Supplies

Stamp Set – Santa Stache, Christmas Bliss

Card stock – Whisper White, Under the Tree DSP

Ink – Memento Tux Black, Cherry Cobbler

Etc – Mustache die, Cherry Cobbler and skin tone Blendabilities

This is the reverse of what usually happens to me. Usually I love a set and then can’t figure out how to use it – so I’m happy! Hugs, Fran

This card is for the Splitcoast September Creative Crew challenge to focus on the Typeset Designer Series paper. I embossed the Very Vanilla with the Beautifully Baroque embossing folder and sponged the edges with Crumb Cake, On the Typeset panel I sponged and added my sentiment (heat embossed) and flowers from Flower Shop. Then I splattered Espresso ink on the card by tapping an aqua painter against my bone folder.

One of the Splitcoast Creative Crew Challenges this month is to use Dimensionals! That’s an easy one because I use them on everything 🙂 I used the single stamp, Snapshot, and stamped the camera 3 times. Then I cut each layer apart and stacked them back together again using Dimensionals between each layer.

Here’s a project that I did for the Splitcoast Creative Crew 🙂 The challenge is for the Scrapbook and More Focus: Make a treat and package it. Come play with us!

I used Wondrous Wreath and the new Cafe Bags to make this. First I ran the bag through the Big Shot using the Woodgrain embossing folder then I stamped the wreath. I punched a tiny hole using the smallest hand held punch to attach the Wooden Essential leaf. All the supplies are listed here.

Wondrous Wreath has a matching die set and markers on the stamps so you can line them up. It’s very easy to do. The tag on the bag was made with For All Things which is a beautiful Fall set. You can play along with all the challenges this month by heading here –

My favorite new thing in the Holiday Mini? The Gift Box Punch Board of course! This wonderful tool makes the cutest boxes is many sizes – the largest being 4 x 4. Here I used the new Under the Tree Specialty Designer Series paper to create a Christmas box. The paper is really heavy – perfect for these boxes! Around the sides I added trees. There is a new punch in the mini that makes trees – but these were made with the banner punch. I topped it off with the new Mingle All the Way stamp set and the Banner Framelits.
