HAPPY HALLOWEEN...

Notice how I cut a zig zag edge along the embossed chevron pattern

and along the edge of the printed paper...

And I used the "masking" technique to group the little ghosts...

The Spooky Bingo Bits Stamp Set is such fun...

ITSY BITSY SPIDERS...

Itsy bitsy spiders crawled up the water spout.  Down came the rain and washed the spiders out.  Out came the sun... and I caught the itsy bitsy spiders in a jar!!

DESIGN NOTE:  I stacked two Stampin' Dimensionals on top of each other to make the jar more 3-D looking.  Then I cut a piece of Window Sheet and put it over the jar to make it look like glass.

HERE FOR YOU...

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

 

I'm not really here for you (as the card implies)... I'm off on a quick trip after making a quick card!  It was such a quick departure that I didn't have time to write the SUPPLIES & ACCESSORIES list for you.  Sorry.

I'm taking a laptop with me, and will drop a line to say HEY!

HALLOWEEN GUYS...

 

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

An arrangement of Halloween cookies gave me the design inspiration to make this card!  Hee hee!

HOW TO MAKE A HALLOWEEN GUY:  1) Punch a 1-3/4" Circle from Garden Green Card Stock.  2) Cut a few 1/2" strips from Whisper White Card Stock.  3) Score a line down the middle of each white strip. <I did that in order to match the cookie bandages.>  4) Run SNAIL Adhesive on the back side of each white strip.  5) Adhere the strips, one-by-one, on top of the green circle, leaving space for eyes and mouth. 6) With Paper Snips, cut the excess white bandages from around the edge of the green guy's face.  7) Wrap Baker'sTwine around a short craft stick.  8) Position his face on the craft stick.  9) Attach to card with Stampin' Dimensionals and Glue Dots. 10) Embellish with Googlie Eyes.
