So THIS has happened...

The reason my crafting has been seriously delayed... we are excited, but man, pregnancy sickness sucks!!! :)

Neat and Tangled Haunted House

I found this adorable stamp set from Neat and Tangled called Halloween Scene and I just had to buy it up! I used a few stamps from the Home Sweet Home: Halloween Additions stamp set from There She Goes Clear Stamps (now closed, but you can find stamps on ebay)- the ghost and tiny bat trio. I used a little witch stamp from my stash. I put clear stickles on the moon, stars, clouds, witch and ghost. Such a fun card for kids- not too scary :)

What's Brewin?

I love this crow paper I picked up last year. I used the house from Home is Where the Haunt is stamps from Stampin' Up. For the inside I used Home Sweet Home: Halloween Additions stamp set from There She Goes Clear Stamps (now closed, but you can find stamps on ebay). Love this stamp set inside of Halloween cards (& on envelopes)!!

One Layer Halloween

We have a friend that can only receive one layer cards with no glitter or anything fancy on it. I make this a fun crafty challenge every season! Here I used a cheap clear stamp set from Michael's (last year) along with the Home Sweet Home: Halloween Additions stamp set from There She Goes Clear Stamps (now closed, but you can find stamps on ebay). I also repeated some of the Halloween shelving inside the card to tie it together- like a house that continues inside. Not too shabby for one layer!

End of Summer Camping

As Summer is wrapping up, my family has an annual camp out. I made this card as my "thank you" card to my Mother-in-Law for hosting us on their property. I used Lawn Fawn's Happy Trails stamps & dies for the camper & car along with the Love You S'more stamps & dies. I made the star background using Tim Holtz distress inks and white embossing of the Impression Obsession Cover-A-Card Stars background. Super fun card, but I made 4 like this and man that was a LOT of tiny tree die cutting! :) Inspired by Nichol Magouirk's card featured on the Lawn Fawn blog here.

Steampunk Spells

I loved Graphic 45's Steampunk Spells Halloween line last year- so much detail and such great designs! I made these super quick cards using the 3x4 cut aparts and the 8x8 paper pad.

Chillingsworth Manor

I still need to crank out a LOT more Halloween cards for this year! I made these quick 5 cards using last year's line Chillingsworth Manor by Echo Park. I used the 6x6 paper pad and the 12x12 cut apart card sheet. I love the olive green and pumpkin yellow in this line. I added a few extra stickers from my stash and I'm good to go!
