Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!
We're looking forward to trick or treating tonight!
But first we are off to preschool!
I decided last minute to make 24 of these little kit kat holders for preschool.
Crazy? Yes!
Once you get a little assembly line going it goes pretty quick!

We made these in this months Stampin' Club.
You could also make them for Christmas, just change up the paper and add a Santa chocolate!
Have a Happy Halloween everyone!

Another 4 Year Old!

Our son's friend turned 4 this week also!
I had to use the cupcake from my new set Party Hearty!
I used Stampin' Write Markers to get all of the different colors.
(I love using markers for stamping!)
I also used my 2 way glue pen to adhere the chunky glitter to the cupcake.
The base of the card is Cameo Coral, Rose Red, and Pumpkin Pie.
I used those colors for the markers as well as Certainly Celery, So Saffron,
and Tempting Turquoise. The ribbon is Tempting Turquoise.

Oh, and I pulled out my Crimper for the Rose Red piece!

4th Birthday!

Our Little Man is now 4!
I can't believe it!
He had a wonderful party with friends and family!
I made this card for him using my new stamp set Party Hearty.
I used the colors Pacific Point, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red, Old Olive, cardstock and stampin' write markers. Bashful Blue marker. I used my new Scallop Edge punch on the Old Olive cardstock. 

I think I will get alot of use from this set, as it also has a cupcake in it too!



October's Club Meeting


We played with my new machine, The Big Shot, this month!
This little basket is one of the projects we made, using the die Baskets & Blooms in the holiday mini.
We used Ghostly Greetings Designer paper.
The Happy Halloween stamp is from the set House of Haunts.

I'm really liking this little machine, and want more dies!
My wish list just got bigger!!!!

September's Stampin' Club




Here are the cards we made at the last Stampin' Club Meeting.
This first card is called a free standing pop up card.
It folds up and fits into the medium envelopes.
The Eastern Blooms stamp set  was used and check out the new kiwi kiss ribbon!
It's kiwi kiss on one side, very vanilla on the other!

I wanted everyone to go home with a sample of all of the new in colors.
So here is the second card we made.
We used the Garden Whimsy stamp set. 
I'm looking forward to our October meeting, were we will be making some Halloween items using my new "Big Shot".
Happy Stampin'
