No Tricks Just Treats - "floating" foiled clear toner sheet card

Happy Monday! (oxymoron?) Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I'm back today with another Halloween card. This card is relatively simple in its design, but still looks delightfully detailed!

Which witch is which? Witch Legs card featuring stamp and die set by Stamplistic

Hi! I'm back with another Halloween card blog post, and these may be my favorite Halloween cards yet! The cards I created feature the W.E. Legs (Witch Elf Legs!) stamp and 7-piece layering die set by Stamplistic. These cards were inspired by the wonderfully talented and always hilarious Ken Hess of Ken's Kreations. You can check out his YouTube video here.

Monogrammed Pumpkins! A Silhouette Cameo 3 vinyl project

I purchased my Silhouette Cameo 3 over a year ago and had yet to do any vinyl cutting projects. I've used my Cameo 3 plenty of times on paper projects (check out one of my latest blog posts to see a card I recently created). But this time I dared myself to step out of my comfort zone and create a beautiful fall home decor project!

Happy Haunting mixed media project featuring Spooky Halloween by Andrea Gomoll

A couple years ago, I was introduced to the beautiful artwork of Andrea Gomoll. I immediately fell in love with her style, especially the cute girls that she sketches. I just think they are so adorable! Many of these girls are available as clear stamps, and I just love them! You know I love coloring and to be able to bring colorful life into one of Andrea's sketches makes me so happy! Andrea also does fabulous mixed media artwork, and she inspired me to do the same with the Spooky Halloween girl clear stamp set.

Hey everybody! I'm back with another Halloween card - a really sweet Halloween card! It features the Sweet Tooth stamp and die set by Waffle Flower Crafts. This set was a limited edition set for Simon Say Stamp's STAMPtember event. I used a Z-fold card design that opens up to 12 inches wide to display a cute Halloween scene. Take a look in the video below:

Let's get SPOOKY - Take a look at Banner!

Remember that episode of Arrested Development where the Bluth family makes Michael a ridiculously childish banner? Now, every time I come across the word "banner" I can't help but remember the "Family Love Michael" banner they made and Gob yelling, "Take a look at Banner Michael!" (And yes, I did re-watch that episode while writing this post!) I mention all this hilarity because I made a banner of my own - for Halloween!

Frightful Fun 4 Card Set

You know, there's nothing like a good set of coordinating cards, I always say. Well, I don't think I always say that, but I still think it's true! Because once I had my hands on the Simon Says Stamp Frightful Fun stamp set, I knew it was the perfect stamp set to make a coordinating set of cards! The images feature the most adorable critters and creatures and "punny" Halloween sentiments. Here is a set of 4 super, super, super cute, Copic-colored Halloween cards. I hope you like them!

BOO to you! An Action Wobbles card

When it comes to Halloween, I am definitely a "cute Halloween" person, not a "scary Halloween" person, and the Halloween cards I make are no exception. This one features the cutest little ghost (who has a not-so-scary secret!) Keep reading to the end to find out what it is!

Digital stamps and the Silhouette Cameo 3 - A coffee card from Graciellie Design

So I've been having a lot of fun playing around with digital stamps. (Check out this blog post or this one to see previous projects I've made with digital stamps!) I decided to step things up a notch by using a digital stamp with the Print & Cut feature on my Silhouette Cameo 3. I'm so glad I tried this out! It was fast and easy and gave me the perfect cut to make this super, yummy, delicious coffee card!
