Gently Falling Birthday Card


I made this birthday card for my husband's birthday today.  I used the SU Gently Falling stamp set.  I can't resist fall leaves.  This is my favorite season of the year with all the beautiful colors in nature.  I hope you enjoy looking. 

Recipe:  Textured Impressions Woodgrain folder, early espresso and crumb cake cardstock, Gently Falling and A Word For You stamps, more mustard, cajun craze and old olive ink pads.  I used a little hemp anda button from the naturals collection in crumb cake.

I can not take credit for this design.  I was inspired by Kay Koltoff, a fellow SU demonstrator.  You can find her beautiful work at stampingtoshare.com.

Artiste Coffin Halloween Treat boxes

I saw these cute Halloween coffin treat boxes cut from the Cricut Artiste cartridge and just had to make some of my own.  Hope you enjoy them. 


 
The coffins are cut at 5" out of SU DSP from the Howlstooth & Scaringbone paper pack and the Bold Brights DSP paper stack.  Stamps sets used are  Mixed Medley (Hostess set) and Teeny Tiny Wishes.  I also used lucky limeade 1/4" stitched ribbon.  In addition, I used a bit of baker's twine from the Ghoulish Ghouls bundle.  I hope the recipients will be very happy to receive them.  


Mixed Medley Ghoulish Halloween Treat Bags

I made treat bags for my grandchildren for their Halloween parties.  Here are some quick and easy bags.  I made 50 bags in just a couple of hours with the help of my eight-year-old granddaughter.  Hope you enjoy and get some inspiration.







Recipe: clear cello bags, black staz-on ink, Mixed Medley stamp set, Googly Ghouls stamp set, tangerine tango cardstock, confetti white cardstock, 3/4" circle punch, 11/4" scallop punch, Seasonal Sayings stamp set, Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP, classic black ink pad, tangerine tango classic ink pad, lucky limeade ink pad.
