For now, if you do not see the video embedded in this post, just click the photo image to view the video. Thanks for your understanding.

Halloween Ghost Treat Box ~ Weekly Wed. #34

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards, Fun Fold Cards, Paper Crafting Ideas, Weekly Wednesday Videos / October 16, 2024

Happy Wednesday all. Halloween is only 15 days away and it’s time to start thinking about those special Halloween treats. Every year I try to create something special for my little neighbor friends. I don’t send many Halloween cards, but it is fun to create a special treat box each year. My video features a Halloween Ghost Box, but stay tuned to the end of this post for a fun witch box. I am still having issues with YouTube. If the video does not display click the image below for video. CLICK HERE for my YouTube Channel.

Here are the supplies I used for today’s project.

Basic Black CS-(Box) 5 ½ x 7
Halloween DSP- 1 ¾ x 7
Basic White -(tag) ¾ x 3
Spooky Treats Stamp Set-Paper Pumpkin September 2022
Memento Black Ink

So I decided to make my second box a little more girly. I used the exact same method for creating the box, but switched out the stamp set. I used the witches feet from Bewitching (retired set) and the witches hat punch (also retired). I think both boxes turned out so stinkin’ cute. So use whatever Halloween stamp set you have or click here to shop for our current Halloween collection.

I hope you have fun creating those special Halloween Treat Boxes. Happy Stamping!

Paper Pumpkin Alternative ~ Fun Fact Friday!

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards, Fun Fact Friday, Paper Pumpkin / October 11, 2024

Did you know that real pumpkins are good for you? They are about 80-90% water making them low in calories. One cup of pumpkin contains 3 grams of fiber and no fat or cholesterol. Each pumpkin produces about 500 seeds which are also a healthy choice. And if you live in the mid-west, you are in luck. Illinois is the largest produces of pumpkins in the United States.

While today’s projects features some of the stamps from our September 2024 Paper Pumpkin Kit, you cannot eat them. But, having a paper pumpkin kit delivered to your door monthly, might improve some crafting therapy and improve your mood, especially after all the supplies are used, you still have the stamp set to create amazing cards.

Here is a look at the stamps that came in the 2024 September Paper Pumpkin Kit.

And here is the card I created using one of the leaves from this set.

I used Old Olive ink and randomly stamped about 9 leaves going in a circle. I love the leaves and the vine branch in this set. Not to mention I think the with thanks and thinking of you will be two greetings that are well used. The splatter of dots is from the Nested Friends stamp set and is stamped with Early Espresso ink.

Each month, the project in the box changes, usually to match the season.

If you think this card looks different than the sample in the video, you are not wrong. I needed a thinking of you card for a friend, so I changed the greeting before I scanned my original.

I did not pop up my greeting, but that would be an option as well. So many choices! Love it!

Autumn Leaves-Fun Fact Friday!

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards, Fun Fact Friday, Thank You / September 27, 2024

Did you know that a study in the Journal of Aging Research found that babies born during the autumn months are more likely to live to 100 than those born during the rest of the year. Who knew. Their study found that 30% of US centenarians born during 1810-1895 were born in the autumn months. I am not sure how accurate these statistics are for today, but it is interesting. While there is not an official study, I believe that people born in the spring tend to have a sunny disposition. Fun Fact: I was born in April. LOL

Today’s card celebrates all those beautiful people born in the fall. Hope you have a blessed weekened!

Even though my birthday is not in the fall, I do love the fall season. The changing of leaves, the cooler weather, those crisp cool night by the fireplace. There is just something comfortable and cozy about fall. Happy Stamping!

The Beauty of Autumn!

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards / November 22, 2023

Wow, it is so hard to believe that tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I am blessed to be able to spend some quality time with my daughter. Seems like only yesterday that she was still in high school and now she is living on her own in Chicago, so I cherish all her visits.

For today’s card I created a strip of designer series paper using the leaves from the Autumn Leaves bundle. I used the larger leaf and stamped in Old Olive and Cajun Craze ink. I stamped the smaller leaves with Cajun Craze ink and used the coordinating dies to crop and attach them to the greeting.

The greeting is stamped with Early Espresso ink and cropped with the frame from the Autumn Leaves Bundle. The dots from the Layering Leaves stamp set and are stamped with Cajun Craze ink. I attached the leaves and the greeting to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I hope this card puts a smile on your face and that your Thanksgiving is filled with lots of turkey, laughter, and the love of family. Happy Stamping!
