Fall Fest Set

 Hello & Happy Tuesday!

The last several days have been quite dreary & wet here in PA. Today is to be another wet one and maybe by Wednesday the sun will shine again! Fingers crossed!

Today I have set # 21 to share with you and this set is Fall Fest from 2014.

If I remember correctly this was my very first photopolymer stamp set and I had one heck of a time getting a good image when I tried stamping with ink. 9 years later I think those images stamped so much better because I used the foam pad under my cardstock. These turned out super cute and not scary at all.  I used paper from the Motley Monsters DSP again. I am down to very small scraps now which might be good for a single card or 2. Not enough for a full set which is a super good feeling to use it up!

Card Details:

Stamps: Fall Fest (retired-2014)

Ink: Crushed Curry, Tangering Tango (retired), Sahara Sand (retired), Basic Black Archival (retired)

Cardstock: Crushed Curry, Basic White, Tangerine Tango (retired), Motley Monsters DSP (retired-2014)

Accessories: Fall Fest Framelits, Stitched With Whimsy Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Linen Thread, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I did not add a sentiment on the front. I will let it blank until they are needed.

Halloween Mini Treat Bags

Hello & Happy October 1st!

Today since it is the 1st of October and it's the month of Halloween, I am going to start sharing the goodies that I made. I've been so excited to share these! Hope you will love what you see!

Up first is the Halloween Mini Treat Bags that I used the Mini Treat Bag Framelits to make. Another one of Stampin Up's awesome dies! I have a pull out tag in mine but will also add a snack size Kit Kat Candy Bar. You could always add a few bucks or a gift card as well as fill with some yummy candies. The possibilities are endless!

These were all so much fun to make! 

I also want to add that these Mini Treat Bags will fit in a normal A2 sized envelope so you could send to family or friends....just can't fill it with candy to do that!

Halloween Mini Treat Bags:

Stamps: Howl O Ween Treat, Sweet Hauntings, Fall Fest, Teeny Tiny Wishes

Ink: Basic Black, Tangerine Tango

Cardstock: Happy Hauntings DSP, Motely Monsters DSP, Basic Black, Tangelo Twist, Tangerine Tango, Whisper White, Black Glimmer Paper

Accessories: Mini Treat Bag Framelits, Circle Nestibilities, Note Tag Punch, Fun Fall Framelits, Itty Bitty Banners Framelits, Basic Black, Crushed Curry, Tangerine Tango Baker's Twine, Tab Punch (retired), Rhinestones, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, 2 Sided Tape, Tombow Liquid Glue

That's all for today!

Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!

Halloween Tissue Box

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

I spent the day working on things for my upcoming craft shows! Boy, i'm tired! 

Anyways, before I head off to bed I wanted to share my Halloween Tissue Box that I finished up after supper tonight. I used a new stamp set from Stampin Up called Fall Fest. I had some issues using it being that it is a polymer set and I have never had any luck using that type of stamp. I put a HELP call out on Facebook and got quite a few suggestions, one being to take an eraser over the stamp image to take off the goop that is on it from the manufacturer. Worked like a charm and I had much better results! Thanks ladies!

So here is my tissue box.....

This fits over top of a cube box of tissues and this will sit proudly in my living room on the coffee table! I'm quite pleased with it!

Halloween Tissue Box:

Stamps: Fall Fest, SU Sentiment

Ink: Tangerine Tango, Garden Green SU Marker, Black Stazon

Cardstock: Tangerine Tango, Sahara Sand, Whisper White, Motley Monsters DSP

Accessories: Fall Fun Framelits, Oval Nestibilities (opening on top of tissues), Circle Nestibilities, Bitty Banners Framelits, Candy Corn Glitter Buttons, White & Tangerine Two Toned Twine, Dimensionals, Liquid Multi Mono Adhesive
