I love Wizard of Oz, Wicked and love the Stampin Up Wicked Cool stampset (no longer available) even more. So imagine my excitement when my sister/ upline taught me how to land the house on the Wicked Witch of the East. Just used a dauber to create the siding and the grass. Added a window pane complete with a spooky spider web.
Here’s hoping you have a Wicked Cool Halloween too.

Cammie recently taught a fabulous basic brayering class and afterwards I got the bug so we did a private brayered panel class afterwards. We created many different panels and challenged ourselves to complete the cards later. For this panel we brayered a spooky sky with a full moon and used the Toil and Trouble stampset #131724 from the Stampin Up holiday catalog.
Cammie created 2 similar cards but switched the color scheme and the orientation of the card to give completely different looks. Great minds think alike… Cammie also created a tombstone with a crow perched on top. She used an image from the now retired Monster Munchies stampset for the headstone and added punched chevrons using the Chevron border punch #132154 from the Stampin Up holiday catalog.
In case you missed what I did with my Toil and Trouble panel check out yesterdays post.

I made a tombstone from the Apothecary Accents #127003 and added a glittered crow. The crow is also from the Toil and Trouble set and I used the heat and stick powder #100625 and the ultra fine black glitter # 132206 and then hand cut him out and perched him on top of the headstone. Stay tuned tomorrow to see Cammie’s finished Toil and Trouble cards.

Today’s card is one of the cards from my Washi tape workshop. The card is super simple, I used the Witches Brew Washi tape #132156 to make bows from each of the 3 Halloween washi tape patterns from the Witches Brew collection in the Stampin Up holiday catalog. When making this card I learned pretty quickly that the stickiness needed to be taken away from the tape so I the embossing buddy #103083 came to the rescue. I added a sentiment from the Delightful Dozen #122652 stampset to complete the card.

Another Tuesday so that is exciting since Stampin Up adds new digital downloads to their site each Tuesday. Today’s post is a super quick post of a simple Halloween card that I made using My Digital Studio. I sent it off to the Stampin Up printing service and will add some “real” elements to the card front to create a Hybrid Halloween card for all my MDS customers.
Be sure to check out the newest downloads for MDS available on the Stampin Up site today

I made this cute little party favor for my recent washi workshop and filled it with Halloween candy. I started out by using the chevron Tag a Bag #131370 from the Stampin Up catalog then textured cardstock rectangles and stamped the Halloween Happiness #131859 single stamp from the holiday catalog. Each layer was secured with none other than a piece of the Witches Brew Washi tape #132156. This turned out so great and was a fun and inexpensive way to give a treat to someone special that I decided to make some extras to pass out to my special little trick or treaters.

Yes this is no trick I am giving you a treat by posting 2 posts in one day. I missed posting yesterday so my treat was to double post today. How fun that I also made it a trick or treat card. I used the now retired spider web folder to create the textured background. I then brushed the whisper white stamp pad across the web to add some fun. I used the new chevron Background punch from the Stampin Up Holiday Catalog to create a border and reveal the pumpkin pie card base. I added a label using the Chalk Talk stampset #130634 and the coordinating Chalktalk Framelit #129983. I topped the chalk talk label with a label stamped with the Tags 4 You stampset #132823 and punched it with the coordinating Label Bracket Punch #132153.
Both the Chalk Talk and Tags 4 You stampsets are available in a bundle with the coordinating framelit or punch. Purchasing them together as a bundle saves 15% Chalk Talk set and Framelit bundle is available in wood #132731 and clear #132730. The Tags 4 You stamp and punch bundle is also available in wood #133293 and clear #133294.

Here is the 2nd post for Halloween and boy does it scream Halloween and is Fang-tastic. Cammie made this spooky card for her Halloween cards this year. She thought it was a simple concept until she had to punch, then shape and stain 12 teeth per card but oh is it worth the effort. The fangs were punched using the Blossom Builder #121808 and the Bird Builder #117191 punches from the Stampin Up Annual catalog. Each tooth was meticulously cut to form the tooth and then stained with cherry cobbler ink. The I Vant was done in MDS and the U was stamped using the Morning Post Alphabet stamp set #126592.
So we vant you to have a happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! Today is my all time favorite Holiday and so I want to treat you all to 2 posts today. Yes 2 spectacular punch art cards- Mine and then later today Cammie’s devine Halloween card will be sure to delight you.
But until then I would like to introduce you to Jack. I love how he turned out and continue to amaze myself with how a simple stamp- free card can have such an impact. When I created my Jack from punches I knew this would be my favorite of the bunch until I got Cammie’s Halloween card in the mail. Stay tuned later today for another post. I promise it is not a trick!

By now my friends and family should be receiving their Halloween cards. I think I get worse every year and send out so many Halloween cards. This year I mailed 48 cards. Today’s card is one of my 4 major designs and it features the Bootiful Occasions stamp set #126597 from the Stampin Up Annual Catalog. When I first saw the Bootiful stampset I knew I had to order and knew I would be using it for Halloween. I layered the boot on the Delicate Doilies Sizzlet #126999 die. Background was created with various colors and sizes of circles to match the polka dots in the boot.
