Hello Stampers!
Door art is a very popular item for all the seasons! It’s no different for Halloween, and Stampin’ Up! can help! The Frightful Wreath Simply Created Kit is only $26.95 and includes the supplies to make this wreath. (You’ll also need a glue gun, a couple of stamp pads and a Halloween stamp set.) I used the Holiday Invitation set featured on page 49 of the Holiday Catalog, but the Frightful Wreath works well, too.
Here’s a link to a video that will help you put this kit together. Click here.
Enjoy!

Hello Stampers!
I couldn’t resist purchasing the Tee-Hee-Hee stamp set from Stampin’ Up!’s Holiday Catalog. The sayings are just too fun!
- People Call Me a Witch … Like It’s A Bad Thing.
- My Other Car Is A Broom!
- Witching You A Happy Halloween!
- If the Hat Fits …
- Whether You’re A Good Witch Or A Bad Witch It’s All About The Shoes
I choose a simple layout featuring the shoes stamped in Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive. I layered card stock with these same colors and topped it off with a bit of Old Olive Baker’s Twine.
Take a peak at the photopolymer Tee-Hee-Hee set in the Holiday Catalog on page 47.

Hello Stampers!
Isn’t it cool that the Gift Card Enclosures from page 194 of Stampin’ Up!’s annual catalog can be turned into this cute and functional gift packet? They are a great deal at only $5.95 for a 10-pack. I put a frosted sugar cookie (in one of SU!’s cello bags tied with Blackberry Berry Bliss satin ribbon) in this packet, but it also holds a set of note cards and envelopes or candy bars or other small gift items. We made a version of this at convention this summer.
To create the pocket, you’ll need to score (either with your Stampin’ Trimmer or your Simply Scored) one-half inch in from the fold line on three sides. Adhere with Sticky Strip and you’re ready to decorate.
I used the Color Me Autumn Designer Series Paper, Holiday Invitation Stamp Set, Blackberry Bliss Stitched Satin Ribbon, and the Autumn Wood Elements.
Enjoy!

Hello Stampers!
One of my husband’s biking buddies is celebrating a birthday, and we needed something appropriate all the “boys” could sign. (It’s a significant birthday, but we wanted no mention of that.)
I CASEd (Copy and Shared Everything) a swap card I received from Jamie at Stampin’ Up!’s Inspire. Create. Share. in Salt Lake City this summer. It features the hostess set Life’s Adventure. (Host a party and earn benefits to “purchase” this set at a reduced cost.) I have lots of dates available in the next couple of months!
The base is Crumb Cake Card Stock embossed with the Chevron Embossing Folder. The bicycle (punched out with the 2 1/2-inch circle punch and sponged with Crumb Cake ink) is colored with Pool Party and Crushed Curry to coordinate with the Beach House Washi Tape. The sentiment — very appropriate for both biking and birthdays — is stamped on a small Crushed Curry banner and accented with a bit of Linen Thread.
