Happy Halloween

The card I'm showing you today was for our Card Swap Group and the theme was autumn.  

As we had been away for 3 weeks to Disney in Florida I had to get my skates on when we returned.  This was simples simples but such a lot of fun to do and I made two the same.  One of the girls got a wrong steer in the group and I ended up receiving two cards this month! So thought it only fair to give her one from me as well. 

I used one of the fabulous hostess sets for my autumnal branches.  It's called Bloom With Hope and has lovely sentiments with it.  I turned the branch into autumn using my Blendabilities (and a pair of reading glasses!). A mat of gold really helps bring the warmth from the colours.  Some Linen Thread for the natural feel and a birdie out of a retired set of clips.  I've seen a few robins going  about lately so thought he was a good accessory to use.  Perfect Pennants gave me the perfect sentiment! 

As yesterday was Halloween I thought I'd share a little pic from our hols. 

Happy Halloween!

This was taken at Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. We got ready at the park so it was a quick face paint job in the ladies for me!

Hope your night wasn't too spooky.

Halloween Spooky Monster Milk Cartons

Thought I'd share with you the little treat boxes I made for my guests last Sunday.  Everyone got a spookily made over Milk Carton.  The Mummy shows you how they were closed at one end to allow either some Dolly Mixtures or Midget Gems to come out of the spout. 

I've seen these all over the internet so I'm not laying claim to the designs.  The Mummy's bandages were sponged with some Basic Grey Ink and various circle punches for the peeping eyes.  For the pumpkin I've used the Bird Builder punch for his leaves and the petite Pennant builder punch for his mouth.

These two are my favourites.  Frankenstein and a One eyed monster.  Again just used circle punches for the eyes and the Petite Pennant Punch for the teeth and hair one my one eyed monster. 

These two are actually the first designs I made.  The bat and ghost are both from the Owl Builder punch.  I did say before that this punch is versatile!  The bat carton has some spooky harvest moons on its side and the ghost carton has haunted house windows. 

I've now to fill up more of these for Halloween before I eat said sweets! 

I'm going to put these into Addicted to Stamps and More which this week is addicted to Halloween. 

Have a not so spooky day and weekend. x

Boo

I've never sent a Halloween card but wouldn't it be so much fun to.  Think how creative you could be!

Here I have made a set of little treat bags.  Something a little different to hand out to trick or treaters at the door.

The pumpkins, ghosts and bat have all been made by using Stampin' Up! punches.  I think I will use  some of these elements on my Halloween scrapbook pages this year.
