Mixed Medley and Toxic Treats for Halloween

 

Have you earned the hostess set Mixed Medley yet? The spider web and this sentiment are both in that set. I chose the colors for this Halloween card from Pals Paper Arts Challenge #142. Inlinkz will close at noon (CST) Thursday, September 13.

 

I started with a Very Vanilla base and used the colors above, the Wood Grain and Square Lattice embossing folders, Wacky Wishes (in Elegant Eggplant), a rhinestone and 1/2" striped satin ribbon, along with Limited Edition dsp.

 

 

I used my bone folder to give the banners a little curl.  I love this sketch - it's from Try Stampin' On Tuesday Challenge 82. You have till Sept. 11 at 8 a.m. (EST) to add a project.

 

 

But wait, there's more! Since this is a Halloween card, I'm adding this to The Great Pumpkin Blog Hop!

 

Each week, you're invited to add your Halloween creation to my blog hop, along with the code near the bottom of each post. When you add the code to your blog while you are in the edit HTML mode, your readers can play along, leave comments, and view the samples right from YOUR blog!

At the end of 13 weeks, I'll be giving one person a $50 Stampin' Up! gift certificate! The more times you enter the blog hop, the better your chances of taking home the Grand Prize. You also get a ticket just for displaying The Great Pumpkin Blog Hop badge on your blog. Whoo hoo!

Frightening Feline with Mixed Medley for fun Halloween card

How cute are these two little stamps? They are from the Mixed Medley hostess set in the Holiday Catalog. I received this set FREE along with 3,700+ other demonstrators at Stampin' Up!'s Convention 2012, and used the 3/4" circle punch and 1" scallop punch to cut them out.

I love this Frightening Feline single stamp in the Holiday Catalog. I stamped it in Basic Black ink and clear embossed it. That yummy designer paper is from the Howlstooth and Scaringbone pack. Here's the sketch I used from Mary Jo at Technostamper. I flipped it on its side, using the wide oval punch with the reverse side showing.

You have till Sunday to add your card to Technostamper. It can be any theme or color you like! I'm just excited about Halloween! I've got my own Halloween blog hop starting tomorrow, so I hope you'll join in. Hey - maybe you can make a card for both blog hops!!! It's 2 for the price of 1 (well, they're both free).
