TPV57 and SSS: Halloween card

Sharing another Halloween card.
Used K and Company's Spooktacular collection for the papers and border strips.
Stamped "BOO" in the background with Spiced Marmalade Distress ink
using Lawn Fawn's "Heebie Jeebies"



I used 3 different border strips from the pack and
raised the trick-or treater strip with dimensional foam.

Kitty Cupcakes... MEOW...

Made some cupcakes for the kids in our Bible study group. 
Thought they looked fun.


Not too hard...




I used:
cupcakes
chocolate icing
eyeball candies
chocolate bars cut into small triangles for ears
pull and peel licorice for whiskers
ready-made icing for nose and mouth


Heard that a lot of kitties mysteriously lost their ears BEFORE snack time... hmmmmm

They were inspired by Bakerella's website. 
Here's Bakerella's  version.  The kitty is also in the middle of this photo:




You may also enjoy my green monster cupcakes from last April shown HERE.

What yummy fall/Halloween treats have you made or plan to make?
Have a great day!

CCC79, PV and CC164: Fall Treat bags

Hi.
Sharing some treat bags I am making for my 3 year olds at church.
I found the poem on the Internet and changed a few words for their age level.



I'll write their name on that line beside the pumpkin.
so it will read "May God's light shine in _____".


The pumpkin was stamped in orange and brown and pieced together.  I used the tree leaf in the set to make a leaf for the pumpkin... little creative license, ha ha

L20 and PS67: Halloween card

Hi there.
Another Halloween card to share.
This one features 2 Lawn Fawn sets and 2 Hero Arts sets.
Lots of images paper pieced to create a not-so-spooky scene.


The sentiment is cut from a border strip from the K and Co. paper line.
The background is HA "Magical Background".


Bats raised with dimensional foam (my obsession) and I added glitter to the moon.
The moon was made with a 1" circle punch.

CI132 and SSS: Halloween card

Hello!
Sharing a Halloween card using K and Company's Spooktacular stack.
I distressed the edges of the purple mat for some texture.


I cut out the sentiment and spider out of extra paper and raised them with dimensional foam.
I added google eyes to Mr. Spider.



Such a cute variety of monsters in the stack of papers and the border strips.
Inspired by the Cupcake Inspiration challenge blog photo to mix and match them!



I am submitting this card into the following challenges:

I have attempted to make the kitties shown in the photo. 
I'll share them another time!   I must say, they aren't bad at all.
Actually look like kitties!
