I mentioned yesterday that I had used the Kraft Gift Boxes (#124106 on page 15 in Stampin' Up!'s Holiday Mini Catalog) to make a gift box for Halloween so here it is. The top of the box is covered with Silver Glimmer Paper (#124005). I wish you could see it 'in person' ~ the sparkle is AMAZING! (I have used it on another project that I can't wait to show you ~ soon! In fact, I will be using it a lot as we get closer to the holidays!)
I used two different stamp sets, the one stamped on the top of the box is Scaredy Cat (#122557) and I know you know WHY I HAD to order that one!!!! It is our Jupiter on the top of the box!
The other stamp set is Wicked Cool (#118738) which I used on the sides of the box. Let me know if I can help you with any Halloween needs and thanks for stopping by today!
Our Halloween Card Class on Saturday morning was lots of fun ~ each person made two each of the cards that I am posting today. Enjoy! If you have any questions, just give me a call, 587-1548. Thanks for stopping by!
This is a 'sour cream' treat container. It is really cute up close but really hard to take a picture of because it is such a strange shape! Thanks, Phyllis!
These are treat toppers using Stampin' Up!'s new Cellophane Bags. I think I mentioned them in another post. The number to order the bags is #124134 and they are 1" x 8". You get 50 for $2.50. We put Halloween pencils (2) in each of the bags. The pencils were at my $ Store on Little Creek ~ 12 pencils for $1 ~ good deal. I think that's what I will hand out for Trick or Treat! Let me know if you would like to order some.
I can't wait until tomorrow morning and my Halloween card class. Halloween is such fun and I am looking forward to everyone attending making their cards to put in the mail for their friends. So, Wanda, Sharon, Nickie, Sarah, Connie and Lee ~ see you tomorrow!
Here are some samples from other Demonstrators that I found on line and thought you would like to see ~ great ideas for your cards using Stampin' Up! stamp sets. Let me know if I can help you with your crafting ~ I am here for you!
The last one is a topper for a treat bag. The bags themselves are in Stampin' Up!'s Holiday Mini Catalog ~ Cellophane Bag, #124134, 50 bags for $2.50. It is a long skinny bag, 1" x 8" so it is great for M & M size candies. Tomorrow we are using these bags for Halloween pencils.
Don't you just love this Halloween plate? It is an easy peasy way to decorate for the upcoming scary event (or, at the Morton home ~ just a reminder of our black cat, Jupiter!). Shelli Gardner, CEO of Stampin' Up! created this plate using the Frightful Sight Decor Elements on page 228 in the Idea Book & Catalog. It comes in either black or orange and there are five images for $11.95. You'll love our decor elements as there is such a variety of images in vinyl and they are easy to apply and easy to remove when you want to make a change. And, now....JUPITER!

There are so many products in Stampin' Up!'s Mini Catalog to make October a really fun month! You can find the SPOOKY THINGS DECOR ELEMENTS (#120909) on page 8. I have used a lot of them in The Cat/Art Studio and I am saving those darned spiders for the front door. I guess it is time to put them up. As you might have guessed, spiders are not my favorite thing!
Everyone in my STAMP CLUBS made the boxes below as one of their September Projects. If you would like instructions, email me. And if you are interested in a Stamp Club let me know. I have an opening and would love to have you join us once a month for some stamping fun. I will be starting a SCRAPBOOK CLUB in January (to meet every other month) so let me know if you are interested in that one too!.
Tomorrow I will announce the winner of this week's BLOG CANDY ~ you still have time to enter in the fun ~ just leave me a comment today!
I made a set of four framed autumn leaves for my friend, Phyllis, and gave them to her for her birthday in August. I thought you might like to see one of the four. The frames were all classic, like the one above, but with different finishes. I used our Autumn Traditions designer series paper (page 160 in the IBC) and the stamp set Autumn Splendor from the Holiday Mini Catty. I embossed the leaves using metallic embossing powder, cut them out and mounted them on the paper. She has them in her stamp room so I guess she liked them ~ you could make them easily as a hostess gift for Thanksgiving!!! Susan Elise and Princess Calico
