Stampin' Addicts 2013 Fall Holiday Blog Hop Halloween Hello & Halloween Happiness


Welcome to the Stampin' Addicts Fall Holiday Blog Hop in which we've highlighted the FALL products from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog. (Be sure and join us on October 4 for the Winter Holiday Blog Hop too!) 

You've probably arrived from Tanya's Tinkerin' in Ink blog where she showed us just how gorgeous the Truly Grateful set can be.  Should you get lost or want to chat about the Hop, visit this thread on the Stampin' Addicts website for a complete list...

After seeing the Flip Flop card Shelli made at Convention in July with the Halloween Hello set (page 21) and new Circle Card Thinlits, I felt that I had to show something similar but different. I used the Label Card Thinlits with the Toil & Trouble stamp (page 20) for the front with the Witch and the Halloween Hello inside. For both the witches and the main image, I embossed with Black Craft Ink and Clear Embossing powder. I hope you like the simplified spinner card.


 
Next, I thought a small electric tealight cover/mini luminary would be cute....the skeleton is a little scary though...


Then I wanted to show a quick bagged treat for Halloween Night or maybe to take to a teacher. Oh, the potential sugary goodness!  I just colored our Black Chevron ribbon using a bit of water and drops of Pumpkin Pie reinker for a more seasonal look.


I also made this card for the MOJO Monday sketch...MOJO305...It uses the Halloween Hello single stamp...I cut it out and removed a few of the tendrils...I placed the Jack O' Lantern definition from the designer series paper in the top left corner too, but that's sort of hard to see.

Very cute, Rhonda! I'm a sucker for luminaries. Took me a minute to figure out how your spinner card opens... very clever!
