Halloween: Last One

This is the very last Halloween card I'll make for the year. Maya, a fellow SU Demonstrator inspired me on the colors and layout of this card (Thank You Maya).

Supplies:
Stamps: Batty for You, Tasty Sweet
CS: Summer Sun, Whisper White, Tangerine Tango, Black
Ink: Black
Accys: 1/4" Black Grossgrain ribbon, Dimensionals, Scallop punch, 1-1/4" Circle Punch, 1-3/8" Circle Punch, Sponge

He is the handsomest Frankenstein ever. I CASED him from a fellow SU Demonstrator who participated in a recent swap (Olive: you're the best!). The only change I made was to give him black hair instead of Plum (I didn't have Plum CS). Isn't he just cute? Of all the monsters, I love Frankie the best.
Supplies:
CS: Old Olive, Black, Whisper White, Going Grey
Ink: Old Olive, Stampin Write Pen Black, Signo Gel White Pen
Accys: My Way Punch, 1-3/8" Square Punch, 3/4" Circle Punch, 1-1/4" Circle Punch

Halloween Fun Projects


This "Spooky" jar is a rub on available only until the end of October. Isn't it cute? This is the large size. The jar is 14" high from the base to the top of the lid. 1/2" Striped Pumpkin Pie grosgrain is tied around the lid along with a "BOO" tag. The jar is filled with packing p-nuts to show off the spider. I really didn't want to be tempted with a jar full of candy.

This is also really cute to use for punch for a Halloween party (or try adding some dry ice to the punch for a really spooky effect! Cool!)
