TOXIC TREATS

Ok, I will admit, I totally stole this idea and tweaked them just a bit. I came across these wickedly cool candy pouches here.
I used: 3 x 5 3/8" envelopes (non SU!),  HOWLSTOOTH & SCARINGBONE #126906 DSP, retired MORE MUSTARD 1/4" grosgrain ribbon, BLACK & TANGERINE CS, LABELS FRAMELITS #125598, TOXIC TREATS STAMPS #127901, and retired More Mustard 1/4" grosgrain ribbon.  Regular size candy bars fit perfectly. They can be easily filled with other goodies.

GRATEFUL

Here's another color challenge card. Used Crumb Cake along with the 2 challenge colors.

Decided to use the new set WONDERFALL #128087. Misc SU! verse and background stamp used. Love the colors, layout, and speckled backgrounds.

I made the pumpkin decoration last yr. For sale for $20.00 if interested.

OLIVE... my MUMMY!

I recently came across a fantastic blog (http://stampinanne.blogspot.ca/) that lead me to a great weekly  color combination challenges using 2 colors (http://thedynamicduoschallenge.blogspot.ca/). The challenge uses Stampin' Up! colors (my favorite colors in the world) and the results are so creative. I enjoy browsing and decided to start playing along. I used to do various color challenges from other blogs but have not been doing a lot of stamping lately. I am ready for new weekly challenges and to get back to stamping on a more steady basis again.

Here are my projects using the Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive (love these colors alone and more so together). The finished card is 4x4 inches. I used the FANCY FAVOR BIGZ XL box die #115965, GOOGLY GHOULS #128063,  and LABELS COLLECTION FRAMELITS #125598

I added a handle using TASTEFUL TRIM BIGZ XL #120893 and inked DSP using RICH RAZZLEBERRY INK #126950

I outlined the mummy using OLD OLIVE marker. Pierced around label mount using PAPER PIERCING PACK #127857 (template). Added 1/4" old olive grosgrain ribbon (retired) to the top of the card. Cut out stamped bat and finished off with a google eye.
