Ghost and Mummy

Stampin' Up Petite Purse die was used with Whisper White cardstock to create this mummy and ghost. I used some scraps of stitched white cotton ribbon (scavenged from packaging that tied down some Ikea Chair cushions). My husband must have thought I was a bit daft saving this at the time but it didn't stop me from adding it to my stash of oddball objects. You just never know when you might need these gems :)

Mr. and Mrs. Frank N. Stein

Frankenstein couple made from the petite purse die by Stampin' Up in Pear Pizzazz cardstock. I used some old square jumbo eyelets for the "bolts" on the necks.

Cat and Bat

More with the Petite Purse die from Stampin' Up. I have seen the bat idea before but thought I could easily adapt that to make a cat with a little rhinestone ribbon collar. Cardstocks used were Basic Black, Celery, and Pink Pirouette. The bat wings were embossed with the spider web folder, the cats ears are the wings from the bird punch.

Toxic Treats

Inspired by a project in the demonstrator's Stampin' Success magazine, I changed it a tiny bit from a treat bag to a card using the Natural Composition specialty paper, Toxic Treats stamp set with Apothecary Art framelits die, paper is SU (from the Doily design, do not know name), Paper Doily Sizzlits die.

Gingerbread Apron

Stampin' Up's new Scentsational Season and coordinating framelits for gingerbread images. I got this bundle just for the gingerbread man :) Stamped in Dusty Durango which is awesome for this particular stamp. I guess you could also use Tangerine Tango or More Mustard if you want to stay current. The baking sheet they are on is Brushed Silver cardstock. I cut out the apron shape and adhered to Sahara Sand card base and then cut out the arm areas on both sides so this will open up like a regular card. Added eyelets and narrow organdy ribbon (this was from a Saleabrations ribbon bundle), utensils are QuickKutz kitchen die, scallop border in Whisper White is a Martha Stewart punch. Paper is SU's Festival of Prints.

Copper Gratitude

Day of Gratitude stamp set with Autumn Accents framelits. For the copper cardstock, I used Glossy White and then spritzed on various inks by Tattered Angels to create an antique copper patina. Ran some of the leaves through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice folder. Copper cording and some non SU accents to embellish. Dusty Durango card base.
