Halloween Stamp Camp Project #1

Hey there stampers! Yes it has been a long time since I have posted a project or a card!  My life has become one hectic thing after another so of course it's the fun stuff that I don't have time to do!  You will have to forgive my horrid photos my camera has decided to not work and after messing with it for a long time I don't see it coming back to life anytime soon.  So I took pictures with my cell phone which leave something to be desired!
Today's project is from my Halloween Stamp camp.  I got the tins from the Dollar Spot at my local store and decorated them with a moon and bats made with the Bat Punch and the 1 3/4" Circle Punch.  The Pixie Sticks are topped with scallop circles with the Batty for You stamps on them.  Super Cute if I do say so myself ;)

Halloween Tags

Hey there stampers! Thanks for stopping by!

Today I have two tags that I made for a friend for her teacher gifts for Halloween.  I used the fabulous Two Tags Die so it made it super easy!

STEPS:

---

1. Die cut Only Orange card stock using the Two Tags Die and the Big Shot.
2. For the tag with the scallop, add Old Olive punched with the Scallop Circle Punch to the scallop.  Add a 1 3/8" Circle of Perfect Plum to the Olive Scallop Circle.  Stamp the Pumpkin from the Batty for You stamp set twice-once in Basic Black ink and once in Only Orange ink.  Punch the black one with the 1 1/4" circle punch and the orange one with the 1" Circle Punch and layer all together with a dimensional.  Stamp sentiment from the All Holidays stamp set in Basic Black.
3. For the folded flap tag ink the sentiment from the Hostess Level 1 set called Holiday Best using Stampin' Write Markers in Only Orange, Green Galore and Basic Black and stamp onto a Whisper White.  Round the corners with the Corner Rounder Punch and adhere to front flap of tag.  Add Ribbon.
   

Hope you are having a great day!

Hugs,

Happy Friday Everyone!

Hey there stampers! TGIF! Is it just me or are the weeks just flying by?  I can't believe it is October already!

Today's project is the Bag with Scallops Die that I left open instead of pinching closed and flipping the scallop part over.  These dies are so versatile-I love finding different ways to use them!

STEPS:

---

1. Die cut Old Olive using the Bag with Scallops Die and your Big Shot machine.  Using Sticky Strip put bag together without creasing the scallop part or the sides of the bag.
2. Adhere a thin strip of Basic Balck card stock around bag and add a panel of Cast-A-Spell DSP to front and inside of bag/box.
3. Stamp skull from batty for You stamp set in Craft White ink on Basic Black and again in Basic Black on Whisoer White.  Use the 1 " Circle Punch to punch out the skull from the Basic Black piece and the 1 3/8" Circle Punch to punch out the Whisper White one.  Adhere skull to center of White piece using a dimensional and add to Basic Black punched witht he Scallop Circle Punch. Adhere to top of bag.

Adhere to basket.
