Wonderfully Wicked ~ Storybook Fancy Fold

1 Comment

welcome back to my corner of the world.

Happy Halloween!  hard to believe we are at that time of year again – later today we will have the ‘littlies’ come knocking at the door to collect their candy (sweeties)  We just love to see them in their costumes.  It is due to be a cold evening so we shall be wrapped up ourselves waiting for them to come by.

So here is my final Halloween card for 2019 using the Storybook fun fold paired with some of the Monster Bash Suite of products from the 2019 Holiday catalog and a video to show how everything goes together.

Wonderfully Wicked with Woodland Embossing

welcome back to my corner of the world

So here we are – October 2nd!  although here in North Texas it is hard to believe it as we continue to have temperatures in the mid 90’s and have only had rain twice in the last 9 weeks!  As many of you know I originally came from south-west England some 18 years ago, before we came to this part of the world I never would believe I would ever WISH for rain!!!

As this is the start of October I am sharing a Halloween card using the Wonderfully Wicked Stamp Set from the 2019 Holiday Catalog.  As I write this post, Brian (best beloved!) is  putting out the Halloween decorations in the front garden. Continue reading →

Happy Halloween Everyone ~ we are due rain later today which might just put a bit of a damper for the trick and treaters this evening.  But I have the sweeties (candy) ready plus my witch’s broom and hat that I put just outside the door to show the ‘Witch is IN!’ (seriously I do have them)

Today’s card is one we made during my September card class and is a waterfall card – I will have a video ready soon on my method for making them – so watch this space 🙂

Cauldron Bubble – Happy Halloween

Leave a comment

We are less than a week from Halloween and time for a seasonal card!  I made this particular card at a meeting held by my Stampin’ UP! Mum and it was designed by one of my Stampin’ Sister’s Tricia.  That is what is so fabulous about being a Stampin’ UP! demonstrator – we meet and share in  craft that we love.

The card showcases the lovely products in the Toil and Trouble Suite.  The stamp set we used is Cauldron Bubble and it has a coordinating die set called Cauldron Framelit Dies, (buy as a bundle and save 10%) which we used to cut the little kitty kat from the Black Foil Sheets – all available in the 2018 Holiday Catalog (contact me if you would like a copy!)
