Holiday Hop Halloween

All Aboard!!! The train is leaving the station and you are now along from the ride. Welcome to the Holiday Hop!!! A bunch of my very talented Stampin' friends and I have decided to take you on a hop through our blogs. This hop will take place once a month and feature a different theme each time. Of course, it only makes sense that this month's theme is Halloween. I decided to do a two for one - a card and gift box. The card was inspired by the Clean & Simple FTL #63. I love these clean and simple layouts.

  • A2 card in Whisper White
  • Two layers of Cast-a-Spell DSP. I actually used the front and back of the same DSP for a coordinating double layer.
  • Sentiment which is from Teeny Tiny Wishes is stamped in Whisper White Craft ink
  • The tag was made with nestabilities and my Big Shot
  • The bat and spider were adhered with dimensionals after being cut with the Cricut

  • The box is made from four scallop envelopes. It is so quick and easy. Check out Mary's tutorial here.
  • I used Basic Black and more Cast-a-Spell DSP
  • I used the same sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes in Whisper White on Basic Black. This time I punched it with the Word Window Punch
  • Two small cello bags filled with candy corn, tied with ribbon with Trick and Treat stamped in Basic Black on Old Olive. I punched out the sentiment with a Wide Oval Punch to make a perfect gift tag. TIP: Use punches to make cute tags.
Hope you enjoyed my Halloween creations. Now it's time for you to check out the next stop. Just click on the link for next blog, The Stampin' Bean and off you go. Hop along now, but do come back again.
