Be Creative Stamping

Take A Spin

Good Morning Stampers!  Here's another awesome stamp set from the New Occasions Mini!  It's called Take a Spin and can be found on page 10.  These stamped images can be used for just about any occasion.  I decided to make a Valentine's Day Card.  Best of all, you don't have to cut out the circle shaped images.  Stampin' Up! has done it again with the 2 1/2" Circle Extra-Large Punch!

Halloween Treats

Good Morning Stampers! Guess what I've been doing!  These 3D Halloween Treats for my Halloween Stamp Class for Kids this Sunday afternoon at 2 pm!

Halloween Class for Kids!

Most of these seasonal treats are using the Wicked Cool and Dark & Dreary stamp sets. I also used the Big Shot/Two Tags die to create and stamp the tags.  If you are one of my local customers, please let me know if your child will be attending.  I'll need to cut and prep all the necessary supplies before Sunday.

If you're interested in a Halloween Kit, please let me know.  I can send you all the consumable supplies (test tube, card stock, designer paper, punched bats, 2 clear bags, various sizes of ribbon, cauldron, cello bag).  Per Stampin' Up!'s guidelines, I can not stamp any of the products. Candy is not included.  Kits will not mail until the first of next week!

If you would like to purchase the Halloween Kit, please pay via PayPal. You'll also receive the fall Be Creative Card of the Month (pictured at the top of my blog).

 

I'm excited to announce my 12 Days of Christmas Newsletter--coming to you on December 1st-12th!! Each day I hope to inspire you with a quick holiday tip and stamped paper craft (card or 3D item) idea.  So, join the fun!! Just sign up for my newsletter, so you'll receive this special addition of My 12 Days of Christmas.  If you already receive my newsletter, you don't need to sign up for a second time, you'll automatically receive it.

Halloween Treats

 

Here's a couple of Halloween treats that I'm preparing for my Teen Stampin' Club. The test tube gift card holder is sure to be a hit with the teenagers!  Also pictured is the Candy Wrapper made with the Big Shot.  It's the Candy Wrapper Bigz L Die in the Holiday Mini on page 10.  It's easy to roll through the Big Shot, fold on the score lines, fill with sweet goodies, and presto! you've got a quick treat!

 

I embellished this treat bag of eyeballs with the Decorative Label Punch (#120907), Seasonal Sentiments (wood mount #120821, clear mount #121130), and Wicked Cool (wood mount #118738, clear mount #120600) stamp sets!

 

Here's my pumpkin patch!  I used the Two Tags Bigz Die and Big Shot to create this fun gift tag.  I have 3 pumpkins (thus my pumpkin patch), the bats stamped along the top (Wicked Cool), and the bitty bat punch (#119279) with glue dot.  I believe the pumpkin stamp set was in last year's Holiday Mini.  It is current on My Digital Studio.

Have a great day and I'll hope you'll join me tomorrow!
