I don't "do" Halloween but I just love the stuff you can make for it, so when I decided I couldn't resist the Spooky Fun Stamp Set, from the Autumn-Winter catalogue I knew I would have to make something with it.
As cards weren't appropriate I decided to order the Halloween Night Speciality Designer Series Paper and to try my hand at a sampler. Although the paper is Halloween based as it is double-sided there is a good supply of background papers that can be used after Halloween has been and gone.
I started with a base of paper mounted on a layer of Basic Grey cardstock and then layered nine smaller squares mounted on Basic Black cardstock. On top of these I used the stamp set to make little pictures. I layered some of the sentiments on Pumpkin Pie and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper and added some bits and pieces from my crafty stash .
I had made my sampler to fit into an Ikea Ribba Frame and the whole thing is now sitting on my mantelpiece looking good, even if I say so myself.
As always if you need any Stampin' Up! supplies my contact details and online shop are shown above and you can also download a catalogue but if you prefer the real thing to flick through give me a shout and I'll get one to you.
If you are ordering less than £150 please use my hostess code and then everyone that orders this month gets a little free gift from me.
Please don't use this code for orders over £150 because you will qualify for your own rewards.
Happy Stamping
