Happy Halloween!

Hi All - Snoopy, Woodstock and I are wishing you all a happy and safe Halloween.  Looking forward to spending the evening with my seven littlest goblins~

So, as promised I wanted to share my Halloween Shaker card with  you.   At my last Cards stamp camp we made this card - http://www.crazystampinglady.blogspot.com/2013/10/stamp-camp-card-2.html
I LOVE the negative images left when we punch things out, so I save the negative images from the card, and we made these adorable shaker cards.  It uses the single Halloween Happiness stamp.  I then cut down our clear envelopes to fit right over that stamped image and we filled the envelopes with chunky glitter and several different punched out shapes.

Then sealed the base layer, the clear envelope with shaker items, and the negative image layer, and taped it together all the way around with our Halloween washi tape.  I was really happy with how they turned out.

There are so many awesome way to make shakers and they are so much fun!  Hope you enjoyed!! ~Maureen

October technique Card

So this month for my club we did Shaker Cards.  For our technique instruction card for our binders I used the Blast Off set.  I don't have this set, so borrowed it from my daughter, Heidi.  But now I see it is stinkin' cute.  What a great little boy's birthday card this would make.  I just may have to invest in this set for myself.

We used the window sheets, and SU's shaker frames - which work perfect for shaker cards.  Inside - some dazzling diamonds - Moon Dust that has sneaked into the rocket ship :)

Stop back soon to see the Halloween card we made using a shaker card technique.  See you soon!  ~Maureen

October Hostess Gift

Today I'm sharing the hostess gift I made for my October Club Hostess - Sarah!  It starts like this -

And inside these four beautiful cards.  I was inspired by this card on Mary Fish's blog - Butterfly Card.  I love they way they turned out -the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die is the perfect die for a quick card.

Here's a close up of just one of them.  I really love how the pattern packs of DSP work for card sets like this.

Thank you Sarah - for being a great hostess - hope  you liked the cards!  ~Maureen

Stamp Camp Card 3

How about a nice cheery card for our third card this month.  We made this lovely and friendly HELLO card- and of course I love it - because it uses YELLOW!!!  This card uses the Flower Shop and Four You stamp sets.

We used the distressing tool to rough up the yellow edges and give it a little character.  Then colored our gems yellow with a sharpie to finish off the flower center.

Hope this card put a smile on your face - see you soon!  ~Maureen
