Happy Haunting

10/12/2021

It's time to mix it up this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #528 - let's work in some extra folds! I'm also adding a Halloween flavor for our seasonal challenge at SU Only #286, too!
This was a real tough one for me, because I didn't get ANY of our new Halloween sets this year (shhh!) Fortunately, the ever-versatile Banner Year set has me covered! There were even enough spooky details to choose from that I was able to add the secret flap for an extra BOO to go with - we did it all today! I found some cute haunted DSP in my retired stash, called Painted Autumn, that had a whole sheet left of these lovely pumpkins - just the right size for a little jack o' lantern face! Woo!
I can't wait to see YOUR projects for all these challenges - meet you there!

Gosh, I hope I have something for this challenge - Cardz 4 Guys #275 is doing a "key" challenge!
OK, I went digging and found a little leftovers pack of Bird Ballad Trinkets - there were keys in that! That reminded me that the DSP that went with had a "key" sheet, so I pulled that out, too. Hm, lots of green - what sentiment could go with that?? Eventually I ran down my Spooktacular Bash Set from 2019 - it has that "open" sentiment, which I thought went with keys, lol. So this turned out to be a Halloween card - who knew?? Such a fun treasure hunt!

Fall Fest

So fun - Retro Rubber #146 has a "scary color" challenge for us this week - so glad I can go back through my oldies for this one!
I finally settled on my fave pumpkins in Fall Fest from 2014. These faces have so much character! I did them up in three different "oranges" and blackened the stems with a marker to stay with the color challenge of Black, White and Orange. They all get to float over a spooky embossed Woodland, and yell out "Boo!" from our Playful Alphabet. I even have a great sentiment on the inside, from the ancient Jack O' Lantern Fun, which I couldn't even FIND on Splitcoast, but says 1999 on the labels - yikes!

More Treats

Oo, I have another chance to make something spooky, for In{k}spire Me #432!
After dithering a bit, I decided to crank out some Takeout Treats, from the retired bundle of 2018 - it did NOT stick around long enough! Yes, we will be "handing" out treats this year, I have a whole one-way pick-up and self-serve line planned out for the tiny kiddos on our street, so I needed to make some cute little single-serving packaging that they can snag - so fun! Fortunately, this set has the Halloween sentiment ready to go, and I have plenty of retired spooky DSP to use up, too. We'll have a folding chair viewing station off to the side for us, too, so we can see the ghoulie cuties while we sip our adult beverages, lol. Glad to be able to add some spook for our neighborhood!

Wow, VERY dramatic combo over at this week's Fusion "Purple Night" challenge!
I'm such a purple fiend, I knew I needed to work that in, so when I gave both sides of the "fusion" a go, I did these pretty purple DSP stripes on one edge. I was pleased to be able to bring out my Woodland embossing folder, too - it hasn't been out in quite a while! Then I decided a sparkly silver moon was what was missing, lol. Scrappy AND fun!

Yay! We have a spooky color combo for you this week at Fab Friday #200 - hope you can join us for our big milestone!
With these fun colors, how could I NOT go Halloween? I decided to pull out some dancing skeleton faves from my past Paper Pumpkins! The skeletons and bones are from last year's Bone Appetit in September, and the sentiment is from way back in 2014 - September's Boo-tiful Bags. - A spooky combo for sure! I decided to create my own background by playing with our colors, and topping it all off with the "BOO!" I even had some glitter dots and twine in Garden Green - excellent! I sure hope you can play along with us - see you at the challenge!

Check it out! Hand Stamped Sentiments #349 has some spooky inspiration for us this week!
I couldn't help but focus on that saucy skeleton in the corner - any chance to pull out my old Mr. Funny Bones set! I was pretty straightforward today, piecing him together giving us a wave - or rather, a "high" five, yuk, yuk. This set has a few punny sentiments in it - I don't think I've ever used this one, lol. Had to give him a little Spider Trinket buddy, too - so glad I got my decorations up already!

I love the layout this week at our Try Stampin' on Tuesday #478 - don't you want to play along?
We have a spooky theme going as well, so let's just go hunting to see how much of my old Monster Bash Suite I can find, lol. Stamp set? Check! DSP? Check! Dies? Check! Embellies? Check, check! I really went all out on this one, lol. I had enough scraps to piece together our sketch, and then I pulled in my fave image from this set, the scary jars. I felt like this dare of a sentiment was perfect!
I can't wait to see YOUR creations - come be spooky with us!

Halloween Hi

Woo hoo! Time for another "anything goes" challenge over at Retro Rubber #144!
Today, I finally settled on 2009's The More the Merrier. I almost always go for the cute snow-dudes in this one, or the fancy cupcakes, but these cute jack o' lanterns leapt out at me this time! Just started watching my seasonal round of Halloween shows yesterday on Food Network, and I kind of have pumpkin on the brain, now! I felt like fussy cutting, too, so I colored them all in, did the deed, and floated them all over a layer of Basic Black - they're jumping off the card! Such a fun Halloween warm-up, ahh, it's almost spooky time!

OK, super nifty - check out that adorable pumpkin diorama at this week's Fusion Card Challenge! I might have to make one of these, lol...
I went with a Halloween scene to go with that awesome diorama, and then followed the sketch to set it up. These little witches' brew ingredients are my fave image from our Spooktacular Bash set, and I think this is my fave sentiment, too, lol. I had some fun coloring in my jars, and I cut a fancy Ornate Frame to help set off the words - simple, cute AND spooky - perfect!
