Sunday Showcase—Halloween Project Extravaganza!

Hi Stamping Friends!

It's getting close to that trick-or-treat time with just a few more weeks to finish up your Halloween projects!  The good news is that if you get your order in this week, you'll still have plenty of time to create creepy cards, yummy treats and spooky décor for all of your Halloween festivities! 

Today's showcase has some great ghoulish ideas to give you some last-minute inspiration!  These projects were shared at Ronda Wade's Creative Convention in August.

Created by Sandy Haynes & Lynn Schulz for Ronda Wade's Creative Convention.  Color combo: Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, Summer Starfruit and Whisper White.

Sandy and Lynn created a whole display of Thinlit projects for Creative Convention, and they gave me this spooky Circle Thinlit card as a swap.  I love the bright colors of the Witches' Brew Designer Paper and cool Witches' Brew Washi Tape against the black background.  The images are from the Best of Halloween Collector set, perfectly sized for the swinging circle! 

Dawn bourgette - ghosted bats copy

Created by Dawn Bourgette from Dawn's Creative Chalet for Creative Convention.  Color combo: Smoky Slate, Basic Black, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Whisper White.

Dawn did an entire Halloween themed display at Creative Convention, so I'm highlighting some of my favorites today.  I loved this card using the Halloween Hello (wood) stamp set with the cool ghosting technique!  We learned this from our demo-exclusive Stampin' Success Magazine and it's so fun and easy. 

Ghosting Technique

  • Stamp images in White Craft Ink onto Whisper White card stock.  Let dry.
  • Brayer on ink and the white images will resist the ink and still pop.
  • Stamp the same image on top with Black StazOn ink using a Stamp-A-Ma-Jig for accurate positioning.  

Also features: Black Chevron Ribbon and Bracket Label Punch.

Ronda - halloween jar topper copy

Created by Ronda Wade for Creative Convention.  Color combo: Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Cherry Cobber and Whisper White.

Save your old embellishment containers for a quick & cute treat holder!  We made these at Creative Convention using the Halloween Bash (wood) stamp set.  The 2-1/2" Circle Punch makes circles in the perfect size for the top!  Decorate, then fill with M&Ms, Skittles or other small candies!  YUM!

Also features: Houndstooth Texture Impressions Folder, Labels Collection Framelits, Pumpkin Pie 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon.

Ronda tags 4 you - trick copy

Created by Ronda Wade for Creative Convention.  Color combo: Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, Elegant Eggplant and Very Vanilla.

Another make & take from Creative Convention, this time featuring the four-holiday Tags 4 You (wood) stamps set.  We used the Label Bracket Punch, which is also available with the stamps as a Tags 4 You Bundle (wood) to save 15%! 

Also features: Witches' Brew Designer Paper and Witches' Brew Washi Tape.

Dawn bourgette - halloween treat boxes copy
