Boo To You!!

Are you ready for Halloween yet? I miss celebrating Halloween and Trick or Treating with little kids. I know some people don't care for Halloween, but in my opinion, it is what you make it. To me, it is just a day to dress up and eat candy and have fun. I will have to cut back on the candy this year, though.
I created this little gift set today with the Artful Inkables set Halloween Hauntings. I just love this set for Halloween projects. It's got the right combination of spooky and fun. The set contains a wall decoration, box of candy and a 3x3 gift card. For the box I started with a wedding favor box I picked up at the local party supply store. I covered the box with patterned paper and stamped the haunted house on the lid with Black Stazon. Then I filled it with Hershey's Special Dark chocolate...my favorite.

The wall hanging was made with a 4x4 chipboard coaster covered with patterned paper. I cut the paper to size and then sanded the edges. I think I may make one of these for my office at work- we could use some festiveness there.This card is just a little 3x3 card created using the same paper. It literally took me 2 minutes to put together.

Stamps: Artful Inkables Halloween Hauntings
Ink: Black Stazon, Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: PTI Hocus Pocus, SU Pumpkin, Black

Reap Well with the Think Ink Tuesday Challenge

Happy Thursday! I am so thankful that today is the start of my "weekend." This week at work wore me out- there are lots of changes under way in the office. I am also thankful that I finally got to stamp and make a card to show you!
I incorporated two challenges in this card- the first is the Think Ink Tuesday challenge on the Artful Inkables blog. You have until September 28th to complete the challenge and a chance to win a grab bag of Artful Inkables Stamps! The recipe for the challenge is:
1 Image
2 Different Ribbons
3 Layers
And you must use scallops in some way!

I may have messed up on the one-image part. Oops. There's actually two and a sentiment.....but It looks better that way and I'm not eligible to win- so we're going to roll with it. ;) The images that I used are from the newly released set called Halloween Hauntings. I LOVE this set- it's a lot of fun!

For my layout I used this week's sketch challenge from the Crazy4Challenges Blog. They are doing awesome things on that blog!

Thanks for stopping by today- I hope you have a GREAT day!
