Halloween Fun and Spooktacular Giveaway!

Hi Everyone,

I have some fun Halloween Ideas and a super FREE Halloween Giveaway! To enter, just leave a comment! I also want to tell you about our Design Team Vintage Postcard Challenge next Monday, Aug 31st at 10 am - which is when I will also announce the winner of our Halloween Prize Pack!We have lots of Halloween stuff, so the winner will receive all these goodies!

1 Vintage Postcard Kit
1 Halloween Treats Sticker Sheet
1 Halloween Fun Clear Art Stamp Set
1 Halloween Time Vintage Cuts (forgot to add to photo)
1 Halloween Image & Journal Notes Booklet

I will start off with a Halloween Postcard project but come back to see the other postcard projects next Monday! DT member Pam Hooten created this special treat box using 2 chipboard postcards and images from the Halloween Postcard Kit. See more photos and the details HERE on Pam’s blog.

I'm sorry I didn't have time to link every project project today but you can visit all our Design Team Member blogs through the links on our blog.

I wanted to show you how fun and versatile the Halloween Fun stamp set is. I like the way Lisa Zappa masked the little witch here and stamped her over the text stamp from our Booklovers stamp.

On this adorable card, DT member Heidi Blankenship used a bunch of the stamps from the same set to build a frame, adding the spider, bats, cat and little witch. I like the way Heidi matted and 'hung' the Halloween image from our Halloween Cuts.

On this card that Splitcoast member Darlene Pavlick created a cool scene for her witch and stamped the shoe and bats from the same set.

DT member Michelle Kovack colored the cute little monsters, the bat and pumpkin stamps (for the top) from the Halloween set and cut them out to create a sweet little treat box here.

Little craft wood blocks are fun to dress with images and DT member Vicki Chrisman created these for a class last year using Halloween images from our Halloween Cuts and from our Seasonal Booklet. The best part about the wood is you can use a serrated tracing wheel (from your sewing box) to go around the outside edges and you will get the great faux stitching detail you can see Vicki created here.

I love the way DT member Anna Wight stitched up this fun card on her sewing machine using the pumpkin cake from our Halloween Image & Journal Notes Booklet. Then she added some glitter, which really lights it up!

In case you missed it, on the last post I showed an adorable Halloween card HERE that DT member Linda Duke created. I've showed this calendar before but we have so many new visitors I wanted to show it again because it's so beautiful! Linda used our calendar stamps, a Halloween image from our Seasonal Booklet and flourish stamps from our Cherubs stamp set. The blank calendar was from Stampin Up.

This is a great idea that ST member Pam Hooten had to decorate a door hanger and include a little pocket for treats. The image is from our Halloween Cuts and paper is from our Earthy Paper Pad.

Past DT member Michelle Wooderson dressed up one of our little Girls Chipboard Outfits Halloween style using the diamond paper from the Earthy Paper Pad and dot paper from the Radiant Pad. She used the Halloween stickers to across the bottom. I love the glitter she added to the collar and bow. It would be super cute to add a Halloween photo when you flip the apron up. I'm happy to say we did get more of the vintage Mini Hangers back in stock also!

Here is another great example of how you can create a frame using the corners and border from the Halloween Fun stamp set as DT member Marisa Grosson did here on the super cute card. The image is from the Halloween Image & Journal Notes Booklet.

Lastly, I have a Halloween Fun House to show you that DT member Vivian Peters decorated using our Chipboard Folding House. Diamond paper is from the Earthy Pad. She painted the roof black, used our Halloween Stickers behind the chipboard windows and door and added pom poms trim and buttons. The nice part is you can also add photos and journaling inside and they fold up flat for storage. You can see more photo HERE on Vivian's Blog
