Howl-o-ween Treat

Beautiful weather, family and cookouts.  Love summer holiday weekends!  I'm continuing on with Halloween samples!  Here are a few more Swap cards- this time featuring Howl-o-ween Treat Stamp Set and Boo to You Framelits.  Did you know that you can Bundle these two items and save 15%
Use #140839 for the wood stamp set and framelits and # 140840 for the clear stamp set and framelits.

Here's what the stamp sets and framelits look like-

I love that there is a framelit for every stamped image!!!  Way to go Stampin' Up!  

Here's some samples from the swap - don't forget to leave a comment  - which card do you like best?

5 demonstrators used this set - I created the 3rd card.  I think all of these would make great invites for a Halloween Party!  

We'll be using this set in an upcoming class on Sat. Sept 26th where we will be creating treat bags, tags and boxes!  Check out my Events to sign up - your RSVP to this class is need by 9/11/15.

Make sure to stop back for more inspiration and check out the Upcoming Blog Hop that will be happening on Thursday Sept. 10th!

I'll send gifts to everyone using this code in Sept.

Halloween is Coming!

It's been a very busy couple of weeks!  Lots going on in the studio and in my life.  I recently hosted a SWAP with other demonstrators.  We each picked a stamp set out of the new Holiday Mini and created a card using that set.  We then created 10 cards - they mailed their cards to me and I swapped them with everyone and they received 10 different samples back.  Great way to be inspired!

I'll be sharing them with you over the next several weeks, so keep stopping back I'll be posting more regularly and would love your comments!

We'll start with some Halloween cards - What do you create for Halloween?

Three samples all using the Witches Night Stamp Set!  I created the top two cards!  

Here's what the stamp set looks like-

This set is # 139708  and includes 5 stamps.  It also coordinates with this great kit-

Check out my events on for an upcoming class  on Oct.8th to create this Witching Decor Project.

Feel free to shop from my webpage and use Hostess Code F9RBBRCV  - at the end of the month I will pick mail gifts to everyone who uses the code!  

Please contact me with any questions.

Blessings,  Missy 

RemARKable Blog Tour - Watercolor Wings & Bold Butterfly Bundle

Welcome back to the RemARKable Stampers Blog Tour!  This year we are going to focus on Bundles.  Stampin' Up has so many great bundles in the Annual Catalog - Bundles are a pairing of two products- usually a stamp set and the second product is either a punch, set of framelits or other product.  These bundles are offered at a savings of 15%.  I love when I can purchase products at a savings!  

Hope you join us on the second Thursday of each month at 8 PM to be inspired!

This month I choose to feature the Watercolor Wings Stamp Set and Bold Butterfly Framelits Bundle which is on page 75 of the 15-16 Annual Catalog.

First project - if you know me you know that I love to give and leave little gifts!  Here's an adorable tiny treats gift box!  Simple, quick and easy!

The treat boxes are on page 151 - #135829 - Tiny Treat boxes- 25 (2x2x2") boxes get for chocolate treats, jewelry, or cash!!!  I triple stamped the small butterfly with Calypso Coral ink and cut it out with the framelit (from a matching set) then cut out the top butterfly from a piece of DSP from the Pretty Petals Paper Stack, added some Rhinestone Jewels and a quick tag was created with two other stamps from the Watercolor Wings Stamp Set.  A piece of Mint Macaron 1" Dotted Lace Trim adds a really soft touch.  Love how it looks!

Next project is a little more involved!  It's my first Card in a box card!

 This card can fold flat and be mailed in a standard envelope.  There are lots of tutorials on line - I actually used two and took parts from both to create this card.  Butterflies are stamped with the Watercolor  Wings Stamp Set, sentiments are also from this set and the third butterfly is die cut from the Bold Butterfly Framelits.  The ferns in the back are from the Butterfly Basics Stamp Set- stamped and hand cut.

I love the way this card came out and am looking forward to creating many other cards and gift packaging with this Bundle!  I'd love for you to leave a comment - what do you think?  Feel free to Pin these samples if you are on Pinterest!
Have fun creating!

Blessings, Missy
