Trick or Treat ~ Shop Pumpkin Spice Inspiration

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

 

Today I am posting and prividing some inspiration for the Shop Pumpkin Spice Blog.

 

 

I have been having fun coloring again!

 

 

This adorable little image is from Penny Black's "Mimi Halloween" stamp set. Isn't she the cutest witch! I stamped her with My Pink Stamper's "Darkest Night" Hybrid ink and she was colored with Copic markers. The sentiment is also from this set. It is part of the treat bag that another image in the set was holding.

 

The papers I used are from My Mind's Eye "Blackbird" Collection and Echo Park's "Chillingsworth Manor." I cut the sheet music from this 6x6 pad. The star and punched border were also from the Blackbird Collection.

 

Everything, except my image, was inked with Momento Tuxedo Black ink. I finished off the card with a button and some twine from my stash.

 

You can find all these products and so much more at Shop Pumpkin Spice! You really should check it out. The prices and selection are fabulous!

Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge ~ 3D Objects

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Today I am sharing inspiration for this week's Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge.

 

The Challenge:

 

Create a project involving candles. You can wrap them, stamp on them, or anything else your creative minds can come up with!

We'll be awarding "TOP PEACH" to the player who uses their Peachy Keen Stamps this week and our two runner ups will receive a spiffy badge to display on their blog!

 

Guidelines:

- Design must be new

- Link up by 9/26 - 11:59 pm EST

 

 

I decided to create a decorative band for my candle using the September Stamp of the Month PKSC-09.

 

The scarecrow was colored with Copic markers and his clothing was paper pieced. I colored the pumpkin with Copic markers, also.

 

 

For some added color and texture I added some Autumn Flower Soft to the base.

 

Now it's your turn!

 

Head on over the the Peachy Keen Challenge Blog. Check out my design team sisters project for some more inspiration and then create a project. I can't wait to see what you do!

 

Thank you all for the sweet comments over that last few days. I really appreciate each one of you.

 

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!

 

 

PKS 2012 Halloween / Fall Blog Hop

This is the my second post for today. Scroll down to see my Scrappy Moms Stamps project.

 

Hi Peachy Fans! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Today we are hopping! This is the 2012 Peachy Keen Stamps Halloween / Fall Blog Hop. The present and past Peachy Keen designers have so much for you to see.

 

If you have come here from Nikki's Blog: Scrappin Navy Wife, you are in the right place. If you just happened to be visiting my blog then you will want to start from the beginning at the Peachy Keen Blog.

 

Here is my Peachy project:

 

 

I created a treat box for you using the match box from  Cricut's Tags, Bags, Boxes, and More. I cut it at 4.12 inches so that it could fit 6 mini Reeses Cups.

 

The box is decorated using papers from the September Peachy Picks Kit. I cut the little monster from Cricut's Mini Monsters cartridge. I hid his face and stamped him with Peachy Keen Stamps PK-692 Monster Mash Assortment. My sentiment is from Peachy Keen Stamps PKSC-09 September 2012.

 

Other items used:

Mathy Stewart  Drippy Goo Punch

Halloween Baker's Twine

Lime Green, Orange Stickles

Ranger Glossy Accents

Button

 

The Peachy Keen Stamps Club is a monthly recurring subscription that you can opt out of at any time.  You get an 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of image and sentiment stamps eachy month at a special club price. The club is available for US residents, as well as, international residents.

 

You are still able to get these stamps without a subscription but the price will be different than the club price.

 

Now it's time to head to the next stop in the hop but before you go I need to share a few more things with you.

 

First, there is a Peachy Keen Stamps Sale happening right now! With every order you will receive a FREE Stamp. There are a few discounts to be had, too.

 

Secondly, We will be giving away a total of $150.00 in prizes for this hop! How AWESOME is THAT?!!! They will include: 1 $50 Gift Certificate and 4 $25 Gift Certificates. BUT you must leave a comment at each stop in the hop to have a chance to win. These gift certificates have been hidden and we do not know from which blogs the winners will be pulled. We will keep the comments open until Friday morning, when we will "officially" end the hop.

 

After you leave your comment, head on over to Lisa's Blog: 2 Angels in Heaven. She has something fabulous for you to see!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bippity Boppity Boo! ~ SMS Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Hi Friends!  Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Are you ready for another Scrappy Moms Stamps Terrific Tuesday Challenge?

 

This week's challenge is to make a Halloween project.

 

 

I welded 2 tags together using the Cricut cartridge, A Child's Year, and my Gypsy. This cute little witch is a SVG from Lettering Delights Witch One.

 

I stamped her face with Peachy Keen Stamps PK- 560 Dolly Dumplins. I added Yellow Stickles to her buckles for some bling. The spider web border is a Martha Stewart border punch. Added on top of the border is the new Halloween Baker's Twine that is now available at Scrappy Moms Stamps.

 

This sentiment is from the newest release from Scrappy Moms Stamps, "Goosebumps!"

 

 

Now it's your turn. We want to see your Halloween projects. You can link up at Scrappy Moms Stamps!
