Happy Halloween from the Coughlin household!

Here’s the last of my shares for Halloween! I have to say, from the Wicked Fun designer paper, Spider Web embossing folder, Fang-tastic, Wicked Cool and Paisley stamp sets to the awesome accessories like waffle paper, glimmer brads and bat punch, Stampin’ Up! didn’t disappoint us this Halloween season. My only wish is that I had more time to do some of the awesome projects I had in my head!

But, here’s two of my favorite cards:

First up is this beauty created by my awesome upline, Susy Miller for my Holiday Mini catalog swap. She made great use of the waffle paper and Wicked Cool Designer paper but my FAVORITE was how she took the bat from the Fang-tastic stamp set and just glittered his wings with orange glitter after stamping it on a Window Sheet! What you can’t see very well here is the internal backdrop of the Spider Web embossing folder highlighted in white ink. WOW!! WOW!! WOW! Awesome card!

This next card is one I created with the Paisley Prints class. It was my intent to offer this class up for sale but I never got my act together and now I fear it isn’t timely anymore. Perhaps I’ll share the rest of the cards in the following weeks. This stamp set is so versatile as you can cover so many holidays and occasions. Not to mention–paisley is all the rage right now! We even have a coordinating Stampin’ Around wheel to go with it!

 

I think I like the fact that the paisley pumpkin was turned into a spooky jack o’lantern using the Pumpkin Faces Sizzlit in the catalog. By highlighting these black face accents with stitching details from our white gel pen, I was able to give this card the right amount of pop to make it work. Of course, that awesome Spider Web embossing folder was a major WOW! highlight. The bat punch was a nice final touch, don’t you think?

Well, I hope you have a "wicked" fun Halloween! Now where’s those Snicker bars I bought for the Treaters? It’s time to feed the boss some chocolate for posting this Fang-tastic Goblin Greeting!

Chow! (yes as in eat —  not Caio! Ha!)
