Blogging Friends Blog Hop - Harvest Moon

 

Hello and welcome to the September Blogging Friends Blog Hop.  We are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators that love to share fun creative projects with the world.  Each month we do a blog hop on the first Friday of the month in the US and comparative time in the other countries we have members in. With each new hop is a new theme and this month's theme was Harvest Moon.  I used this month's theme and went with things that represent Fall and Harvest time to me. Here's a look at my project.  


 I used the Autumn Greetings Bundle from Stampin' Up!'s August-December Mini Catalog for my project today.  I started out with my card base of Thick Whisper White Cardstock and added a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper in a fun Fall color themed pattern.  The Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper has a ton of different plaid color combinations in it that can be used for different holidays, seasons, or occasions.  


I used my Stampin' Blends to color the large floral image from the Autumn Greetings Stamp Set.  I stamped the image with my Stamparatus in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink with my Stamparatus twice onto a piece of Whisper White Cardstock.  I used the following colors of Stampin' Blends to color with; Mint Macaron, Cherry Cobbler, Mango Melody, Pumpkin, Pie, Cinnamon Cider, Crumb Cake and Cajun Craze.  I used the matching dies to cut it out and popped it up onto a Ornate Frames Die cut with Stampin' Dimensionals.  


My sentiment was placed on a Cinnamon Cider Cardstock strip that I heat embossed my sentiment on with Stampin' Gold Emboss Powder.  I added this to the front of the card with Stampin' Dimensionals and added a few Gold Glitter Enamel Dots to finish it off.

Three Spooky Halloween Treat Holders - Facebook Live September 2, 2020

 Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am sharing the three spooky little projects that I am making during my Facebook Live tonight at 8 pm CST on my Facebook Page.  If you have never watched me during my weekly Facebook Live I invite you to catch the live.  If you are not able to catch me live I will be sharing the Replay here afterwards.  Tonight as I mentioned I am making 3 different Spooky Halloween Treat Holders.  With the pandemic going on we don't know how Halloween, Fall Carnivals, or Halloween events at schools will be handled this year.  The pandemic doesn't have to stop you from creating cut little Halloween projects to share with your friends, family, co-workers, students, neighbors or anyone.  

If you have never joined me for a Facebook Live I go live every Wednesday Night at 8 pm CST on my Facebook business page.  I started out just doing two treat projects and a Christmas Card but I decided earlier today that I wanted to do just treat projects tonight.  Here's the first project that I came up with for my live. 

I created this super cute little Mini Kit-Kat Holder using the Ghoulish Goodies Stamp Set.  I love the classic silhouette images and fun little sentiments.  Speaking of the sentiments they were designed with treat projects in mind.  This little treat holder will hold two Mini Kit-Kat bars.  


My next project is this super cute Tiny Mini Pizza Box!  I used products from the Magic In This Night Suite to create this super spooky and cute treat holder.  It's just perfect for Halloween.  If you dare to open this little box you will find a single Reese's Cup inside.  


 My last little treat holder is a Tic-Tac Holder that uses the Festive Post Stamp Set from the August-December Mini Catalog.  This will hold a regular size pack of Tic-Tac Candy.
