Halloween In January

Just a quick one today.  And I'm not off my rocker (well not anymore than usual).  This post is because my craft room was in storage for the bulk of last year and I'm becoming reacquainted with everything, so when my friend Cindy came over yesterday with all her Stampin Up goodies and a box of Halloween stuff.... well I couldn't resist.  COME ON.... HALLOWEEN?!?  You KNOW I couldn't!!!!

So have you guys seen the Stampin Up Chalk Talk die set?  Isn't it INCREDIBLE????  I jumped on Pinterest to see what people were doing with that set and here's what I came up with (see how I took complete credit for someone else's design ideas.... just kidding, you can check out the designer's creation HERE, this is just my interpretation):


Click on the link above to see how to make Nicole's little Halloween goodie box.  For mine I used Cindy's pre-embossed web card that she challenged me to do something with (I hope she wasn't expecting a completed card)... hehehehe....


I punched out three tags from the Chalk Talk die set, inked the edges with memento black tuxedo and stamped my Halloween sentiment from Tickled Pink Stamp's Halloween Sentiments that I splatter stamped using Close To My Heart's You Rock splatter stamp in memento's lady bug.  I threw on a black ribbon and a Jolee's Boutique dimensional glitter spider and called it GREAT!

Happy Halloween Everybody!!!  And thank you Cindy for hanging out with me and getting my juices flowing again.  I HAD A BLAST!!!!
