Spooked!



I had lots of fun making these halloween projects using Lizzie Anne Designs 'Spooked' stamp set. You can find these stamps and lots of other cute Lizzie Anne Stamps here at Silly Monkey Crafts. When I saw Isa's fabulous sketch this week over at Ismaki I knew this would be just perfect to use for my card. I must admit I did find the swivel bit tricky but it's the first time i've done this style of card and you know what they say....

If you like my little favor/treat box you can find the details of how to make it here. I totally recommend a Scor-Pal for these type of projects and they make it so quick and easy. Don't you just love these fun and cute keepsake brads by Karen Foster Designs. Nearly all the products used on my work can be found at Silly Monkey Crafts.

Before I go I just wanted to show you the below beautiful card I received from my friend Crissy. Thank you so much Crissy and I am just so happy to have one of your cards to admire up close. That isn't all this wonderful and talented lady has just given me the "I Love your blog" award too. You are the best!





You may have noticed that I have created a new blog to house my sketches I create. Please feel free to use them and if you do leave a link so I can come and visit you.

Have a great weekend and I should be back soon as I've already started my next card!

Hugs,

Halloween isn't really that big here.. don't really know how the rest of norway is catching up, but the north part doesn't cellebrate it! Would be fun to try, autumn doesnt really have any special days or holidays for us. When summer's over I just start waiting for christmas ;) hihi!!!

Hope you'll have a wonderful weekend!! Hugs!!
