Festival of Prints

Good Morning!  Okay so I decided to put down the halloween products for a few days,  it's too hard for me not to go right to them with all the new fun stamp sets and products we have to use.  Maybe I'll post one tomorrow.  So in the meantime I got out the new Festival of Prints small  block of new designer series paper.   This is a pack of  4 1/2 x 6 1/2' of versatile designs.  They are advertised as fun holiday patterns but look at my card above, a lot of the patterns in  this pack can be used for all kinds of card making/scrapbooking.

Halloween Elastic hair bands and Video

Hi all!  today I have a little helper my Daughter Shaelyn, who felt we had to make you a video on how to make these super easy Hair Bands.  With two girls in the house who love these bands, it only made sense to find the elastic online and try and make some.  Of course, my mind goes right to Halloween hair bands, so here is what I came up with......

the first one is just a piece of 3 x 4' inch cardboard covered with our Howlstooth and Scaringbone designer series paper, the second design is one of those Ikea jars filled with the hair bands and topped with a rossette stamped with a cute pumpkin from the Spooky Bingo Bits set

There have been lots of emails where I ordered these here it is....

Ribbon Ghost Video

Okay, no laughing here,  as I promised, here is the Ribbon Ghost Video for you.  As you can see I had a little "minor" accident with my thumb.  Hope you have fun trying this!  Smiles,   Julie

Ribbon Ghost

I feel like just making Halloween card right now!  I'm such a dork!  I saw this cute ghost on  Pinterest and wanted to try him out.  It is a great way to use up your scrap ribbon and also showcase this at your classes. There are just 5 strips of white ribbon that I cut the bottom with the angle.  I used our new sticky rounds,  I cut just a tiny corner of the circle off then starting to layer the ribbon.  Cut around the head and put a bow on top.  I will post a video tomorrow evening on how to do this for you.  Check back....... Isn't it cute!

Ronald McDonald House

Making a Difference... monday I held my Kid's Stamp Camp and decided I would have them stamp cards using our new Ronald McDonald house  stamp set.  It's called Moving Forward.  Each year Stampin Up! showcases a new stamp set that they design especially for this cause.  Ronald McDonald House Charities help support families with children wio have serious illnesses.  Each stamp set purchased Stampin Up! donates $3.00 to the houses!  That's amazing!
Each month I visit our local house and get an opportunity to stamp with these amazing children. 

I found these cute cards on Stamin Connection and decided  that  this is what they would stamp.  The made  two of each cards and then put them in the clear card boxes, we wrapped them with the belly bands and then used the Ronald McDonald House logo for the front.   After we were all done, I had them stamp the cards below to take to the house for the families to use.   Julie Gunhus traded these at convention and I just LOVED the colors! thanks Julie!

You can order your Ronald McDonald House Moving Forward stamp set too!
 Moving Forward  wood mounted #126320 - $19.95 or clear mounted #126322 - $14.95
