more halloween

I think I need some more black & white Halloween around my house......  Easton is sleeping & Lillie is out for a bike ride with her friends (and the mom) .....so what better time to make something.....I took a picture frame that I already had (sorry Lillie, I will put you back in as soon as the Holidays are over)

I then stamped my image, all the stamps that I use are from Stampin' Up and if you want to order any you can order from my BCB (best crafty buddy) Leana.  Just send her a email.

the rest is pretty easy and I'm sure that we all did this in kindergarten......add some glue, some glitter, and then you have a spooky glittery eyeball. 

and if you have girls in your house, you probably have some broken princess's necklaces that she wont mind if you add to your projects.

I made rolled fabric flowers.

took some left over scallop punches from my wreath that I made and added one of the flowers to the paper.

 Happy Halloween Crafting!!

THANKS FOR LOOKING!!

Halloween Paper Wreath

Ok Ladies.........by far this is my most favorite thing that I have created this week....yes, its the only thing that I created this week, but good golly..... I love it!!  I finally made one.  And let me just tell you, last night when I finished it and I was talking picture so that I could post it and all my pictures where HORRIBLE!   I went to bed and I was so bummed that I had to wait until I got home from work to post it.  So I turned on tinker bell threw the girls in front of the TV gave them some cookies and milk and here I am.  So lets get to it already...... I'm dying to show you.

Here are my supplies, foam wreath, (left over from Eastons Birthday wreath) a book from the dollar store, a scallop punch and of course DIET COKE.

 Basically all that you do is punch out a ton of scallop circles from the book and then hot glue them to your base.  I used a maker to fold the paper over and then glued it to the base

once my wreath was all done, i thought it was kinda small.  I took the frame that I have had forever from Ikea, that everyone has and just glued some paper on the insert of the frame.  well actually my wonderful hubby did this part, I could not get the paper straight and it was really bugging him.

 

 it still needed something..... so I made a "spooky" little banner. I made paper lollies stamp the letters on different paper and then attached those with some toole to the lollies.  I attached the lollies together with a needle and thread.

 

 added some more "spookyness"

 

 

  and WA-LA!!  here it is.........................

I hope you love it as much as I do.

Halloween House: Finished

Guess what..... I finished it, that's right, and I'm even done waaaaayyyyyy, before I thought I would be.  So are you ready to see some pictures?

I love the way it turned out!!  When I was putting all the paper on it, I did the cool mod podge trick, where you get your paper wet and then put it on the surface.  You will be surprised on how easy this makes it when you are trying to get it perfect and I find that I get no bubbles or wrinkles after it is completely dry.  You can go here  and here to see how it all began.

Halloween House, part 1

I'm loving the way the Halloween house is turning out, although it is kinda a pain so I thought I would show you what I have so far.  All the paper is form My Minds Eye, "Haunted".  Some of it is from last year.  I still have a lot of trimming to do, but Its almost 10:00 and that's when I turn into a pumpkin, plus I want the mod podge to try over night.

I can't wait for it do be done!!  Don't you just love the spiders crawling down the peeks,  eek!!  That's my favorite so far.

Thanks for Looking!
