Halloween Scrapbooking

Every year at Halloween we usually go away for a few days or do something on Halloween, we are going to Chessington World of Adventures this year! This is a photo I have of Lucy after she had some great face painting done at The Christmas Adventure during half term.

It is another clean & simple layout using some of the Howlstooth and Scarringbone designer papers with the Jack of All Trades stamp set.

I covered the pumpkins with Crystal Effects to give them a glossy finish.

It might seem a little strange to spend Halloween at The Christmas Adventure but they open during October half term and at Halloween they have actors in the woods telling a story and "popping up" (not too scary early in the night).  It is well worth a visit, their Christmas shop is lovely, great hot chocolate, a wonderful illuminated woodland walk and many different activities - hopefully we will go again this year.

Christmas and Halloween Classes

I am sooo late posting my classes I held last week!! Life just seems to be really busy.  I gave my lovely ladies a choice of Christmas or Halloween kits - most did choose Christmas kits but once they had seen some fun Halloween projects many were wishing they had chosen Halloween.

I made up sets of projects for each kit, a selection of mini treat holders and cards, there was still plenty of kit left so the ladies could make more treats at home.

The Christmas kit colours are Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzaz and Chocolate Chip.

The stamps are Delightful Decorations with of course the fabulous Bauble punch.

The Halloween kit colours are Concorde Crush, Peach Parfait and Basic Black.

For the very first time Stampin' Up! have some Halloween stamps and designer papers in the new idea book and catalogue. This stamp set is called Jack of all trades.

Hopefully I will have some time to make up a few more of these little boxes ready for the "trick or treaters" next week.
