Stamping Halloween

Following the excitement of the new catalogue launch, I decided it was time to get a few projects ready for the display that Emma, Ann and myself will have on our stand at the Sincerely Yours Papercraft Show on Sunday at the Hinckley Leisure Centre. With Halloween fast approaching this is one of the simple projects I've put together. I've also entered it in the Stamp Something Challenge which needs punchy projects this week. It folds flat to fit in an envelope or storage unit and pops up.......................

to reveal this array of Halloween haunters!!!! The skeleton is very cute from a retired US stamp set Scary Skeleton and the bats, moon and pumpkins are all made with punch art.
Happy Halloween is from occasional greetings with boo! from tiny tags and the embossed design on the rich razzleberry box is from Baroque Motifs. To distress and spook up the pumpkin striped grosgrain ribbon I gently frayed and pulled apart the fibres and then just singed them with a lit match. Be careful here of course!!!

Finally can you find the wing of the bird punch in my design? The idea came from my clever team mate Emma.
So if you're at loose end on Sunday come and see us at the Sincerely Yours Show in Hinckley.
I'm off to play now with my new stash from the new 2010 - 2011 catalogue which arrived yesterday. Don't forget that you too can order now and enjoy all the new lovely goodies.
