Halloween Coffins!

I had so much fun making these coffins! I used Woodgrain background with My Favorite Things as the coffin handles and made a couple versions of the casket lid using Batty for You and Black & White DSP from the Holiday Mini! They turned out great. I really lucked out when I found these skeleton gummies at the dollar store, too! I loaded the caskets/coffins with gummy worms, eyeballs, and/or the gummy skeletons and passed them out to some fun people! I know they liked them and it was really fun sharing a cool project like this!



Shake, Shake, Shimmer Paint!



I had fun with my friends experimenting with differ
ent ways to use Shimmer Paint (Champagne, Frost White & Platinum) this past week! Here are some fun shots of the ladies and some of our completed projects!

Love the Shimmer Paint !!



Well, my least favorite thing to do is to HAVE TO make a sympathy card. However,Stampin' Up has a great many stamp sets and tools to do a wonderful job. I started out with a simple card but knew it wasn't quite enough. I used Strength and Refuge stamp set with Mellow Moss, Very Vanilla & Always Artichoke cardstocks along with matching ink pads with Certainly Celery ink, stamped off, for the cross!!! Here's my first card that needed more:






I added some coordinating ribbon (Mellow Moss taffeta) and also tried a new technique with the Shimmer Paint!! I added 12 drops of Champagne Shimmer Paint to an extra spray mist bottle that I poured 3/4 full of rubbing alcohol. I gave it a good shake then sprayed it all over the background cardstock and VOILA' it's a beautiful card!!


Here's the finished product! It's so much nicer than the simple card I started with! What do you think?
