Halloween Pop-Out Cards


The Fronts!



The Insides!


Here are my Halloween Pop-Out Cards! These fold flat and fit in standard medium SU envelopes, but the recipient gets a surprise when they are opened!
I do have to say, these cards look pretty simple, but they took forever to figure out the dimensions to make them work properly! They do have a great "wow" factor when you open them! These are a favorite with my son.

Due to Stampin' Ups' policy, I am no longer able to offer the directions and templates for these cards while still being a Demonstrator. Sorry for any inconvenience!

Matching Skulls

A week or so ago, I posted this card above with the skull. My son, Timothy, got dressed this morning and put on his skull shirt and then saw the card in my bucket. (He likes to look through and pick out the ones he likes.) He got so excited that they matched, we just had to take pictures! Here he is below with his shirt and the card. I didn't even think of this shirt when I made it and they look exactly the same! I feel a scrapbook page coming on!
(You can see how to make this card HERE!)

As long as I'm posting pictures of the kids, I thought I should put one up of Ashley. We took this before school this morning. We did pigtails for the first time since we cut her hair and she looks so cute! Thank you to all of you who often offer your kind wishes and thoughts for her. She is doing wonderful!
Can you get any more gorgeous than these kids!? I'm not proud or anything though....

Circus Tent Gift Card Holder

Here is my Circus Tent Gift Card Holder! This card opens to put a gift card on the inside and give as a present to adults, children or anyone who needs a smile. It would also make great birthday invitation without the gift card on the inside!
You can even use this as a decoration for a circus scrapbook page!
Easily change up the colors or decorations to your liking!
This card fits in a standard medium SU envelope.

Fabric Cinderella Pumpkins



I saw a great site that has directions for these adorable Fabric Pumpkins! I thought these would be perfect to make using the Spice Cake Fabric. I did not give directions on my blog, since the other site has great ones, so check them out there!
I used circles ranging in diameter from 8" - 15". I used all three Spice Cake fabrics and just turned one inside out for the fourth different pumpkin. The photos really don't do these pumpkins justice, they are gorgeous in real life!
