Check out the cards that are in my "Boo Bag" - yep made from all scraps!

10/10 Cupcakes and more....

SVG Files – Sure Cuts A Lot

What fun!!! - Halloween cupcakes! I made these Halloween cupcakes this afternoon and then added the cupcake wrappers and stamped images to 'dress' them up a bit! The CTMH Stamp set I used was D1439 Spook Alley and the SVG cut file is from SVG Cuts - Dreadful Halloween Cupcake Wrappers.





Check out my "Sunset" and "Gypsy" cupcakes! I played around with my cake colors to get the same color as the NEW CTMH colors -Sunset and Gypsy. I used a mix of Copper and Orange to create the Sunset color and Violet with a touch of black to create the color of Gypsy!



Enjoy!

10/09 Studio J Halloween Layout

oh my! How did this happen?...... I think I was kidnapped and spent the last 5 days in outer space!! BUT now I have returned to BOO you!!!! Someone cast a spell on me - darn Jeanette!- and now I am hooked on Studio J! Seriously I never thought I would become a digital scrapbooker but there are sooo many benefits to this "Magical Medium" that I am hooked!

My favorite holiday is Halloween (did I tell you that yet?) and Robbie LOVED Halloween - It was the only time he would willingly go into Joann Fabrics! He would pick out the pattern and then I would sew his costume. Do I remember the year? - NO - but now that Robbie is all grown up I can scan the 3 photos and import them into the Studio J software and 'viola' create an awesome layout that he can show his 'kids' when he becomes a dad!

Supplies:

Studio J membership
"Boo" kit - members only -exclusive to Studio J
"Primadonna" Layout - exclusive to Studio J members

Remember this layout has only 3 pictures in it BUT with Studio J, I was able to add bits and pieces of the 3 photos to create 7 additional photos for the layout!


AND because I have a membership with Studio J this page only cost me $6.50 for a 2 page layout! woozer - $3.25 each page! I would have paid that just for the photos at Walgreens! PLUS I have the jpg file to share with you and my family!!!

So check out my website sweetaline.myctmh.com and sign up for your 12 month membership with Studio J and create your own one-of-a kind Halloween layouts! - or you can 'try it out' and see if Studio J is for you! hmmmm.... I bet you will be a convert as well! Look for a few more Studio J layouts coming your way during this holiday season!

10/04 BOO!!!!!!!!...........

A cute little treat bag - so simple - 4 x 4 square piece of the NEW color cardstock - Sunset - folded in half , scraps of the Hooligans paper pack and embellished with the September SOM of the month - Thriller!!! - Soooo easy....

10/03 BOO-ed again!

This is my Halloween Treat Can..... - yeah - I know what you are thinking - the poor children get a pencil and play dough! But really not too many kids complain - last year we had less than 15! But this is a super easy project - just decorate a 1 gallon paint can with gauze and cotton balls and add a few punched circles and a tongue and you are done! Maybe this year I'll buy some candy!



Enjoy!
