Stampin' Addicts Holiday Catalog Hop


Hooray! You've arrived at stop #10 on the Stampin' Addicts Holiday Catalog Blog Hop. You may have gotten here by clicking the "Next" button on Katherine's My Magical Inkery Tour blog, or you may have just stumbled upon the hop here. Either way, you can find the complete list here of the 14 stops, each featuring a fabulous product from the new SU Holiday Catalog. Today I'm showing the adorable Monster Munchies stamp set, which can be used to make Halloween cards, party invitations, and decorate treats, too!


First, let's start with a card. Notice there are two stamps combined to get the image? The spider web in the "Boo" was begging to have the spider nearby, so I inked just the spider with a Stampin' Write Marker. The clear mount stamp made it easy to position perfectly under the B.

Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP (MDS2), 1/2" Striped Satin Ribbon,
Big Shot, Labels Collection Framelits, Perfect Polka-Dots Folder, Googlies

Next is a fun invitation to the Halloween party I have planned. The "Come as you aren't" part of the greeting just gives me the giggles. And how about Franken-kilroy peering over the top? Isn't he cute with those googly eyes?

Lucky Limeade, Very Vanilla, Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP (MDS2), Heat Tool, Black EP, 
Decorative Label Punch, Boho Blossoms Punch, Big Shot, Houndstooth Folder, Paper Piercing Tool, Googlies

Now a party must have refreshments for the party-goers, so up next we have a bottle of delicious Spider Cider (recognize the spider?) and a treat box with a bag of party mix. 'Ol Frankie makes another appearance as well, to tie in with the invitation.

Tangerine Tango, Lucky Limeade, Very Vanilla, Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP (MDS2), Extra-Large Oval Punch, 1-1/4" Square Punch, Scallop Square Punch, Big Shot, Finishing Touches Edgelits, Lucky Limeade Bakers Twine, Black Brads, Crystal Effects, 1/2" Striped Satin Ribbon

Now, if you have seen the Howlstooth & Scaringbone Designer Series Paper, you may have noticed that there aren't any Lucky Limeade stripes or chevrons. Wanna know how I did it? It was EASY!!! Come back Monday and I'll tell you how!

  9. I love all the googly eyes - the treat packages are fantastic. At first I thought I labeled my Howlstooth and Scaringbone DSP incorrectly! I can't wait to see how you came up with that DSP - though I think I have a clue! ;)
