Amuse Studio's Creepy Hollow - Amazing!

All I can say is she outdid herself AGAIN!  I was so very excited to get a package in the mail over the weekend with this wonderful Halloween decoration.  Shari is some kind of talented, she.is.an.artist!  Now for a close up of all the details. 

She used Amuse Studio's Creepy Hollow stamp set along with the Screenprint background to create the scene.  She added a bit of grass & the spooky fence dies in and around the tomb stones to complete the look.  The lantern even gives off a glow of light - all the details are amazing! 

Check out how she used Amuse Studio's rosette die to look like a spider web.  Don't you love how all the chevrons line up perfectly?  The felt spider is from Amuse Studio's Candy Box die set.  She inked up the edges of the rosette and added a bit of glitter to the mountains of the rosette.

The branches are from Creepy Hollow as well (On our Spotlight Sale thru end of October)  She used Amuse Studio's Bat Die Trio & also made a moon with a circle punch to create another spooky scene.  I absolutely love it and will have this amazingly cute Halloween decoration proudly displayed in my home!  Trick OR Treat - I say most definitely Treat - THANK YOU SHARI!!

Composition Notebooks

These mini Compostion Notebooks are fun to decorate for all occasions.  Just a little tip if you plan to make some of these, be sure to try to find the notebooks with the pointed edges.  I noticed some of them have rounded edges, the pointed edges are much easier to work with in my experience!  I have a Holiday Boutique that I'm participating in at our church later this month & I think people might like these for a little Halloween gift.  I'm also working on several more with a Holiday theme.  I'll be posting those soon!!

I used all Amuse Studio products.  Orange Petite Polka Dot cardstock, Orange Chevron cardstock, I stamped the Venetian background on orange paper & embossed with white embossing powder.  There are so many options and fun ways to decorate this little books!

What's that spell?

Give me an S-P

Give me an O-O

Give me a K-Y...what's that spell??

S-P-O-O-K-Y!! 

I received these darling Halloween wood blocks in the mail yesterday from Shari.  She used nearly all amuse|studio products to create this decoration.  She is a wonderful artist & so very talented & generous with her creations!  Thank you Shari for making my day!
