Christmas In Our Town

This beauty was made by my Sister in Law, Laura.  Don't you love the layered scene she created with the houses and little sweet shop?  So cute!  

These two Amuse Studio stamp sets are a must have!

Season's Greetings

I am hooked on making snowy backgrounds with the Falling Snow template and embossing paste.  This time after it dried I used a Clear Wink of Stella pen over top of the snowy dots to add a little shimmer.  So pretty!

Amazing Projects by Shari!

Look at the crafty goodness that came in the mail last week from my friend, Shari.  She never ceases to amaze me with her extraordinary talent & creativity!  The Witch Stand is so cute using all Amuse Studio products.  The coordinating card makes the presentation a home run!

This is on the back of the Witch stand so that either side is cutely decorated!

And this next project is so cool that the picture does not do it justice!  Did you notice that she cut out each of the windows in all the shops so that the light would shine thru when you have your candle glowing?  I thought a quick video might give a better look at all of the details.  WOW!  Thank you Shari for another year of wonderful Halloween projects!  You are a rock star!  

Gimme A Break...

Orange Soda Pop...

I can't remember the last time I drank an Orange Soda Pop!  ha!  What a fun decoration for your Halloween party beverages.  I used all Amuse Studio products starting with Sugar Crepe Paper, Tuxedo Assortment Polka Dot Washi Tape, Onyx Paper Straw and a cute little banner on the straw stamped with a sentiment from the Halloween In Our Town stamp set.

More Treats!

I created this cute little pocket treat for the mini Ghirardelli chocolates.  I used three pieces of foam adhesive to adhere the piece of candy to the tag.  Tuck the chocolate mini inside the pocket and leave the tag on the outer edge to decorate the front of the pocket.  I used the Tiny attacher to staple the sides closed.

Ghost Treats!

I saw this idea in the Amuse Studio October Collection flyer and I just had to try it.  You can make the cutest little ghost treats using the Amuse Studio Candy Package One die.  You just add a couple of Onyx pearl stickers for the eyes & you are all set.  I also used the Amuse Studio Candy Wrappers die set to wrap the chocolate nugget & I stamped Boo To You from the Halloween In Our Town stamp set.  

Halloween In Our Town

There are so many fun things you can create with Amuse Studio's Halloween In Our Town stamp set and dies.  This card is a fun Halloween scene with a dark sky and ghost floating over the town!  

I love this starry night scene!

And this shows the versatility of the set with a nice Fall setting!

Tag Bundle Die Set

Wow, have you seen this new Tag Bundle Die Set from Amuse Studio?  I had a chance to use it the other day and there are so many fun elements in this die set.  The large pinking edge is perfect for layering on an A2 size card.  The stitched layer works well as a layer on a card or is fun on its own.  Now for my favorite the stitched tag - oh my gosh I love it so much!  And then when I figured out that it fits perfectly inside our small treat bags I was thrilled!  And to top off the set, the two small stitched tag shapes are great for many things.  

Oh and I couldn't fail to mention these awesome new stitched Ghost Tag & Jack Tag dies!  They are just perfect for our treat bags and so very cute!
