Visiting Teaching Halloween Goodies

I needed something to take to my girls who I visit teach this month, and I made this super quick. I stamped the images in black and then used clear embossing powder over them to make them pop! I used my SU punches to punch the first two layers (the image and bright color) and then my nestabilities to punch the scalloped black layer. I adhered them using some redline dots (from Jody's shares), to the york patties and put them in a cello bag with a black and white polka dot organdy ribbon and VOILA!

Stamps: Batty For You (SU!) Paper: Neenah Solar White, Green Galore (SU!), Lavendar Lace (SU!), Only Orange (SU!), Basic Black (SU!) Ink: Onyx Black Versafine Accessories: Cello Bag, Black and White dotted Organdy ribbon, 1 bag of York Peppermint Patties, clear embossing powder, heat tool, scalloped circle nestabilities, circle punches (1 3/8 and 1 1/4) (SU!)

Oh, I love this. I tried embossing last week and had no luck at all. Guess I had better brush up on my technique if I am going to try this at home!

How fun are these... I made almost the exact same things for the Ladies that I visit teach. Only I added a few covered nuggets to my bags. It's funny how we as LDS sisters kind of all think alike. Great Job... TFS!

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus).
