HALLOWEEN–SWEATER PUMPKIN AND CARDS

20160912_13154020160912_13150520160912_131449 Aren’t these adorable!  They can be made with a sweater or a stretchy shirt.  These were made from the sleeve.  You can make two to three pumpkins from one sleeve.  From the middle of the shirt you can make one big pumpkin.  Cut the sleeve into two or three pieces.  Sew the bottom with a gather stitch and gather, turn inside out to do this.  Do the same at the top opening and gather but leave a hole at the top to stuff it.  Stuff and pull all the way tight and then sew down the middle so the top indents some.  Hot glue a stick in the middle, add some buttons and a bow with rope or whatever you want.  Thanks to Debbie Martin for showing us how to do this today.

HALLOWEEN CARDS MADE WITH PRODUCTS FROM THE 2016 HOLIDAY CATALOG.

These cards were made from products from the new StampinUp Holiday catalog for 2016.  The first one is a peek-a-boo card.  When you open it, the greeting slides up to the opening (oval).  The DSPaper and the string are from the catalog.  The mummy card is a shaker card.  This halloween stamp set, called Cookie Cutter Halloween is adorable and pairs with the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set that has a matching punch with it.  You can also use the punch to punch out four adorable figures that come in the Halloween set.  The stamp set, the paper and the string all come from the Holiday catalog.  The third card uses an embossing folder that looks like a sweater and gives a 3D effect to the card.  The stamp is called Halloween Treat and the Designer Series Paper and the black and orange paper also come from the catalog.  There are many more items that are just as cute in the Holiday Catalog.  If you don’t have a catalog yet and would like one (and you don’t already have a demonstrator), just leave a comment on this post and I will get one to you.  You can also email me at darstz@hotmail.com.  To see the catalog online and to shop in my store, go to http://darleneseitz.stampinup.net.
