We are previewing a LOAD of new stamps today!!! I’m working with the Spooky Wreath as well as the Spooky Project Pantry. Spooky Wreath is a fantastic stamp set concepted by Jami Sibly and Illustrated by Nancy McKinney for Whimsical Wishes. The set comes with 7 stamps and coordinates with the Seasonal Wreath Die.

On my card I started with a Scalloped Spellbinders Circle die and cut out my card base. I layered on a few more circles using papers from the Spooky Project Pantry from Echo Park’s Apothecary Emporium line. I added another Spellbinders die cut and the wreath that I die cut using the TE Seasonal Wreath Die. I added some ribbon and the sentiment. To finish it off I used Platinum Liquid Pearls to accent the outside.

 

Here are the Taylored Dies I’ve used on my card:

For my second project today I have this adorable little gable box designed to match my card using a few of the Project Pantry offerings this month. I have to say I was so impressed with this box! It was so easy to put together and decorate. I’m going to have to pick up a few more for all of our family Halloween treats!

To decorate the box I used this Apothecary Emporium paper that is part of this month Project Pantry kit and two of the stamps from Fangtastic. The ribbon is also from this month’s project pantry. I die cut the sentiment using a Spellbinders Label 12 die and sponged it with Spiced Marmalade Distress Ink. I added a bit of Platinum Liquid Pearls to dress it up a bit. On the back I used two of the pumpkins from Fangastic and a masking technique to layer them together.
