Happy Halloween!

While all the little ones in my house are excited to dress up for trick or treating this evening (pictures to come) I thought I would share the projects that we created in our halloween class last week!

Who doesnt love a cute little witch on halloween and she sure is a cute one!

This card makes me think of my dad....He loved candy corn...I made this candy corn using the pennant punch!

Treats for the little ones! M&Ms covered with a cute monster! Addison loved these!

A treat bag for all the yummy treats and some super cute pumpkins with mustaches to boot!

One last treat that we made, this can so easily be adapted for the holidays! I hope these ideas inspire you to have a fun Halloween!

Fall Wreath

I have been trying to create new projects that I can decorate the house with for fall...I had some scraps of Spice Cake Fabric, went a bought a foam wreath and this is what I ended up with...

I like this addition to our coat closet door in the foyer for fall!

So we spent last week at the beach...thought you might enjoy a photo...

It was ethans first trip and he totally is a beach bum and slept on the beach every time we were out there....he definitly vacationed...It is nice to be home and ready to get back to stampin and decorating my house for fall....Lots of DIY projects I will be sharing this week!

Happy Stamping!

Yellow and Gray

A color combination that has become very popular within the last few months is Grey and Yellow!

This color combination is classic and beautiful, it is gives anything a fresh look...

Try this great combo for fall cards or any project to freshin things up for fall!

Fun Flowers-Cancer Display

This past month the foundation has been working on a project taking pledges to tell others about Ovarian Cancer. Each pledges name was placed on a flower and there were also in memory butterflies that could be purchased as well. Every flower or butterfly was a $1 Donation to the Carolina Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. At the end of the month we created this display at the Blumenthal Cancer Center is Charlotte.

Our hope was that this display would encourage and uplift women as they go in for treatment this last week in September we placed over 300 flowers and butterflies in the display...

Using the fun flowers die and the butterfly die we created the display. You can do so much with creativity, using it to uplift and encourage. You can check out more on the Linda F. Kelly Foundation facebook page.

Old Fall Fun!

I know this is a card from last year but it is still one of my favorite cards. I love this stamp set that is still available in the big idea book! Great for fall! Oh how I love that it is offically fall!  I am headed to the beach monday and I will have lots to share with you through out the week of different projects and even a tutorial for the Fall wreath made with the Simply Scored tool! I hope you will also check back monday for pictures from the display that the foundation put up at the Blumenthal Cancer Center using Fun Flowers Die and the Butterfly die! You are going to love it!

In a fall mood...

The weather is cooler and there is a feeling in the air that fall is right around the corner!

Friday marks the first day of fall and I am so excited to get out the fall decorations and go pick pumpkins, drink apple cider and all things fall!

This is one of  my fall card ideas from last year but it certainly is one of my favorites! The Top note die makes a great pumpkin! Great for Halloween or anything fall! Would even make a great addition to a scrapbook page!

So another adventure I have taken on is Scentsy...Just to test the waters, mostly just selling it for me but I am not against taking orders! You can shop online anytime http://michellerabon.scentsy.us/ and since we are on the subject of fall you need to get a fall warmer and some great fall scents! This warmer and the scent pumpkin marshmellow are on sale this month!

Happy Stamping!

Last PUNCH!

I hope you are going to try and do some creative things with your punches! These are just a few ideas that you can try, the possibilities are endless!

This is a card idea I have seen circulating amongst several demonstrators and why not its so cute! This tree is made using the triple layer flower punch and the trunk is made from the decorative label punch...

I hope you will try out these cards for yourself they will be a great hit this fall!

Happy PUNCHING!

All these PUNCHES must be giving you a black eye!

I know all this punching is starting to hurt, only 2 more cards to show and then the punching will stop...lol (my husband says Im not funny but I beg to differ)

This was yet another borrowed idea from regionals....The flower is made with the butterfly punch and the scallop border punch and the triple layer flower punch is also used on this card.

(Dont be mad but the thanksgiving stamp isnt available...I know I know, I dont understand why stampin up did away with it, but dont fear check out the Hand Penned Holiday set in the new mini, you will love it and forget all about that stamp!)

Order online anytime http://www.michellerabon.stampinup.net/ and have it shipped directly to your door!

Dont make me PUNCH you again!! hehe

So yesterday I shared the project that we did at the Chomp Chomp Workshop,

today I am going to share one of the cards that we made...

Another great idea that I borrowed from regionals for class last night...

Dont you just love this card! What mom to be wouldnt ooo and ahhh all over this card!

The cloud was created using the Flower punch, the sailboat is made with the circle punch and the penant punch, the water is the edge of the scalloped pennant on the pennant punch!

I hope you will try and make one at home! 

Your About to get PUNCHED!

Last night was the Chomp Chomp Workshop (Creative ways to use your punches)

We had a great time discovering all the awesome ways that you can use your punches!

Here is the first project that we made...a project idea I borrowed from Regionals!

This is a super cute gift bag that anyone would love to get a present in! The gift bag itself is a gift with all that work you put in...but just a hint...ITS SO EASY TO MAKE!

The watermelon is made with the circle punch and the seeds with the triple layer flower punch!

These watermelons would make a super cute card to match this super cute bag!
