This is the first of three projects we made at the September Stamp Club gathering. It’s a super quick and easy card.
Basic Black card base with a piece of Happy Hauntings DSP and a Spider Web Doily on the front. If The Broom Fits stamp in Basic Black on Very Vanilla card stock, matted with Basic Black card stock, and attached to card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. That’s it!
If you want, you can glue a piece of Very Vanilla card stock to the inside of the card to write on. Or you can write directly on the Basic Black card stock with a White Signo UniBall Gel Pen.
TIP: Before gluing the DSP to the card base, glue on the doily, then use Craft Scissors to trim the bits that extend past the edge.
Here’s what we used:

I like to have treats ready for my Stamp Club members when we meet. This month I decorated some Basic Black Fry Boxes with Smoky Slate “tombstones” and Basic Grey owls. A Tangelo Twist banner lets everyone know what’s inside. Here they are decorated and waiting to be filled…
…and here they are full of chocolates. Since the one tombstone says “Death by chocolate” it HAD to be chocolates, right? But really you could put all manner of goodies in these adorable little boxes.
TIP 1: I stamped the sentiments on Tangelo Twist card stock, then cut them into strips. I inserted each end into the back of the Washi Label Punch to cut the ends.
TIP 2: For the owls’ eyes, I used Circle Punches in 1/2″, 1/4″, and 1/8″.

I decorated the water bottles with Happy Haunting DSP belly bands and Tangelo Twist labels cut with the Note Tag Punch.
TIP 3: Attach the belly bands to the bottles before attaching the labels. I use a piece of Tear & Tape at each end of the belly band. If you adhere the labels to the belly bands first, they may not curve correctly around the bottles.
Both of these projects are quick and easy, and would be great for your Halloween gatherings, school classes, and even Trick or Treaters.

We made three cards this month: Halloween, Thanks, and a Christmas easel card. Be sure to check back in the coming days for details on each one.
I can’t seem to remember to take photos during our gatherings – I’m always too busy having fun – but I did get this shot of Caitlin proudly showing off her easel card. Check back to see how we lit the fire in the fireplace!
Here’s what I used for the treat boxes and water bottle labels:
