More cheap & creepy decor!

What's a girl to do when she's stuck at home on a friday night with two little boys and nowhere to go? Make the house creepier! Tomorrow is October 1st! I couldn't resist pulling out my cheap halloween decor that I bought from the Dollar Tree back in August. LOL. yes August.

In my town, if you don't grab it now, it won't be there later. Esp at the DT!

These creepy spiders were 2/$1.00 at the dt. I attached them using scrapbooking pop dots.

Then I decided to go gather some broken branches from the woods and spray paint them black. I then spray painted an old coffee can black and added some sand in the bottom. Then I stuck my painted branches in it and added some rocks to keep it all in place. Then I spray painted the rocks on top black as well.

When I got it inside, I added 3 of these crows. I got them for $1.00 each at DT. I think Michael's has them too, but probably not for a dollar. I also had some spanish moss laying around and added it too!

My kids love it!!

A Creepy Hallowen Card + Freebie!

Only 80 days left til Halloween! Haha. I love Halloween. I think it is quite possibly the most fun holiday of them all. I couldn't wait for Halloween to come back around this year because I was dying to get back to making Halloween cards! I absolutely love the Creepy Crow Set from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff.

 The drippy goo border is a former svg freebie, you can find it here.

I used this week's sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches. This card qualifies for Our Daily Bread Designs: "3 of Something" and OWH: "Fall Cards".

I was especially excited since I got my copic markers! I could have done so many different things with this stamp, like a orange sunset or a cloudy sky, but instead I decided to go for the creepy night sky look. I googled a pic of a spooky graveyard and used that as my inspiration.

Now for your freebie! Another chic lookin' lady! If you missed the others, look through my former posts.

And don't forget to stop by Lindsay's blog to grab a freebie and check out the DT gal's work!

Creepy Crow Card & Freebie Thursday

It's Thursday again! So you know what that means! It's time for a Lindsay's Stamp Stuff project and a freebie! This week I decided to have another go at the Creepy Crow Collection that Lindsay had created. I just love this set. It is so spooky! The whole set is only $5.00! And Lindsay is running a special this month! For every $5 you spend, you get to choose one free single stamp! Awesome deal! Also, don't forget to check out Lindsay's blog for a freebie and links to the rest of the DT's creations!

For the card, I used this sketch from Twilight Tuesday! I just love their challenges and sketches. If you're a fan of Twilight, YOU NEED to check it out! It is definately fueling my need for all things Twilight until the movie comes out! They're having a blog hop on October 27th that I'll be participating in, if you'd like to sign up, go here. Another reason that I used this stamp for a Twilight challenge is because it reminds me of the Vampire Diaries. They have had several scenes in a graveyard with crows present, so this card speaks to that as well.

Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Day!

Well it's Thursday, so you know what that means! It's time for LSS! She has released yet another awesome set of stamps! It is very creepy, gothic and edgy and of course I love them! It is the Creepy Crow Set available for only $5.00! Perfect for a spooky halloween card! Check out Lindsay's blog to get a freebie from this set today!


Here is a card that I created using the Creepy Crow ATC from the set. It was so fun to color! I also used a piece from LSS Elegant Card Kit in off white. I printed it on tan paper and then folded to make my card. You can find it here for only $2.00! The sentiment under the image is also part of the set. Makes putting the card together a "no-brainer". If you can't tell, I've already decorated my house in halloween decor, so I used that as my backdrop. haha.
Also new to LSS, she has created these one-of-a-kind Cupcake wrappers. This is a first for me! I've never seen anything like them before! Perfect for any party! Here you get a set of birthday cupcake wrappers to print color and cut out and a blank tempate that you can print on pretty paper and cut out. You could aso print it on cardstock and embellish with traditional rubber stamps, how fun is that! You get them both for only a buck! Assembly is super easy, just cut them out, put glue on the flap and glue to the back of the opposite end to form a cone. The cupcake will fit neatly inside. You get 3 wrappers from each sheet of paper!

Ok, now for my project this week! I finally got around to scrapping my Halloween pics from last year. I was Cruella DeVille and my son was a dalmation puppy. I used the Spiderweb Border SVG freebie that I made. I used 3 stamps from LSS. I used Harry the Spider, Spooky Pumpkins and Halloween Journal. I used last week's sketch from Crafts by Rowena.

Here is a close up of the journalling. I used LSS's Halloween Journal block and then used individual text boxes to put the words on each line perfectly. I used Edward's handwriting from Twilight. It was a freebie, you can find here.

**Freebie Thursday will be posted later today!
