Fang-tastic Halloween Card using the Big Shot
A quick and easy Halloween card cased from page 10 of of the 2010 Holiday Mini catalogue using Stampin' Up!'s Fang-tastic set. Things I changed: 1. I used Rich Razzleberry as the base card (5 1/2" x 8 1/2"); 2. Crumb Cake embossed with the Spiderweb Textured Impressions folder for background layer (4" x 5 1/4"); 3. Black embossed layer torn (3" x 4"); 4. Happy hallo-scream stamped on Peach Parfait Pattern Paper (1/2" x 2"). Everything else was as shown and I did not spritz the Crumb Cake to leave it clean and simple.

This was another card we made at my September Downline meeting.

More Day of Gratitude Cards
Below are two cards each using using the same stamped centerpiece and a piece of Autumn Spice Designer Series Paper. My first thought was to create my card using the sample in the 2010 Holiday Mini. However, I soon decided there was an easier way to ink this stamp and I love how it turned out. Here is Carrie's card which is the catalog card with a twist:

This will be one of my club projects for October. I used a different pattern of Autumn Spice Designer Series Paper and used the Big Shot to create the the background for the stamped focal point. My card below:
