I promised I'd share a project and here it is. My granddaughter loves Wrigley's 5 Zing gum so I thought I'd wrap it up in a Halloween costume. I used Basic Grey eerie collection. The wrapper is 3 x 6", scored at 3/4, 1-1/4, 3-3/4, 4-1/4. Adhere on the back. The pull-out is 2-1/2 x 5-1/2, scored at 3-3/4 and 4-1/4. The inside edges (second picture) are tapered so it slides in and out easier. The belly band is 1 x 6, adhered in the back. I used a 1-3/8 circle punch with the designer paper, 1-7/16-green; and the scallop circle punch (black) from Stampin' Up! The boo stamp I found at Michael's once upon a time. I sponged Ranger distress ink (crushed olive) for color. I thought the wiggly eyes was a nice touch (a little texture humor). Hope you enjoy this as much as I know my granddaughter will.

I'm excited because I won the Our Craft Lounge September Sketch Challenge. I get to choose a stamp set of my choice from Our Craft Lounge and they have some really cute ones. You just can't beat free. It's the first challenge I've ever entered so I'm encouraged to enter more. There are so many beautiful cards that can be seen in all the challenges.

That's all from To Stamp with Love for now: follow your passion and the universe will take care of the rest.

I love the word books. I used s.e.i "Black Orchid" papers and some of the matching embellishments. After a road trip this summer, this book will be filled with memories. I had so much fun working on this. I think the papers inspired me. I just love them.
