Halloween Tag - trick or treat

Please click here for Tip Thursday 9/10 Color Tags & Dry Embossing. Please visit during Sept for new Tip Thursdays.
 
Rcvd my first STAMPtember Simon order. Used a Simon stamp/die to make the tag. Used the trick or treat die on yellow cardstock to frame the stamped trick or treat on orange tag layer beneath. Stamped, colored & die cut some candy corn (great way to cover up some smudges, heehee). 

I like candy corn and like the Autumn Mix better since it has pumpkins in it as well as candy corn. My fav Halloween candy is or should I say was (reason I say was is because I have not seen the dark choc Reeses in 2 yrs, there was none to be found last yr & so far none this yr) dark chocolate Reeses pumpkins. What is your fav Halloween candy?

Fond of Snoopy and my mantle is partially decorated for Halloween.

Supplies
cardstock/paper: oranges, white, yellow
  pattern - Candy Corn
Crayola: pencil colors
CTMH: Shimmer pen clear
Die-Namics: die - Tag Stax
ink: VersaFine Onyx Black
markers: Stampin' Up

Back to School Forest scene

Please click here for Tip Thursday 9/10 Color Tags & Dry Embossing. Please visit during Sept for new Tip Thursdays.
 
Decided to think outside the box or should I say outside in the forest for this Back to School creation. The students and teachers are keeping their social distance. Did not mask them up. The students are sitting on mushrooms at the tree stump desk. Here schools are virtual & in person and some have both choices. My daughter has been out of school; she completed her Master's degree 3 yrs ago.

Supplies
cardstock/paper: brown, chalk black (Easel center), 
  Kraft, white  
  pattern - brown that is tree stump
chalk: white (calligraphy write Back to School on Easel)
Crayola: pencil colors
ink: CTMH Toffee, VersaFine Onyx Black 
recycle: cardboard - used for sturdiness

Pizza Slice Love Card

Like pizza with a lot more toppings except for no anchovies than on this card version. Made this to give to my hubby for our Anniversary in Nov. (yes, I made it way early, need to make sure I put it somewhere where I'll be able to find it then).

Got creative making this a slider card as well as making the plaid. Made the plaid using a Close To My Heart retired stamp Build-A-Plaid.

You Make Life Fun LF Interactive Pool/Summer Card

Had fun creating this interactive card. Used Lawn Fawn LF slide die & LF stamp/die.

We have a pool but no slide and no diving board. Shortly after moving in 20+ yrs ago we had the diving board removed and changed the pool into a volleyball style pool with depth in middle deeper and at end end not as deep. Changed plaster to fiberglass, had pool tile & brick coping redone and deck redone with pave stoning. 2 yrs ago we changed the spa to a wade out area. The spa heater was not working and would have cost more to redo that and we did not use the spa so the wade out area is better. Daisy Rey our Lab/Retriever Mix would not go into the pool into we had the wade out area remodeling. She can lay down and just get her tummy wet. Holly Blossom our German Shepherd/Husky Mix went in for a brief time when we had some friends of my daughters over.
