Today we're also featuring some festive Halloween crafts from Nicole Eccles and Gloria Stengel of our design team! Halloween is fast approaching and we thought these great crafts would help inspire some last minute Halloween crafting! There's still time to whip up something marvelously spooky! Check out this amazing Halloween lantern by Nicole Eccles! She's going to shine some light on Halloween inspiration with this amazing work of art! Here's what Nicole had to say about this clever creation.

"This fun Halloween lantern was created using the 5x5 Graphic 45 Altered Art Box!  So simple to create, all you need is the altered art box, colored vellum, a craft knife, clip light, small low watt light bulb, some wonderful Graphic 45 papers, and a little imagination!    ** Clip lights can be found at your local hardware store, created to clip into small openings, great for lanterns, small Christmas houses, and altered art boxes!!! To create the perfect window for the vellum, use a craft knife to cut an opening thru the flap directly under the cover.  Using the opening on the cover as a guide to cut the layer underneath. Before adhering colored vellum between the flap and cover, make sure to cut a hole in the back for a small clip light and low watt light bulb. For the hole in the back, measure the diameter of your clip lamp and draw a circle on the back center of the box.  Cut the circle out using a craft knife.  *This time you are cutting thru 2 layers of chipboard, so be patient! Now colored vellum may be adhered between layers.  Last, glue the top cover shut, and decorate with Graphic 45 papers!   Embellish as inspired!!" -Nicole Eccles

This next wickedly clever creation is by Gloria Stengel. She's created a fabulous Magic of Oz table decoration that is out of this world! Each unique panel is bursting with beauty and the festive spirit of Halloween! Here is what Gloria had to say about this gorgeous piece of holiday decor!

"I enjoy creating unique and fun decorations for the holidays. For this faux screen table decoration, I simply attached thick chipboard to the back of cardstock to create a "screen" to act as my canvas. I cut cardstock to 6x12 inches, scored at 3, 6, and 9 inches. Then I glued chipboard to the back of each of the four panels to make the screen study. Each 3x6 inch panel is  decorated in a Halloween theme." -Gloria Stengel

The projects are amazing! Thanks for the great inspiration!

Ohhh.... I love the lattern! Love love love it!

Fabulous projects today!

Wow these new stamps are just fabulous, so much lovely detail to admire!

If I had the new Tropical Travelogue collection in my hands right now, I would book a trip to Hawaii (so I could have even more layouts to create), then scrapbook pics from a luau party while waiting!

Wow those are truly amazing stamps!

I'm totally in love with stamp no.1 en no.2, how I would love to create something with them. If I had this awesome collection, I would scrap all my beachy and vacation photo's.

I was trying to pick my favorite stamp but I can't choose they are all wonderful!

The projects are a wow! But the new paper collection is even WOW-zier (new word just for Tropical Travelogue!) :)

I can't wait to order this in to our shop and teach a class using it...I've sent links to all my students and they're clamoring already! Fantastic job, G45!! As always. :)

i loove the stamps!can't wait to get my hands on them.:)

If I had the whole collection, I'd HAVE to make an altered art shadowbox and add some funky vintage souvenir figurines I've collected :)

These stamps are just WOW-y gorgeous:) I especially love the Aloha and postage stamp stamps...true must-haves!

Amazing project, love gorgeous details. Perfect for Halloween. :) Thanks for the inspiration.

Love those gorgeous stamps and the vintage feel. Would love the have them. :)

wonderful projects

If I had some of the goodies from the new Tropical Travelogue range I would make a mini book with some of the photos from my recent trip to Malaysia. Cant wait to get started!

Another beautiful collection from Graphic 45. Looking forward to using these papers in my scrapbook

If I had the Tropical Travelogue collection...I would make a mini scrapbook for my adventures on the beach. This is a beautiful collection! Karen :)

I went on a cruise in march & haven't finished scrapping it yet, so I would definately use the tropical travelouge items on my pages. Also," Aloha" & birds (since they are going birding) would be great for a mini gift when my parents go to hawaii for their 40th anniversary!!!

You guys just keep getting better and better...so crazy how gorgeous papers and those stamps are! And Gloria is incredibly talented as well as Nicole!!! Well done everyone!!

Fab sneak peek and gorgeous projects! Loved both of them! TFS

Waving hand...waving hand...pick me to win that Travelogue collection! I have waited so long for the perfect paper to scrap our Hawaii trip, and now the paper is here! Absolutely gorgeous paper and wonderful embellies!

Now you are making things difficult! Which stamp set shall I choose as I can not afford them all?

Wow! I definitely see several stamps that I will have to get! I am so excited for this release!

Just Wicked! (in a good way). With the Tropical Travelogue I now have a really great way to scrap my trip to the British Virgin Islands. Love those stamps! Just too much. Thanks.

fantastic stamps !

The Tropical Travelogue collection is so yummy....I would probably make travel box for all the treasures collected from beach holidays. The companion stamps are perfect compliment to the paper collection!

These stamps are stunningly terrific. Even my hubs is excited about this new collection!

amazing!

I LOVE the stamps - so classy!!

What wonderful Halloween projects! I love the new Tropical Travelogue stamps. So pretty. They will make beautiful cards. Great for a calendar, summer getaway layouts, and a travel journal. I am looking forward to getting them when they come out! Thank you for the great inspiration.

Fabulous stamps!... Stamp Set #2 is on my wish list :)

LOVE the OZ stuff. I'm a big fan.

MAGIC OF OZ is so darned cool. It is great for Halloween, but also for just cool projects alllll year long.

The stamps are lovely! By contrast, the Halloween projects are spooky and fun! Makes me sad that Halloween will be over in a week!

The Tropical Travelogue stamps are completely gorgeous!!!

As usual, your design team has outdone even itself! Wonderful Halloween projects. Love the new Stamps. I'd use them and the new paper to scrap a Caribbean cruise I took a hundred years ago (almost) and never printed the pictures! And it was a CRAFTING CRUISE!!!

Well of course I love all 3 sets!!!


those stamps are just divine! how versatile - can imagine them on so many layouts from travel to girls with butterflies and holidays and beaches and ......

thanks g45, superb as usual!
