Halloween Card and Jeeper Creepers Workshop Your Way



This little monster makes me smile every time!  How about you?

Our wonderful Workshop Your Way scrapbooking kits are a killer deal.  For $26.95 you get everything you need to create three beautiful 2-page layouts, plus you'll have some treat left over...no tricking! (See what I did there? Tricks/Treats and a Halloween card?  Ba Ha Ha! I crack myself up!). This card was inspired by my friend, Melissa Robinson.

Here are a couple details of this card.  Popping things up with 3D foam tape, and adding three-dimensional accents (like the darling google eyes and stars you see on this card from the Jeepers Creepers Assortment) really jazzes up any card or project.



With Halloween coming up, you're sure to have scads of Halloween photos in the next week. With school parties, neighborhood parties, pumpkin patch visits, and trick or treating itself, this is a holiday that is only rivaled by Christmas when it comes to volume of photos taken.  The cool things is, you'll have fun things left over from that kit after you create your three two-page layouts that are perfect for creating a few cards (and who doesn't love having cards on hand for next Halloween?).

Here is what comes in the Jeepers Creepers Workshop Your Way:
  • Jeepers Creepers Paper Packet
  • Jeepers Creepers Complements
  • 5 extra sheets of cardstock (1 Pansy, 2 Whisper and 2 White Daisy)
  • 1 Jeepers Creepers Assortment
  • 1 Jeepers Creepers Washi Pack 
  • Online access to instructions, cutting guides,  and color photos


Here are the three 2-page layouts you create with our Jeepers Creepers Workshop Your Way. Aren't they amazing? 




When you consider all that you can make for a $26.95 workshop, plus having leftovers to create cards, tags, candy bar wrappers, or whatever you choose, it's a pretty SCREAMING deal!  Get yours today here. Anyone that orders this kit from my website before October 31 will receive a handstamped Halloween card from me in the mail.  How's that for a treat?

October Card Buffet




It's time for another Card Buffet!  Join me!

Since I have been doing Card Buffets, they have steadily grown and grown. This is such a fun way to come, have fun, create the cards you need, and go home with cards galore!

My next card buffet dates and times are:
  • Thursday evening, October 20 from 7-9 pm in American Fork, UT
  • Friday morning, October 21 from 10 am - 1 pm in American Fork UT
Call or email me to reserve a spot (801.360.9896, pedermom@aol.com)

There will be some of the following cards to choose from:  Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween, birthday, thank you, sympathy, baby, wedding, all-occasion, and more!  The cards at the top of this post are some of the many you'll be able to make.

Each card you make is only $2*, and that includes everything to make it (you bring your own adhesives) plus the envelope, and that includes having me there to help you with anything you need!  If you've never made cards before, never fear! I'm here to show you how, and all of the cards on the buffet are easy, peasy!

*you can get cards for less than $2 each.  Information on how is in the frequently asked questions below 


Wondering why I call them Card Buffets? It's because it's like an all-you-can-eat food buffet. The difference is that instead of food, it's cards. Instead of eating, you're making (no calories!).  You can make as many as you can finish in the 2 hour time period and pay at the end. 

These buffets will be held in American Fork, UT.  Dates and times to choose from are listed at the beginning of this post. I will allow a maximum of 10 attendees at each class so there will be plenty of space for you to work.  When you call or email me to sign up (pedermom@aol.com, 801.360.9896), I'll give you the exact address. 

Here are a few Frequently Asked Questions:

How does a card buffet work?  Easy!  You come, you eat as much as you want (make as many cards as you want) in the time period of the buffet, and then you go home.

What do I need to bring to the buffet?  Adhesive. That's it. I supply the rest.  I suggest a regular paper adhesive of your choice, glue dots, and 3D foam tape or squares. Bring plenty of each so you don't run out!

How many cards can I make?  As many as you want in the time period. The only rule is you have to finish each card completely before you move to the next card.

How much does it cost?  You pay by the card. $2 per card, which includes envelopes. There are a few ways to get your cards for less. For every friend you register and bring with you, you get .25 off each card. So, bring 2 friends, and your cards are only $1.50 each, bring 3 and they are $1.25, and so on.  The other way is to order at the buffet. For every $25 you order (before shipping and tax), you get .25 off the card prices.  Spend $25, get your cards at $1.75 each. Spend, $50, they'll be $1.50...and so on.  Combine bringing friends and ordering and you could feasibly get your cards for FREE!!!!!

How much time will it take to make each card?  That depends on you and how quick you are. It also depends on which cards you choose.  Some cards are a little more complicated, some are simple, and there are some in between.

How many kits are there for each card?  That varies but there are plenty of cards and kits to keep everyone happy!

What does a kit consist of?  All pre-cut pieces for the card, the card base and envelope, all embellishments, and the use of any tools and supplies (other than your adhesives) that are required to put the card together.

What kinds of cards will be available?  A good variety of all-occasion cards, baby, wedding, thank you, birthday, etc.

What if I love one card and want to make several of that card?  No problem! I just ask that you take one kit of that card at a time and finish that card before you get out another one.

Is there any way to get my cards at a discount?  Yes!  There are 2 ways.
  • When you call to reserve your spot, reserve a spot for a friend that has never attended one of my classes or workshops before and I will take .25 off your $2 per card price, which will get you your cards at $1.75 each.  Bring 2 friends, get your cards for $1.50 each, and so on.
  • The other way is to order at the buffet. For every $25 you order (before shipping and tax), you get .25 off the card prices.  Spend $25, get your cards at $1.75 each. Spend, $50, they'll be $1.50...and so on.
  • By using/combining the two methods above, you could feasibly get your cards for FREE!

Happy Halloween Card and an Artwork Tip


First of all, THANK YOU to everyone who helped me celebrate my 50th birthday by ordering on my website Saturday with my birthday special!  Enjoy your freebies. If you ordered on Saturday and have not yet emailed me with your choice of freebies, please do so today (pedermom@aol.com).

Secondly, Halloween is just around the corner (Seriously! If your time experience is like mine, if you blink, it will be here!). The August Stamp of the Month (Purrfect Halloween) is the perfect set to start getting those cute Halloween cards and treats ready, and perfect after Halloween to use to scrap those awesome pics you took of you, your kids, or your grandkids in costume.  Or if you're a tad behind, use it now to scrap last year's pics!



This set is only available in August and is only $5 ($12.95 savings) with every $50 you order (before shipping and tax). Order $100, get 2...and so on.  When ordering on my website, you'll be prompted to add your set(s) before checking out. Easy, peasy!



Artwork tip:  See that cute "Boo!" background stamping?  It's just the 'boo' stamp from the set. To get this look, take a word stamp and stamp a row across the top of the card.  If you have a ruler handy, line it across to help you stay straight. The second row, you'll do the same thing but stagger those so that they don't line up exactly with the stamps in the first row. Move on to third row, stagger again, etc.  It's a quick and easy way to create a uniform but fun background with a single word stamp.

I've included a list of the products I used, as well as photos and links for your convenience, at the end of this post.

Witch Hat Halloween Card


The August Stamp of the Month is full of Halloween goodness, and what a great time to get it. NOW, instead of in October when you are rushing to get everything else Halloween (like your kids' costumes, etc) done.  Not only is this a great set, in a great month, but it's only $5 ($12.95 savings) with every $50 you order (before shipping and tax). Order $100, get 2...and so on. When ordering on my website, you'll be prompted to add your set(s) before checking out.  I've added a list of all of the products I used at the very end of this post, complete with photos and links for your convenience.



Here is a close up of a couple of the hats so you can see how beautifully our Shin Han alcohol markers blend and shade:

TIP: Remember that when using alcohol markers, you want to be sure to stamp your image with the Memento Tuxedo Black pad and let it dry for a few minutes before coloring.  This is the best pad for markers because once it's dry, it doesn't smear with alcohol ink.
