Welcome to the Stampin Friends October Blog Hop!
We will be hopping on the third Thursday every month, with a different theme to inspire you each time :)
The theme for October is 'Halloween'.
If you just arrived from Cheryl's Blog, thank you for continuing with the hop!
You can continue on the blog hop in a loop by clicking on the Next button below.

This month we are excited to have two Awesome Guest Hoppers that you should definitely check out!
Cindy Slack Waldroff and Maria Willis
Oh. My. Goodness. 
I have never been a super duper fan of Halloween, and since moving to the US, and as the children have gotten older I have to admit I try to avoid it - but the selection of Halloween crafty stash in the Stampin' Up! 2015 Holiday Catalog is AWESOME!! I am SO IN LOVE with the Haunt Ya Later Stamp set. Isn't it SO CUTE?! It is without a doubt my favourite set at the moment.  And, who doesn't love to colour-in? 

My card for this hop is a bit minimalist on the outside....

But the inside has a wee bit of pop-up fun....It's hard to see but there are flying bats (on strips of window sheet) too.

Always one who loves light-up crafty projects, I decided to make a lantern to match the card...I used the Gift Bag Punch Board with vellum for this, then added a trim of the Black Glimmer Paper. I found these battery operated orange mini lights in Target in the sale section a few days ago.
