Hi and Happy Friday! It’s Lisa here, and I  have so many things to share with you today! So I’ll start off with something I’ve been waiting for: the new Hero Arts-Sizzix collection is HERE!

Check them all out HERE in the Hero Arts Online Store. In addition to the Stamp & Embossing Folder and Stamp & Die Cut sets that we’ve had before, there are now sets of TWO embossing folders, some of which coordinate with existing stamps. (Chevrons, flourishes, and doilies — oh yes!)

I’ve been waiting to get my hot little hands on these since they debuted at CHA back in July, so of course I had to work some in to the Halloween card for today!

Find out how to make this card — click for complete supplies and instructions.

To get this glittery effect, I stamped the Scary Pumpkin on black cardstock using a glue pad, then applied glitter. So easy and so fun! I carried the glittery theme to the background by adding purple glitter to the new Fun Stripes background and coordinating embossing folder.

And that’s not all! This card has a hidden trick — the Scary Pumpkin wobbles back and forth thanks to an action wobbler spring! Here he is in action:

Can you tell I was giggling the whole time I made the card? Ha!

Next, I get to announce the two lucky winners of our August monthly shopping spree! Yippee! Congratulations to Terri Howe and Sue Downey, who each won a $50 shopping spree in the Hero Arts Online store! Wonder what they will get? New Sizzix perhaps?

Want to win a shopping spree? Of course you do, ha! To enter, just join the Hero Club, then leave a comment on any blog post during the month. The more comments you leave, the more chances you have to win!

Now, one last thing before I go! Need a little extra inspiration for autumnal stamping? Check out the Fall Feast idea sheet, published today!

Whew, you made it to the end of the post! Thanks so much for sticking with me — give yourself a big hug. See you on Monday — can’t believe it will be October already, can you? Guess time really does fly when you’re having fun!

Hope you have a stampy great weekend,
