Wow - we're finally here! The day Wanda's Pantry and Midnight Feast are finally available to purchase!
And as is the WMS tradition - Claire and the Design Team are having a blog waltz! You should start the waltz with Claire - if you came here from Belinda's blog - you're in the right place!
I have two final projects to share with you today - another ghoulish treat and a Horribly Happy card!
Ok - so here's my final offering to gross you out this week - I promise! - a tasty bottle of Vampire Blood! Before you even say 'yuck' - I'll tell you it's just strawberry jello! Doesn't this look totally cool?!?
I recycled a plastic jar of Dole Fruit for my container. The top band (to cover the word 'Dole' imprinted in the bottle) is stamped with the fripperie bg stamp from last month's release - Victorian Fripperie. I stamped the label and the panel in black on white card stock and sponged the edges with Barn Door and Tea Dye distress inks. I used the drip punch for the cover's edge. (I'm so glad I bought that punch last year on sale after season!)
For the top of the cover - I used the circle frame stamp and a sentiment, again from Victorian Fripperie - they go so well with these new Halloween sets! I stamped the little newt beneath the sentiment, added tiny gems and sponged the edges.
On the back I used two of the sentiments from Midnight Feast and 'Oh My' from Victorian Fripperie.
And finally - I just couldn't end the Sneaks without making at least ONE card!
And the happy news!!!! You have 2 chances to win a free WMS stamp set - 1) by leaving a comment at Claire's blog, and 2) by leaving a comment on each of the DT 's blogs.
Two random winners will be chosen - you must leave your comments by 11:59 pm EST on Thurs 7/29/10. Winners will be announced on Claire's blog on 7/30/10
Now waltz over to Anya's blog to see what ghoulish creation she has for us!

Totally amazing and fabulously wicked, Julia! A complete meal with your creations! (Wicked) LOL!
Julia, this just made me laugh...first I read the vampire blood label, then the bon appetit label on the lid...just too funny!
Another awesome project! Love this! I am really diggin' these new images! I'd better get over to WM and check them out!
Oh dear! Vampire blood??? Yikes.
Your presentation is perfect though - very scary! I love the halloween card - I'm getting in the mood, for sure!
You've outdone yourself this release with treacherous treats wrapped in elegant frippery. The fresh plucked eyeballs were the most nightmarish to me.
Vampire blood is looking real good to me now! Great Jar.
Julia - once again I am so inspired & grossed out at the same time :) Love your jar of jello & your card is spooktacular! The embossed Goth window looks great!
Hah, I totally love the idea of strawberry jello blood - doesn't it look sooo real!! Great!
LOVE IT!! Wonderful ideas on how to make the most of these stamps :)
Absolutley ghoulish. Love what you have done with these.
Great work!! Both projects are so cool! I added Victorian Fripperie to my order after seeing this post Julia!
What a fabulous project!!! Love it!!! And spooky enough for Halloween !!!
Your BLOOD rocks!! and so does the card...
Love your creations!!
That red distress ink is perfection on these labels...How ever did you think of jello too?
Love it!!! I can imagine all the great food display projects for a Halloween party. Love the drip punch on the jar. Great card, as I love Halloween.
Great projects! Great idea to use strawberry jello.
lovin' all the halloween ideas. tfs
The strawb jello is ACE! Love the card also... the window is the main reason I've just bought the set LOL!
Angela xxx.
Great job! Loved the jar of eyeballs.
I just love your projects. The jar is great and the card is wonderful. I love the colors on the card. Perfect! TFS
Great projects! Love the drippy goo border, the fripperie, and the strawberry jello, lol!
I love, love, love halloween. These are going to be great with our annual halloween costume party. You are so crafty. What a hoot these will be. Thanks, Debbie
superb combination of stamps. The jello jar looks so convincing with that amazing label with the very official silhouette! Want them stamps now!!!!!
Halloween is my favorite holiday! I can not wait to start designing treats for the little ones.
Ghoulishly delightful, Julia!
Wow! I love how you sponged the edges - how it gradually goes from dark on the outside to light on the inside. I have seen lots of people distress the edges, but nothing quite as beautiful as this. Please do a tutorial on exactly how you do it!
Dawn
I REALLY love the Vampire Blood stamp, very versatile!
You are amazing Julia!!! I especially love the goo band around the lid... nice touch!
It's only fair that you polished it off with the vampire blood. I'm still trying to get past the partially decomposed fingers!!!
I have just drooled all week at your Halloween creations! I love them all!
Loving this! Halloween is my favorite holiday!
