Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!

This month’s theme is Animal House—and the Pals are here to inspire you with a parade of paw-some card ideas and paper craft creations, all featuring Stampin’ Up! products. At the end of each post, you’ll find links to all the participant blogs so you can “hop” along and gather ideas to make your own projects roar with personality.

Just what is an Animal House? A funny movie? A house for a pet?  Maybe it’s a haunted house full of bats, crows and black cats. 

If you like kits this project is for you. The Sweet & Spooky Kit is a fun kit all by itself. Pair it with some Spooky Sweet Designer Series Paper and the Fright Night Bundle to create  one-of-a-kind projects, like this one.
