Hello! My name is Cynthia Roybal and I am very proud to be a Guest Designer for Fiskars. I have been a big fan of Fiskars scissors and cutters for many years and I am thrilled that Fiskars has expanded their line of products to stamps, scrapbook papers, and other versatile tools for all crafters.

I am always looking for cute, quick, and colorful projects for my family and coworkers for the holidays. This Halloween, I am treating them to some altered goodies using some of my favorite punches, acrylic stamps, and scrapbook papers. I hope you enjoy the following projects!
