What's a party without chips and dip? It never seems to fail, chips and dip are a staple at most parties, events and holidays. This is a quick and fun way to dress up any plate of chips and dip. Rubber stamp selections are endless so this would work for any event!

I enjoy Halloween and am so very impressed when people make gross and gory costumes, props and food, however, I am not extremely thrilled to eat anything that actually looks like blood or guts. I would say I'm more of a cute Halloween food eater!

If you are anything like me and don't want your Halloween guests to be completely grossed out by everything being served (or if you are serving children) you could make these simple homemade stamped tortilla chips. They are sure to be eaten and will nicely accompany a gory food event if that's your theme.

These chips can be prepared one or two days in advance and stored in an airtight container until the party guests arrive. When the event starts serve with your favorite dip(s).

This is a great idea, congrats on the contest! My room mate says she's going to use this next time we have a party, I'll take a picture and post it here if she does.

I am SOOO making these. A & J LOVE chips & I love Halloween! And these are adorable. This idea is fantastic & easily can be changed for themed parties too. Chips & dip are a staple of any party. These could be changed to your favorite sports team or birthday party, etc... Awesome Idea as always Wold360.
