Halloween

You’re So Sweet

August 2, 2022 · 2 Comments

Here is our newest two week challenge to inspire you –

Optional Theme : Plants

No plants. Sorry. But this is just the bomb wouldn’t you say! I had to use this Scary Cute stamp set again!

I used the Stamparatus to stamp the three images, even, and nice and dark.

I also used the Stamparatus to stamp the word ‘sweet’ from the Sweetest Cherries stamp set.

This was the neat part. Using the Stamparatus, I masked off ‘sweet’ from the sentiment before stamping it. I used plain gift wrap tape to cover the word ‘sweet’, inked up the other words, removed the tape and stamped the words over the ‘sweet’. I did this twice to make it nice and dark.

This is a wonderful card to demonstrate some of the neat things you can do with a Stamparatus.

Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Here is our latest two week challenge –

Optional Theme : Pattern Paper / DSP (Designer Series Paper)

I used the sweetest Designer Series Paper for this card called Cute Halloween –

Look how I used it –

Sooo sweet! And, this layout is great for scraps too!

This equally adorable stamp set for the sentiment is the Cutest Halloween stamp set –

I strategically punched it using the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch –

Here is a close up of my trim work –

The focal image is from the Designer Series Paper too! I used the Layering Circles Dies for both the circle and the scallop circle behind it!

Such a sweet card! I can not wait to mail it out!

Halloween Snow Globe

September 27, 2019 · Leave a Comment

Thank you for stopping by today!

I thought you might like to see another way to use the Still Scenes bundle other than Christmas –

This is done in a Halloween Theme! I used the Monster Bash Designer Series Paper for the strip and the ‘globe’! I love this house for a globe!

I die cut one of the larger houses from the paper and placed it flat. The snow globe base was stamped and die cut in Pumpkin Pie.

Stamping on Designer Series Paper can be a bit tricky as the paper wants to absorb the ink. I stamped the sentiment here in StazOn ink. It is a pigment ink that is darker and stays more true to color. The first one I stamped was in Black Memento and was very light, hard to see.

It’s all tied off with a little black retired twine. I’m lovin’ this! What are your thoughts?

NACHO, The Tag Says it All

October 17, 2016 · 4 Comments

I’m running late with my post today. I felt my paying job needed to see me this week!

I saw this sketch over at Nacho Average Challenges –

And I loved it! Sadly, I have had to miss their past few sketches……

We have just a couple more weeks that we can use all these wonderful Halloween items we’ve got. So, I came up with this –

Isn’t this just the cutest?

I created a card with this nifty, versatile, tag! Their sketch was perfect for this!

I punched a hole at the top and added the dual Baker’s Twin making a bow.

Look close at the card, see the shiny little line of pumpkins? I took the Fine Tip Glue Pen and added glue drops to each pumpkin. At first it’s really cloudy. But, it dries clear and adds dimension!

I love this little card and can’t wait to send it out!

I’d love to read your comments too!

Happy Stampin’
