Trick Or Treat

Good morning everyone!  I'm sharing tags using Halloween stamps from Paperie Ink.

These sweet trick-or-treaters are from the Boo Crew and Happy Haunting stamp sets.  I used a die to cut the tags from some colorful Doodlebug Design paper and black twine so I could attach them to bags of candy.  I stamped all the images on Neenah cardstock, colored them with copics, and then fussy-cut them.  I used a black glaze pen on the critters' eyes and noses and added Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the candies.  I attached the images and sentiments with foam tape.




Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Haunting

Good morning everyone!  I'm sharing a couple of quick and easy Halloween cards using stamps from Paperie Ink.

These sweet trick-or-treaters are from Paperie Ink.  I sponged distress oxide inks on the front of the cards and then spattered thinned black and white acrylic paints.  I stamped the images on Neenah cardstock and ran them through my ScanNCut, and colored them with copics.  I used a black glaze pen on the critters' eyes and added Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the candies.  I heat-embossed the sentiments and then attached the images and sentiments with foam tape.  


Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you have a fabulous day!

STAMPtember Exclusive by The Greeting Farm

Good morning friends!  I'm excited to share the stamp that The Greeting Farm created for Simon Says Stamp's STAMPtember celebration!  This stamp is only available at Simon Says Stamp while supplies last!




The stamp set is called Got Cake and it's so perfect for celebration cards.  I diecut a stitched scalloped rectangle from bristol card and sponged on Twisted Citron and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks.  I stamped the images on Neenah cardstock, colored them with copics, and fussy-cut them.


I added Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Pen to the cupcake and used a white gel pen to add polka dots to the gift box.  I adhered the images with foam tape and added a few clear star sequins.


You can purchase the Got Cake stamp set or the Got Cake stamp and die set from Simon Says Stamp for a limited time, while supplies last.  The exclusive collaborations are selling out in record time this year so act fast if you want it!

In The Meadow We Can Build A Snowman

Good morning!  Today I'm sharing a fun slimline shaker card I created for The Greeting Farm.


These
 adorable images are from the new Falala stamp set that was released earlier this month.  I love all the sweet snowpeople and thought it would be fun to create a slimline shaker card.


I used some slimline dies to diecut the base of my card and I covered it with snowflake paper that I found in my stash.  I diecut the 3-window stitched rectangle and covered the back with acetate.  I stamped all the images, ran them through my ScanNCut, and colored them with copics.  I adhered the trees to my card and then added some snowy slopes.  I used foam tape and clear sequins to create my shaker card.  Lastly, I adhered all the cute snowpeople and gifts to the front of my card.



Copics Used:

Snowpeople - BV20, BG70, R00

Trees - G28, G24, G21

Hats/Scarves/Gifts - R59, R37, R35; YG17, YG13, YG01; B29, B26, B24, B21; BG09, BG07, BG05, BG02

Spooky

Good morning everone!  I'm sharing a Halloween card using new stamps from Paperie Ink.

Today I'm using the new My Boo stamp set.  My black card base measures 3.5" x 8.5".  I diecut a piece of bristol card and sponged on some distress oxide inks.  I thinned some black acrylic paint and spattered it over the bristol card.  I diecut the SPOOKY letters from gray and black cardstock, adhered them together, and then glued them onto my card.

I diecut trees and grass from black cardstock and adhered those to my card base.  I stamped the cute ghosts and headstones on Neenah cardstock, colored them with copics, and then fussy cut them.  I adhered the stamped images with liquid glue.
