    Today I'm excited to share with you a sneak peek of one of the cards we will be making at my monthly Stamp Club this Friday.  You will find a complete supply list at the end of this post.


    What a great fall card!  I had a lot of fun making this card.  I also love that you can save 15% when you get the bundle!  The bundle includes the Happy Scenes stamp set and the Hearth & Home Thinlits Dies.  

    The card base is Tangelo Twist card stock layered with a piece of Basic Black card stock.  The plaid piece is from the Happy Haunting DSP pack.  The bottom is a piece of Very Vanilla card stock embossed with the Brick Wall Textured Impressions Embossing Folder ... more on this part later.  I added a small strip of Basic Black card stock where the DSP and brick embossed piece meet.


    The fall scene was made by stamping the tree with pumpkins and spider and web images from the Happy Scenes stamp set using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  Next came all of the sponging.  First Daffodil Delight and then Tangelo Twist around the edges.  The bottom was sponged with Crumb Cake.  I colored the leaves and pumpkins using the Tangelo Twist marker. 

    Next I used the Hearth & Home Thinlits Dies to cut out the window and hearth from Basic Black card stock.  The fall scene was adhered to the back of the window using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen.

    I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark and embossed with Silver embossing powder.  The window and hearth are popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.  The leaves are Tangelo Twist card stock cut using the cute leaves from the Square Pillow Box Thinlits Dies.  They are adhered using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen.


    Isn't that brick wall great?  I started with a piece of Very Vanilla card stock and the Brick Wall Embossing Folder.  Before running it through the Big Shot, I used the Brayer and inked up the embossing folder with some Smoky Slate ink.  I just love the texture that this technique gives!  They look like real gray bricks with off-white mortar.

    Do you want to make this card?  My monthly Stamp Club is open for anyone to attend.  If you would like to join us this Friday (10/9/15) contact me for more information!

    Thanks for stopping by!

    I have a super fun and cute project to share with you today!  I absolutely love making Halloween treat holders and the Square Pillow Box Thinlits Dies makes the perfect box for treats.  You'll find a complete supply list at the end of this post.

    Isn't this adorable?


    Of course, I started by using the Square Pillow Box Thinlits Dies and Basic Black card stock to make the pillow box.  Stampin' Up! has even created a video to show you how easy this is to make.  Here's the video:


    Did you watch the video?  Isn't it amazing how easy that is?  I love having tools that help me make projects that are so easy!

    After assembling the pillow box, I wrapped a 2" piece of Happy Haunting DSP around the center of the box.

    Next to go on was the black Spider Web Dollie.  Oh my gosh these are spectacular!  Already die cut and ready for you to assemble on your projects.  I adhered this with the new Fine-Tip Glue Pen.  This is a must-have for adhering intricate dies and pieces.



    The witch and the pumpkin were stamped on a scrap piece Very Vanilla card stock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored with a Blender Pen and Basic Black, Hello Honey, Rich Razzleberry, Wild Wasabi, Cucumber Crush, Pumpkin Pie and Pacific Point ink.  I used the White uni-ball Signo Gel Pen in the center of Cucumber Crush eyes.  They were then cut out and adhered to the Spider Web Dollie using Stampin' Dimensionals.

    The sentiment was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on a piece of Very Vanilla and punched out using the Washi Label punch.  It, too, is adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals.

    I hope you enjoyed this fun Halloween treat!

    Thanks for stopping by!
