On a Snowy Log

I wanted to try stamping the Woodgrain stamp in white to make it look like a snow covered log. This is the result. Card base is Real Red textured card stock, with a top fold. I scalloped the bottom edge using the Scallop Edge Punch, and layered some whisper white on the inside both to make it easy to write and to make the scallop edge stand out.

The DSP on the front of the card is from Christmas Cocoa. At the bottom of the card, I stamped Woodgrain in Versamark on Chocolate chip card stock and heat embossed it using White Embossing Powder. Where the DSP and card stock meet, I tied some 5/8″ Real Red Polka Dot ribbon.

The snowmen are from Snow Buddies stamp set, stamped in Chocolate chip ink on Whisper White. I colored them in using my Markers, trimmed them out, and adhered them to the base using dimensionals.

More Halloween Cards

This card was made using Soft Suede card stock for the base, layered with Dusty Durango and Autumn Vines DSP in a More Mustard patterned paper. The image is Autumn Harvest stamp set, stamped in Brown Stazon ink on Very Vanilla card stock. I sponged around the edges of the Vanilla using Pumpkin Pie ink. The sentiment is from Chit Chat Rub Ons. I layered the Vanilla onto a piece of Dusty Durango that I scalloped using the Scallop Edge Punch.

Underneath the pumpkin, I used my Cropadile to punch holes for my Fire Circle Rhinestone Brads. The entire layer is then adhered to the base using dimensionals.

The Boo card was really very simple. I used Basic Black for the base, layered with Pumpkin Pie card stock. Along the bottom edge of the Pumpkin pie, I used a Swiss Cheese Punch. It’s hard to see but I sponged Pumpkin Pie ink along the bottom edge.

Next, I layered a rectangle of retired Halloween DSP with Whisper White card stock and adhered it to the base. The “Boo” letters were stamped using Defining Alphabet in Pumpkin Pie ink on Whisper White card stock. I punched out the letters using a 7/8″ Circle Punch, layered on Pumpkin Pie circles which I punched using the 1 3/8″ Circle Punch. The circles are then adhered using dimensionals.

Happy Halloween–Glittery Spider Webs

This card turned out so cute! And I’m normally not one to make Halloween cards, but I figured I’d give it a try this year. Base is Basic Black layered with Going Gray. The black spider web DSP is a retired Halloween DSP. I traced over the corner web with my MS Glue pen and sprinkled on Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.

The spider was made from a 1 3/8″ Circle Punch of Basic Black card stock, with googly eyes and red circle nose. The legs are pieces of Silver Elastic Cord, that I pinched to make them bend slightly. The string he’s hanging from is also Elastic Cord. The entire spider is attached using dimensionals.

To finish off the card, I added a rub on from Chit Chat Rub Ons onto Basic Gray card stock punched with the Modern Label Punch, attached with dimensionals.

Version 2 of the Spider Web Glitter card uses Supernova Fine Glitter in Orange. Pretty much everything is the same as the card above.
