Do you see the change I made to the eclipse card?
1. Instead of stamping my background, I just used a piece of designer paper, the one called Spooky Night.
2. I cut the word Boo out of the background piece and another paper from the Spooky night designer paper series.
3. The cat is not stamped, but cut out with the cat punch from one side of the same designer paper pack.
I had a leftover boo from the background paper so.....
I punched out some cards from the designer paper creating my own background, then attached the boo on top.
Tomorrow I will show you the Night in Bethlehem card I made using this great technique.
This cute treat is made with the Seasonal Charms stamp set. There is a reindeet, a snowman and a pumpkin in the set. The stamps can be used as tags on a package, or as a treat holder as seen above. What treat might fit in this bag?
How about an Hershey Kiss?
Well, that was a small treat so how about another treat also.
The treat is made with the 2 by 8 cellophane bags found in the annual catalog. And the topper is the Pumpkin from the Seasonal Chums stamp set. These stamps are great because there is a front and a back on the stamp. The tiny bit of designer paper is from the Spooky Night designer series paper. One side is definitely Halloween and the other side can be for any other occasion.
Love the vines on the back side of the pumpkin.
The third project you will make is a bookmark, because not everything has to be about candy.
I love the cat punch and I don't even own a cat. There are some cat images on the designer paper that can be cut out using this punch. That is great and saves a lot of cutting.
I hope you have enjoyed seeing these stamped items we will be making at our Holiday Catalog Launch Party. If you are in the area be sure and stop by.
Next week I will be posting the cards you can make at my Card Cafe Creations for October.
Doesn't this card make you think of Halloween? I recently went to a stamping event called Vacation Stamping School held in Champaign. A favorite part of the event is swapping card fronts with other demonstrators. This week I am featuring the Halloween cards swaps I received.
Spooky Night designer paper- Love this paper. One side is definitely Halloween, the other can be used on any fall card.
Cat Punch-Did you wonder how hard it might be to cut out this cat? There is a great cat punch that will cut it out for you. And one of the designs on the paper is full of cats that you can punch out.
Spooky Cat stamp set- Cat, witch's hat, owl, poison bottles,and several cute word stamps are included in this set.
Mary Ellen did a great job on this card don't you think?
Tomorrow I will show you another way this set can be used.
