I’ve had many cats over the years and most have been quite entertaining. Each with their own personality. The big fat cat in the box in this stamp set made me chuckle and reminded me of Fletcher, a stray feral kitten we adopted about 8 years ago. He continues to be a bit wild living the dream on an inlet at our dear friends’ the Lynn’s, and for sure will be the first to try to fit in a box half his size. Bwahahah!

Let’s Create

Affix all stamps to Acrylic Blocks.
Fold the Card Base in half using a Bone Folder to sharpen the crease.
Use a Blending Brush to apply Granny Apple Ink to the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper Background and then attach using Stampin’ Seal.
Stamp the Spider, Pumpkin, Bat and Sentiment using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on Basic White Cardstock scrap and stamp the Pumpkin fill stamp in Pumpkin Pie. If preferred, use a Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blend to darken the color on the Pumpkin.
Fussy cut all of them out and set aside.
To create the banner tip:
1. Gently pinch one end of the Black Glitter Banner layer in half to mark the middle. Then unfold.
2. Use Paper Snips to cut a 1/4″ – 1/2″ slit along the center crease you just made. The longer your slit the deeper your banner will be.
3. Cut from the corner to the bottom of the slit, removing a triangle. Repeat from other corner.
Wrap about 6″ of Black and White Gingham Ribbon around the top of the Banner and tie a bow.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach the Spider, Pumpkin and Bat to the Banner – extra adhesive may be needed to adhere to the Glitter Paper.
Use a Chalk Marker to draw a spider web strand from the Ribbon to the Spider.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach the Banner.
Use Stampin’ Seal to attach the Sentiment.
Sprinkle with Silver Metallic Pearls.
Stamp the Inside Layer to your liking and attach with adhesive of your choice.

Sweet and #SimpleStamping

September 23, 2021September 22, 2021 Tina Newberry

#SimpleStamping is a great way to create beautiful cards, using minimal supplies, layers and embellishments. Just stick to a SIP – stamps, ink and paper.

All three cards use one stamp set—the Garden Birdhouses Stamp Set—and yet each card uses a different technique to create a unique style. Explore the stamp sets in your annual catalog and plan three simple cards that you can share with your friends and family. If you post online, use #SimpleStamping in the caption.

Each card features only two ink pads and one or two colors of cardstock.

The Birthday Wishes card is the simplest with just one color of cardstock and a couple of images, all stamped on a single layer.
The Hello card uses more images, layers, and a punch. We even customized the punch shape to fit the sentiment a little better—all it took was a couple of snips with our trusty Paper Snips.
And lastly, the third card has some additional color added in, which is easy to do with a set of Watercolor Pencils.

What will you make today?

Cute Trick or Treat

September 19, 2021September 10, 2021 Tina Newberry

I’m not much into scary things. Actually I’m a total wimp around thrillers making Halloween not my favorite kind of celebration. That’s why I fell in love with the Cute Halloween Suite by Stampin’ Up! It’s all cute little pumpkins and ghosts, black cats and yes even friendly skulls. The sentiments in the stamp set are adorable and the fonts so fun.
