Brewing Up Some Spooky Fun

Posted in Halloween, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Hope you’ve been having a spooktacular time during Halloween week! But, beware, today is our final day to share some crafty Halloween magic with you. No need to be too frightened, though—today’s card is brewing up all kinds of spooky fun! We’ve summoned not one, but four hauntingly amazing products to create this wickedly wonderful design: the Halloween Spells Designer Paper, the Playful Ghosts stamp set, the Halloween Memories stamp set, and the versatile Take a Bow Dies.

Let’s start with the backdrop, which sets the eerie stage for our card. Might bring your thoughts to Beetlejuice!! The Halloween Spells Designer Paper is featured prominently here, not just as the background but also transformed into spooky orbs floating across the card like enchanted bubbles. But wait—what’s that peeking out? Tucked between those orbs is none other than our mischievous little ghost from the Playful Ghosts stamp set! He may look like he’s up to some spooky antics, but he adds just the right amount of playful charm to balance the eerie with a little bit of cute.

And what’s Halloween without a chilling message? The “Spooky Fun” greeting, perfectly fitting for this card, comes from the Halloween Memories stamp set. We’ve stamped it onto more of the Halloween Spells Designer Paper because, let’s be honest, you can never have too much of this enchanting design! The message is framed using the Take a Bow Dies, which, like a spell-casting wand, create that perfect shape to highlight your greeting. Pro tip: Keep these dies handy all year long, because they’re not just for Halloween. They’re perfect for making bows and framing sentiments on cards, scrapbook pages, and more for any occasion.

So, as the witching hour of Halloween week comes to a close, don’t let the crafting fun stop here. These hauntingly versatile products are a great addition to your creative stash all year round! Keep casting those crafty spells and conjuring up creations that will delight and inspire.

Happy haunting, and keep those crafting cauldrons bubbling!

Day 3: Playful Ghosts & Wickedly Good Times!

Posted in Halloween, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Welcome back, crafty friends! It’s Day 3 of our Halloween Week, and today I’m bringing a bit of spooky fun into the mix with the Playful Ghosts stamp set. If you’ve been following along, you know we’re keeping the Halloween vibes going strong with the Halloween Spells Designer Paper, and today’s project is no different! Let’s dive into how this charming ghostly creation came together, step by step.

To start, I used the starry pattern from the Halloween Spells Designer Paper as the backdrop for our spooky scene. Measuring 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″, this piece sets the perfect Halloween night tone when mounted onto a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Pumpkin Pie cardstock. This pairing really makes those stars pop! The card base is Granny Apple Green—a must for our Halloween color palette, adding a playful and eerie contrast to the deeper tones of the card.

Now, for a bit of layering fun! I die-cut two banners using the Take a Bow dies: one in Pumpkin Pie and another in the Gorgeous Grape polka dot pattern from the same designer series paper. These playful colors work together to create a whimsical, spooky feel.

Next, I reached for the Granny Apple Green “bubbly” pattern from the designer paper and stamped the greeting “Wickedly Good Times” in bold black ink. I love how the pop of green brings this sentiment to life! To give it that finishing touch, I die-cut the greeting with the Nested Essentials Dies, giving it a sharp and clean look.

And now for the star of the show—our Playful Ghost! I stamped the adorable little “witch” ghost using Memento ink and brought her to life with markers. You can really have fun with this one by adding bright pops of color to her hat or gown. She’s spooky, but let’s face it, she’s way too cute to scare anyone!

By layering all of these elements together, you’ve got a fun, playful card that perfectly captures the Halloween spirit! Whether you’re sending this card to a friend or adding it to your stash of handmade holiday creations, it’s sure to bring a smile to their face.

All the supplies used in this project are available in my Stampin’ Up! store, so if you’re loving this card as much as I am, be sure to grab your Playful Ghosts stamp set, Halloween Spells Designer Paper, and coordinating dies before they vanish like a ghost in the night! Stay tuned for more Halloween fun coming your way tomorrow—there’s plenty more tricks and treats to come this week! 🎃

Happy stamping, and don’t forget to add these must-have Halloween supplies to your crafting stash! Until tomorrow, keep crafting wickedly good times! ✨👻 OR … You join me LIVE tonight on my Linda’s Stampin’ Escape Facebook page; I’ll be showing you how to make some cute “Trick or Treat” gifts.

Day 2 of Halloween Week: Wickedly Fun Halloween Card!

Posted in Halloween, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Welcome back to Day 2 of Halloween Week! 🎃 Today, we’re conjuring up some wickedly fun vibes with a spooky, yet playful, card that’s perfect for this haunting season. Grab your crafting gear, because this project is not only thrilling but full of creative twists!

We’re starting with a basic black card base, a classic Halloween must! The dark backdrop sets the perfect stage for what’s to come. I added a strip of the Halloween Spells Designer Paper—the one with the mysterious Spells & Potions books. Doesn’t it just feel like we’re about to dive into a witch’s spellbook? 🧙‍♀️ This element adds intrigue and sets the scene for our magical masterpiece.

Now, let’s talk about the Take a Bow Dies—but with a twist! Instead of using them for a bow, I decided to think outside the cauldron. I used the dies to highlight the greeting on this card in a fun and quirky way. Isn’t it great when you can use your dies for more than one thing? It’s like finding a secret spell hidden in your stash!

To make things even more spellbinding, I pulled out the Halloween Memories Stamp Set. Who says it’s just for scrapbooking? I’m all about getting the most from my stamping supplies, and I love sharing creative ways to stretch your tools. That’s why I used the “omitting technique” for the greeting! I covered the part of the words I didn’t need, only inking the ones I wanted to use.

For the greeting, I stamped “Wickedly” on a larger piece from the bow die set and “Fun” on the smallest piece. I trimmed the larger die to fit the card perfectly and then layered the smaller “Fun” underneath for a wickedly fun effect! 🧛‍♀️

But we’re not done yet—this card is bubbling with more magic! ✨ I added the cute little potion bottles from the Halloween Spells Kit. These adorable die-cut stickers are just waiting to be used! I popped them up with dimensionals for some extra depth and drama. And for a final spooky touch, I sprinkled on some iridescent pearls to give the illusion of bubbles rising from the potion—totally magical and mysterious, don’t you think?

This card has it all: spooky fun, creative techniques, and of course, lots of Halloween spirit. Whether you’re crafting for a party or just want to send a frightfully fun greeting, this project is sure to cast a spell on your recipients! 👻

Happy crafting, and stay tuned for more spooky surprises as Halloween Week continues!

Simply Sunday: Wickedly Fun Halloween Card Kick-Off! 🎃🕸️

Posted in Halloween, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Welcome, ghouls and goblins, to the first day of our Halloween Week on the blog! I’m beyond excited to kick things off with a frightfully fun card that will send shivers down your crafting spine. Today, we’re keeping it simple by revisiting some basic techniques that add a magical twist to your projects. Let’s dive into the cauldron and stir up some spooky creativity using the Halloween Spells Designer Paper and Sticker Kit. Join me for a wicked night of crafting delight!

For this hauntingly cute card, we’re showcasing the eerie charm of the Halloween Memories Scrapbooking Kit and its oh-so-versatile two-tone cardstock. One side is the full-strength color, while the flip side is a lighter, spookier version—perfect for creating dimensional depth. I chose to use the “tearing” technique to give this card an extra ghostly touch by revealing the white core of the cardstock. Here’s how it all came together:

Start by tearing a strip off your cardstock – this technique gives an organic, ragged edge, just like a witch’s spellbook. Then, cut it in half and flip one half upside down, so you can see both the deep, dark side and the lighter shadowed side of the cardstock. It creates an eerie effect that’s perfect for Halloween!

Layer your torn pieces onto the polka-dotted sheet from the Halloween Spells Designer Paper. The playful dots add a whimsical balance to the spooky torn edges, creating a haunted contrast. All of these are layered onto a Basic Black base.

To add some fun and depth, I took a scrap piece of black designer paper and attached it to the left side… This little trick gives the card more balance and frames the torn edges perfectly.

No Halloween card is complete without some creepy critters! I grabbed 3 bats from the sticker sheet and once placed, I tucked a dimensional under one of the wings on each bat. This simple technique makes them look like they’re flying right off the card!

The greeting (also from the sticker sheet) was trimmed down, and I popped it up for extra dimension. It’s like a message straight from the ghoul herself!

But wait, there’s more magic… 🧙‍♀️ To give this card some extra sparkle, I added a few Iridescent Foil Gems. Of course, I couldn’t resist taking my Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends and coloring them to match the Halloween theme. It’s a quick and easy way to transform your gems into perfect, pumpkin-colored accents!

This card was an absolute scream to create, and it’s just the beginning of our Halloween Week on the blog. I can’t wait for you to try out these fun techniques with the Halloween Memories Scrapbooking Kit. Stay tuned for more wickedly creative projects that will leave you howling for more!

Don’t miss tomorrow’s post, where we’ll dive even deeper into the Halloween crafting cauldron. Until then, happy haunting and happy crafting! 👻🖤

Brewing Up Halloween Fun with a Playful Ghosts Fun Fold Card

Posted in Fun Folds, Halloween, HANDMADE CARDS, ONLINE EXCLUSIVE PRODUCTS by

Hello, Stampin’ Friends! 👻

Yesterday, I shared a delightful Fun Fold Card and Video featuring the gorgeous Perennial Lavender designer paper. Today, I’m thrilled to show you how you can take that same fun fold layout and brew up some Halloween magic using the Playful Ghosts stamp set from our Online Exclusives.

To start, I switched up the designer paper, using the Thoughtful Journey collection as my background. You might think of this paper for travel-themed projects, but guess what? It works perfectly as a spooky backdrop too! The watercolor design gives just the right eerie touch to set the scene for some Halloween fun.

Next, I stamped my pumpkins, flying ghost, and Dracula ghost, bringing them to life with our vibrant Stampin’ Blends. These markers make it so easy to add depth and dimension to your images. I even used them to color in the moon, which I die cut with the Everyday Details Dies. Creating layers, I die cut a smaller Night of Navy circle for that extra pop of color.

For the sentiment, I went with a simple yet bold “BOO,” stamped directly onto the designer paper and then punched out. This little detail adds just the right amount of Halloween flair without overpowering the rest of the card.

I thought it would be cute to have the Dracula Ghost peeking out from the inside of the card. And to finish up, I embellished with some spooky little orbs, also known as Transparent Adhesive Backed Dots. These subtle, glossy dots add a perfect hint of mystery and shine to your card.

The Playful Ghosts stamp set is such a joy to work with. Whether you’re creating cards, treat bags, or other Halloween projects, this set is full of possibilities. And who knew that the Thoughtful Journey designer paper could be so versatile? Using it as a spooky background showcases the simplicity and creativity that makes crafting so much fun.

I hope this card inspires you to pick up the Playful Ghosts stamp set and create a Halloween masterpiece of your own. The possibilities are endless, and I can’t wait to see what you come up with!

Happy stamping! 🎃

Twelve Weeks of Christmas: Week 2 / Pretty Paper

Posted in Fall / Autumn, Fun Folds, Halloween, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Today I’ll be sharing the cards we made last night during the LIVE, the Video replay, the measurement sheets and two extra cards!! I have an action packed day for you today. Let’s begin with the video with the measurements and cards to follow.

Here is the measurements for our Double View Designer Paper card that highlights your designer paper showing both sides .. Our pretty papers make these easy to assemble cards with the message and feelings you intend.

On today’s cards I used the Merry & Bright and the Walk in the Woods Designer Series papers, with the Poppy Parade and Pretty Peacock cardstocks. The “Christmas is Better Together” greeting comes from the Beary Cute Bundle and the “Happy Holidays” came from the Throughout the Year stamp set. Both greetings were die cut from the Nested Essentials Dies.

For the fun fold I used the same designer paper and cardstock. On the Poppy Parade card I again used the Throughout the Year stamp set and the 2 3/8″ punch for our greeting, and then embellished with the Iridescent Rhinestones. The greeting, the tag & tree dies all come from the Merriest Tree Bundle.

Now let’s take a look at some alternatives for our Quick & Easy Double View card ….

On this card I used the designer paper, greeting and die all from the All About Autumn suite of products and the Elegant Borders Dies. This adds a beautiful touch to the stunning designer paper. This just shows that you can change up the 1 1/4″ section of our cardstock.

Our second card was designed to celebrate Halloween …

This little cutie screams fun! The Elegant Borders dies were also used on our Halloween card to enhance and create a fun border. A strip of designer paper and bakers twine were also used to embellish our card and tie in all the colors. I used the “Them Bones” Designer paper for our last card, along with the die cuts from the “Tricks and Treats” bundle.

And this brings me into more Halloween FUN on my Facebook page …. Be sure to head on over and join in the fun, games and specials!

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Yesterday’s “Stamp with Me” video and card layout featuring the Joy of Christmas Suite/Collection were an absolute delight, weren’t they? It’s always a pleasure to explore new creative avenues and share our crafting joys.

The clean and straightforward card layout demonstrated in the video is not only visually appealing but also easy to recreate. It allows room for creativity and personalization, making it a go-to design for card makers. You don’t need “what I have” … use the measurements with the goodies YOU have.

But today, we’re shifting gears and getting into the Halloween spirit! We’re all set to embark on a spine-tingling crafting adventure with the “Them Bones” Designer Paper and the “Tricks and Treats” bundle. Get ready for some frightful fun!

The “Them Bones” Designer Paper is a spooktacular choice for crafting during the Halloween season. With its hauntingly fun skeletons, bats, and other creepy critters, this paper pack is bound to add an extra dose of Halloween spirit to your creations.

Pair this paper with the “Tricks and Treats” bundle, and you’re in for a wickedly good time. This bundle offers a delightful stamp set and coordinating dies, perfect for crafting spooky cards, treat bags, and more.

I used the Timeworn Typed Embossing Folder to create the look of an old headstone to add an added touch of spookiness… on that note, I created a headstone from the die which highlights our greeting. We’ve got skeletons dancing in the graveyard with our Glow in Dark bats lighting up the way!

Stay tuned for more exciting crafting adventures, and remember, it’s not just about the destination; it’s the joy we find in the journey.

Happy crafting, and have a spine-tingling Halloween season!
