Witch Way Is the Candy? Send A Smile 4 Kids

This month at Send A Smile 4 Kids we are celebrating Fall/Halloween. To create my card, I started by embossing a panel of black of cardstock using Simon Says Stamp's Tangled Web 3D embossing folder. I adhered that to my A2 white card base. Using Copic marker YG07 Acid Green, I colored a strip of white cardstock and adhered that to the bottom of the card. Using patterned paper from the Recollections Midnight Magic Halloween 6x6 paper pad I added a smaller strip on top of the green paper and a small fish tail banner at the top of the focal panel. I then stamped the images from My Favorite Things Which Way Is The Candy stamp set onto white Copic-friendly cardstock. I colored them using my alcohol markers, cut them out with the coordinating dies, and adhered them to my card panel using thin foam tape. I stamped the sentiment onto white cardstock and cut it down to a thin banner, where I fishtailed the end, and adhered it onto the card closer to the top. I finished off the card by adding some white gel pen detail and googly eyes to the adorable cat. I know one of my granddaughters will love this card! Now, be sure to hop over to the Send A Smile 4 Kids blog and see how everyone else was inspired this month!

 

Happy Halloween

Hello, happy Thursday! I recently won the Picket Fence Studios Triple Trouble stamp and die set and could not resist using it for this challenge. I created this card by stamping the pumpkins, the witch hat, and the sentiment onto white Copic-friendly cardstock, coloring them with alcohol markers, and die cutting the images with the coordinating dies. I cut a frame using Paper Roses stitched stacking rectangle dies and pretty patterned paper from Recollections Midnight Magic Halloween 6x6 paper pad. I popped the frame up using foam tape. I traced along the frame onto the card base, and inked the interior with villenous potion and wilted violet distress inks from Tim Holtz. I sprized the panel with some water for a little distressed interest, and then stamped the bats from the stamp set onto the background. I popped the images and the sentiment up with foam tape and then adhered them to the frame. I mounted the whole thing to my card base. I finished off the card by adding white gel pen to all of the elements. Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I appreciate you! 

 

Witching You

Hello and thank you for visiting my blog! Today's card was created for the latest Color Throwdown card challenge. To create my card I started by cutting down a piece of patterned paper from the Recollections Midnight Magic Halloween 6x6 paper pad and inking around the edges with Tim Holtz black soot distress ink. Once inked I adhered it directly to my A2 card base. I then stamped Esmerelda Girl from Unity Stamp Company onto some white Copic-friendly cardstock and die cut it into a panel using a Gina Marie Designs stitched rectangle die. I colored the image using the colors from the challenge. To finish my card I stamped the sentiment from My Sentiments Exactly's Halloween Innies & Outies stamp set using Versafine onyx black ink and added some lilac sequins from Pretty Pink Posh. I absolutely love this image and hope you like it too!

Hocus Pocus

Today's fun Halloween card was created for both the Paper Players and AAA Cards challenges. To create my card I started by stamping the witch hat and the cat from the Pebbles/American Crafts Midnight Haunting stamp set (another amazing Tuesday Morning $2.99 find) onto the corner of some white Copic-friendly cardstock. I colored the images to match the color challenge. I cut down a small strip of harlequin patterned paper from the Recollections Midnight Magic Halloween 6x6 paper pad and mounted it directly underneath my colored panel. To finish off my card I added the sentiment from the same Pebbles stamp set and then rounded all four corners using my We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper. I hope you like my card, and I thank you for stopping by my blog today!
