poppystamps Neighborhood Home Card…

Hi everyone! Cute card warning! This NEW poppystamps Neighborhood Home Pop Up Easel Set can be used for so many occasions.  I was thinking Congrats on your new house but ended up using the NEW poppystamps Whittle Scary Guys!  I’m glad they aren’t really scary.  (I’m not a big Halloween person)

I didn’t use the Easel part of the die set this time.  I used the house layer die to die cut a top folding card. I made a 4 ½ in. x 5 ½ in. cardbase and just kept the fold below the top cut line when I ran it through the Big Shot.

I colored the ‘guys’ with Copic Sketch Markers and covered them with glossy accents.  I put the pumpkin behind a window and the ghosts flying out of windows.  I love the curtains so I had to add them. lol

I stamped Happy Halloween on the inside from the Halloween Pumpkin stamp and die set.

I die cut the Boo Poe Script twice from white cardstock and once from Black Glossy cardstock.  Glued them together a little off so you can see the white behind the black.

Straight forward….cutting and gluing and an A2 size card!

I can’t wait to see what everyone else does with this die set.  I think it needs decorated for Christmas!

I still have some card kits for sale…info at the bottom of the post HERE.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today.  I hope you’re enjoying some pretty almost Fall days! I can’t believe it!

Memory Box NEW Fanciful Gilded Frame Two Ways…

Hi everyone!  Second card with the parts I glued up with the NEW Birch Press Design dies.  This time I used a NEW Memory Box die for the background.  Fanciful Gilded Frame.

The first thing I made with the frame though was this place card!  I looked at the die and thought, this could be folded in half and used for table decorations!

I made this in 15 minutes!  That’s a record make for me time wise!

Back to the top card…

I started the wreath by laying out the four large leaves I’d made from the Forest Leaf and Berries Contour Layers dies, top, bottom and both sides.

Then I added four of the Jolly Holly Contour Layers dies.

Then I went back to the Forest set and put in the four small dies, pretty much beside the holly.

Then I added the berries from the Jolly Holly dies.

I only had two of the small branches from the Oval Leaf Brances Contour Layer so I added them on the inside of the wreath top and bottom.

I cut up the Budding Twigs Contour Layers dies and inserted them here and there.

It looks complicated to me but laying it out like this, it went together fast! YAY!

It really turned out pretty if I do say so myself! lol  I never know! lol

I added some Memory Box Pastel Fairy Jewels in the light green color….matchy! lol

It’s an A2 size card and will go through the mail fine with one stamp! YAY!

Back to the pumpkin…

Do you do name cards?  We don’t because…big family!  I took pictures of this design without the banner too because I would more than likely use it more for a decorative piece here and there or maybe to put in front of a dish to tell what it is!

I love this pretty NEW Autumn Pumpkin from Memory Box.  The details are ‘built in’… die cut and it’s ready to go!  I did add a little Spiced Marmalade Distress ink with an ink blending brush but you wouldn’t have to!

I quick cut an extra pumpkin to back the pumpkin. View from the back….

I had this denim looking cardstock still out on the desk so I used it but you could use any Autumn color you like!

Here it is with the banner again.  I used the banner die from a poppystamps foil and cut die set, Modest Banner Greetings.

Both designs are festive and fun!  YAY for holidays!

One more thing….I made some kits for stamp club this month and I have three left.  Everything is die cut/included to make one card!   $15 includes the postage to you in the USA.  This is the card for the kit.   OH, I did use a white glaze pen on the icing, eyes and buttons and some blush on the ginger’s cheeks. That is not included in the kit.

Email or comment if you want one!

Thank you for visiting my blog today!  It’s so hot here this week, we had a couple really nice weeks, now it’s back to real Summer!  I hope to get a lot done in my stamp room where it’s nice and cool!

poppystamps Cat Collage Card, Whittle Creatures Card and Jack O Lantern Frame Card…

Hi everyone!  It’s Black, Orange and Purple season!  But isn’t this black NEW Cat Collage amazing die cut in Memory Box black glossy cardstock!  I love the thickness of it….I use a piece of copy paper folded in half for a shim when I die cut it.

Memory Box NEW Happy Halloween Posh Script die cut directly in the glossy card front panel then an orange die cut inlaid into it.  Be sure to keep the centers of the letters!

An easy alternative to gluing!  I put scor-tape on the back side, flip it over and inlay the die and letter centers. I use scor-tape a lot!

I had a scrap of brayered cardstock that wasn’t good enough to make the keep pile.  It worked perfectly for die cutting the background for the cat and the windows of the NEW poppystamps Twisted Houses die!

A2 size card.

Next up is a cute, cute card using the NEW poppystamps Whittle Creatures die set.

Aren’t they cute?  oh, I already said that! lol  They’ve got personality!

I die cut in white and copic colored.  So easy because the only little pieces are the faces. I put a little piece of scor-tape on the backs, then insert the little pieces with a pick up tool. Works great!

I decided to go postal!  Memory Box Postage Square Layers for the white layer, Stitched Square Layers for the bluish green layer.  I had to cut the black layer with a paper trimmer.

The broom is from the NEW Whittle Witch die.

Then I needed words!  I landed on this poppystamps Marzipan Greetings clear set.  A bunch of fun sentiments in this set.  Love it!

Mini Slimline size card.

My next card is CAS or QAE!

Mini Slimline size card again using the NEW poppystamps Jack O Lantern Frame die.

I die cut it in TE candycorn cardstock.  Colored with copics, the branches brown and the leaves green, coloring right over the orange cardstock.

I die cut the NEW poppystamps Boo Pie Script die in Memory Box black glossy cardstock.  So fun!  A smiling Jack O Lantern just trying to scare you! ha!

I have TWO more Halloween cards to show you tomorrow!  Then….guess what?!  More NEW coming!  Be watching!

Thank you for clicking over and making it through my long post! I kinda got carried away with a three day cardmaking marathon this week. eek! I didn’t mean to scare you! lol

Simon Says Stamp/Memory Box STAMPtember Collaboration!

Welcome to my blog, it’s that time of year! STAMPtember at Simon Says Stamp and a collaboration with Memory Box! I have two cards to share…

The stamp set has beautiful botanical images and sentiments! I hope you will love it too!

Beautiful images to color!  I used Copic Sketch Markers for my cards today. G21, 24, 28, 29 for the greens. R24, 37, 39 for the berries.

There’s a coordinating die for the set also.  I didn’t have it so I used my scan n cut to cut it out.

I always love coloring the reds and greens for Christmas.

I stamped the sentiment with the MISTI and Ranger Archival Black Ink. These stamps stamp beautifully!

Both of my cards are A2 size.

The next card is an Autumn card…

I colored with Copic Sketch Markers again.  I loved coloring these images… very easy open spaces which would work with all coloring mediums. E11, 13, 15, 17, 18, 19 for the flower.  YG91, 93, 95, 97 for the leaves. YR02, YR18, E07 for the berries.

I’ll link up below the other products I used on these two cards.

Thank you so much for stopping by! If you click away, be sure to come back and click through my link again and I’ll get credit at no expense to you!  I appreciate it so much!
