Amazing Bag of Bones Halloween & Pick of the Patch swap cards


We held our monthly Team swap last weekend and I'm excite to share these amazing swap cards with you.

First up is a gorgeous card made by Candace that features the Bag of Bones bundle. 

She added a strip of the new Them Bones designer paper seen here to her Cajun Craze textured layer (Exposed Brick) and created the gorgeous blended background circles for her skeletons. I believe she used Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Starry Sky and blending brushes.  

Her skeletons were heat embossed with White powder on Black cardstock, then die-cut with the Bag of Bones dies.  The bats on the yellow moon are die-cuts from this same bundle. 

This bundle was out of stock for a bit but it's back now! See it here. 

Measurements:

  • Black card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4", layer for DSP is 2" X 5 1/2"
  • Cajun Craze 4" X 5 1/4"
  • Them Bones DSP 1 3/4" X 5 1/4" 
  • Circles from Stylish Shapes – 1 1/4", 1 5/8" and 3"

Check out the inside; she jazzed it up with strips of cardstock and designer paper.  

Sharon made this adorable card with the same bundle and Them Bones designer series paper.  

She added the cool 'Glow in the Dark' bats & ghosts to her middle panel. The skeleton is stamped with Black Stazon ink on Glow in the Dark specialty paper (seen here) as well!  So cool!  

It's a spanner card!  She jazzed up the inside layers too.  

Measurements:

  • Starry Sky card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4".  Then cut up to center score line at 1 1/2" from both sides.  Horizontal strip is 5 1/2" X 1 1/2"
  • Black layers – front sides are 1 3/8" X 4 1/8", center 2 3/8" X 4 1/8" and 2 3/8" X 1 1/8" for greeting
  • Designer paper – front side panels 1 1/4" X 4", back inside 1 3/8" X 4 1/4"
  • Cajun Craze center 2 1/4" X 4"
  • White inside 2 1/2" X 4"

What a fabulous card! 

Lastly today is a sweet card by Candace who featured the Pick of the Patch bundle seen here:

I love her out of the box color choices of Pretty Peacock, Blackberry Bliss and Pumpkin Pie. She used the new Deckled Circle dies for the background of her punched pumpkins.  Her ribbon is new as well – a Vanilla and Black gingham seen here.  

The photo barely shows off the pretty and new Distressed Tile embossing folder.  It's a new favorite for many! 

I'll share more fabulous team swaps tomorrow!  See three other gorgeous swaps here

  • A gorgeous Handcrafted Ornaments card with video & free project sheet!


       Look at this beautiful card made with the Handcrafted Elements dies!

    These dies are seen in our 2023 Holiday catalog or online here.  There are two dies in the set that create that pretty, layered ornament.  

    I chose to use Starry Sky & Orchid Oasis along with the Brushed Gold cards. For the stamped bough image under the banner, I used Wild Wheat ink, stamped off once.  It's surprisingly close to gold! 

    This card is one we made at my October Card Clubs; they could choose their favorite greeting and also the color of bow on the ornament.  

    I used the Distressed Tile 3d embossing folder seen here.

    Yesterday I shared a pretty card featuring two of the same products seen in this card. Click here to see it. The Christmas Classics stamp set and the Brushed Gold cards & envelopes. 

    Look at the stunning golden shine on this card! 

    I shared a second card made with the other half of the Brushed Gold card base in the video here.  I hope you watch it! I will share the details on that card tomorrow.

  • Christmas Classic with the pretty Brushed Gold cards & envelopes; with video & free project sheet


    I shared how to make this pretty card on last week's Live video:

    It features two of my favorite products from the 2023 Holiday catalog; the Christmas Classics bundle and the beautiful Brushed Gold cards & envelopes. 

    I cut the card base in half so I could get two card fronts from it. I paired the gold accents with Shaded Spruce and the beautiful, detailed die-cut from the Christmas Classics dies.  See the bundle here.  I think it's absolutely gorgeous.  It's rare that I like the dies as well as the stamps!
