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!

  • Artist of the Month projects with the Bag of Bones suite!


    Our Artist of the Month for September was Candy who chose the Bag of Bones bundle. She did an incredible job on her projects! 

    The suite is no longer available because the Glow in the Dark bats & ghosts have been discontinued. This means you can still get everything else individually. 

    First is a card showing off both the Bag of Bones bundle and the Them Bones designer paper.

    She tore her paper and pieces it on her card base.  Then she stamped the skeleton using Versmark onto Black card stock heat embossing it with White embossing powder. Love the boots and hat on him!  The circles are die-cuts from the new Deckled Circle dies in the 2023 Holiday catalog.  

    Here's the Them Bones designer paper: 

    Next is a neat monochromatic card in Basic Gray and Gray Granite.  She stamped the background with the skeleton bones!

    The tombstone, fence, bats, cat and dog are all die-cuts from the Bag of Bones bundle. The dog and cat are stamped on our Glow in the Dark specialty paper.  You must use Stazon in for this or it may run. She sponged on gray ink onto the tombstone and fence for a 'spooky' look.  

    Next is a cute treat holder made with that same tombstone die-cut.  She simply added a few strips of card stock inside the two die-cuts to create a pouch.  

     

     

     

     

    This card is so fun; she featured a panel from the Them Bones designer paper to show off the dancing skeleton.  Love his suspenders, hat and bow tie!!  

    These skeletons are all heat embossed with White embossing powder onto Black card stock. You can see a few of the glow in the dark bats and ghosts here.  Unfortunately they are sold out now and will not return.  

    Here's a slimline card showing off more of the Them Bones designer paper.  Her colors are Basic Gray, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze. 

    Isn't it cute how the skeleton on the bottom has his dog on a leash?!  

    This next card shows off a neat background effect.  She used the Deckled Circle dies 

    The background is made by sponging on the houndstooth mask (Abundant Beauty decorative masks) then debossed it with the Distressed Tile embossing folder. She then dragged the Blackberry Bliss ink pad across it.  Cool!  

    Didn't she create a fabulous group of projects. She truly showcased this Halloween suite wonderfully!  Fantastic job Candy!!!
