Check out these CUTE Potions & Spells Halloween card swaps

Last weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team swap – our theme was Fall or Halloween cards. 

Today's first card is made by Ginny who chose the Potions & Spells bundle. 

Save

Such an adorable card!  She cased it from Julie Gilson.  I love the colors of Granny Apple Green, Black, gray, Peach Pie with bits of purple & yellow.  

Check out this cute bundle here.

The White background is stamped with a few small images, then ink is added lightly with a Blending Brush before it's textured.  The cat, broom and stack of books are adorable!

Next is a fun card made by Robin who used this same bundle. She also added a ghost from the Playful Ghosts stamp set.

She's a master at sponging her backgrounds. I sure love her color scheme of purple, green & black.  

Next is Candy's striking card also using the Potions & Spells bundle. 

Save

She used the bubbles image to make her own background. The oozing slime and bubble die-cuts are the Old Olive glimmer paper.  I love the White Deckled Circle die-cut behind the cauldron. It looks like a moon. 

Here's the inside of her cute book-binding card:

• Gather Together Tag Punch Fun Fold

  October 16, 2020

  Check out this fun fold card Deloris made for a recent Team swap.  Our theme was fun folds from the 2020 Holiday catalog. 

  She used the Gather Together bundle seen here and the Scalloped Tag Topper punch seen here.

  Her colors are Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso & Sahara Sand.  The tag punch is pushed in to create the design on both edges and then the sides are trimmed with a paper trimmer.  A really lovely design!  

  I'll be sharing more of my Team Fun-fold card swaps next week!

  Look at this super cute Fun Fold card featuring the Gift Wrapped bundle seen here! 

  Save

  I LOVE the bright, eye-catching colors she choose; Granny Apple Green & Poppy Parade.  Can you see that she used both the Light & Dark colors in these Blends markers?  

  She also used the Wink of Stella on the punched bow and 'ribbon' on the front. See that cute baby tag?  That's part of the punch too! 

  Can you see how the front flap catches on the greeting on the left?  Love this!
