Pretty Pumpkins with Be Dazzling specialty paper

After seeing other projects with the Pretty Pumpkin bundle I had to get it.  I love the images and the font in the greetings. 

Save

I stamped the large pumpkin image in Pumpkin Pie ink and colored them and the leaves with Blends markers using both Pumpkin Pie & Olive markers plus light Crumb Cake for the stem & light Cajun Craze for the darkest areas on the pumpkins.

I was playing around with the Be Dazzling specialty paper and decided to try to color it.  I had a spritzer filled with rubbing alcohol & either Pumpkin Pie or Cajun Craze ink refill.  So I spritzed it on to a piece of the glittery paper.  It worked beautifully!  I did have to let it sit for a few minutes to set well.  Then I rubbed it with tissue to get any excess off before I die-cut the pretty filigree pumpkin with it.  

I also spritzed my White twine to color it as well.

• Cool Black Magic technique with a free project sheet and video tutorial!

  August 4, 2025

  ---

  Oh my gosh, this Black Magic technique is super neat!  Look at these colorful cards!

  Save

  What's the Black Magic technique?  It's where you heat emboss on Black card stock with White embossing powder and color onto the embossing with Blends markers.  So easy and a great way to add color to your embossed image. The Layered Thoughts stamp set is perfect for this fun technique. See it here. 

  Save

  I also used the Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper seen here and the coordinating Cheers & Sips stamp set for the inside images.

• An easy card with Prairie Grass & Thoughtful Journey

  July 30, 2025

  ---

  Here’s the last card I shared on last week’s video – all three featured the beautiful Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.  Unfortunately it is now out of stock but you can add your email to be informed when it’s available. 

  Save

  I stamped it onto a piece of Thoughtful Journey designer series paper. Then I cut it into 3/4″ strips before adhering it onto the Black CS layer and then the White card base. 

  You might wonder where the layered greeting shape is from. I used the To the Point punch with a 3/4″ strip of DSP like this: 

  Save

  Tip: Insert your paper through the back of the punch like you see above.  Notice it’s not through the side; but inserted into the back area.  Once you do both ends and you’re happy with the length of it, adhere it to a Black strip 1″ wide and punch both ends to layer evenly.

  Here’s the free project sheet for this card. Print or download it by clicking on this link: Download Prairie Grass scene

  And here’s the video below where I share how to create this gorgeous card and two other cards featuring this amazing Prairie Grass stamp set.
