Ready for some fabulous ‘Cute Halloween’ projects?! Check out the video tutorial


Look at this adorable Halloween card I made on last week's FB Live.  Follow me on Facebook here so you don't miss my weekly videos!  There's on tonight at 7:30 pm CT and every Tuesday at 11 am CT. 

Product used:

  •  the ghosts, pumpkin and striped trim are from the Cute Halloween designer paper in the Holiday catalog.  See it here. 
  • I punched one of the ghosts and the pumpkin with the Halloween punch. It's in a bundle with the Cutest Halloween set seen here or on page 51, which is where the greeting is from. *Sadly the Halloween punch is now on back-order until November!
  • the wreath & bats are die-cut with the Seasonal Swirl dies seen here & Black Glimmer paper in the annual catalog; seen here
  • the ombre background is actually Fresh Freesia CS, with Misty Moonlight & Night of Navy added with our Blending Brushes *watch the video below
  • Cute Stars Adhesive-backed sequins are also added to the wreath

Check out the ghostly treat box in the photo above.  It's so simple to make with the Pretty Pillow box dies!

The stitched tag is also in the Pretty Pillow Box dies.  Look how it latches – the scalloped front slips in behind the tag in front.  I love that I don't need a special way to keep it closed; the tag does it for me! 

Check out the other version I made with the fun skeletons on the right?  I fussy cut them from the Cute Halloween paper. 

Measurements:

  • White 4 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”, cut 1 ¾” from the right
  • Black 5 ½” X 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”,
  • White & Fresh Freesia 3 ¾” X 4 ¾”, Black ½” X 4” strip for greeting
  • Cute Halloween DSP ½” strips

I haven't shared this for awhile so here it is; my favorite cutting template especially for inside a card.  Get 5 pieces from one 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of card stock. If you're making multiples this can save you a lot! 

Below is the video.  I make another project using Sparkle of the Season before this one. Fast forward to about 22 minutes in to see this neat Halloween card.

  • This cool ‘Fun Fold’ makes the most of your card stock & designer paper!!


    This easy fun fold is so smart!  It truly makes the most of both your card stock and your designer paper.  

    How?  Well the card base starts out at 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2".  Then you cut off one end at the 3 1/4" mark.  This piece is then flipped and is the front panel.  So smart! 

    The greeting die-cut is from the Nested Essentials dies seen here. I love the shapes! 

    The Delightfully Eclectic designer paper seen here is also used well on this card layout.  This versatile designer paper is on sale now and is the best deal on DSP we have!  You get 48 12" X 12" sheets for $25.50 in June.

    The navy layer is 4" X 3"; perfect size to max out your 12" designer paper if making more than one.  And the vertical 'yellow' piece is 2" X 4" which is a wonderful size for either 12" DSP or 6" DSP. 

    I made over 20 of these for a swap so it helped me save on designer paper.   

    I used the Kindest Expressions stamp set seen here for the greeting.  The pretty flowers – different on each card – are from the Paper Florist dies seen here. 

    Here's the link to see my recent video featuring this card.  I also make two other cards made with the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper.

  • Brewed for You; a fabulous guys ‘fun fold’ card with video tutorial


    We made this special fun fold card for the dad's or men in our lives at a recent card club.  It features the Brewed for You stamp set and Brewed dies.  

    I LOVE the colors – Black, Smoky Slate, White and Crushed Curry.  This fun fold looks complicated but it's super easy!  

    Start out with a gatefold card, then you need a Black cardstock square and die-cut a square from the center.  Adhere the frame on one side and the solid square to the other. 

    It's fun to play with too.  We stamped the bottle, glass and spatter using Versamark ink onto the front of the card base.  Then added two strips of textured Crushed Curry card stock to each side. 

     

    See the stamp set here and the Brewed dies here. 

    The beer glass and mug were stamped in Smoky Slate and Crushed Curry.  Measurements and video can be seen below.

    Measurements:
    • Smoky Slate card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4" from each end plus a strip for greeting
    • Crushed Curry 2 pieces 2 3/4" X 1 1/2"
    • Black 3 3/4" square; die-cut a square from the center; use both frame and inside square
    • White inside 4 3/4" X 3 1/2", scraps for beer & foam

    Click here or on the photo below to see this card made in my video.  It's one of three I share.

  • Incredible Sweet Citrus projects; part 2


    Continuing on from yesterday's post seen here, I'm sharing more of Karen's 'Artist of the Month' projects. She chose the Sweet Citrus stamp set & dies.

    Each month one of my Flowerbug's team members takes a turn (voluntarily of course!) to feature a bundle, sharing their projects.  They keep the bundle (free!) and I get the projects to share with all of you.  

    Her first card features limes, using Parakeet Party.  I believe her 'rind' is Garden Green.  

    She also made these two adorable candy boxes.  

    The one below is filled with lemon candies; so perfect for this stamp set.  

    This second box is for Orange Tic Tacs.  It fits in there so perfectly! 

    I know she found the pattern online but I don't have the link. It opens from the front and is tied closed with twine. 

    And lastly is a super cute fun fold featuring coconuts! Yes; you can create coconuts with the Sweet Citrus stamps!

    She stamped the coconuts in brown ink on White card stock and colored in the centers with Gray Granite ink using a water painter, leaving the white coconut ring.

    She used the Delicate Desert DSP from the Spring catalog; it has retired now however.  

    It's a bit too much to share measurements here so I'll plan to create a card like this on a future video.  

    You can see the Sweet Citrus stamp set here.  And the Sweet Citrus Hybrid embossing folder and dies here.  

    Here is a photo of all of her gorgeous cards:
