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!

Save

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.

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!

How to create a beautiful scene with the Peaceful Pier set; a free project sheet & video tutorial

June 9, 2025

I shared a video tutorial on how to create this gorgeous scene last week.

Save

I used the Peaceful Pier stamp set, inks and blending brushes.

Save

I first stamped the dock and tree images using Black Memento ink. Then added a few more 'grass' images at the bottom. Next you add ink with Blending Brushes. I used Lost Lagoon for the water, Granny Apple Green for the grass, Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight for the sky.

I did color the dock and trees with Blends markers. I did not need to mask anything. As long as you're adding ink lightly with the Blending Brushes you shouldn't need to.

Save

After I was finished adding color I used the Textured Notes dies to cut my image into 2 pieces. Ad added the frame to a Black CS layer and added the center with Stampin' Dimensionals. I love the dimension this gives to the card scene.

Here is the free project sheet for this card: Click on the following link to download or print it. Download Peaceful Pier scenic card

Below is the video tutorial on how to add ink smoothly with Blending Brushes. I hope you watch it!
