Wow! Check out the Magic in This Night Samplers! Remember Punch Art Wednesday?


If you've followed me for awhile you may remember I used to do a Punch Art Wednesday post almost every week!  I loved creating things with punches.  But I've gotten away from that since my business has grown. But I think you'll find some great punch art in these projects!

My Flowerbug's Team decided to do a Halloween sampler swap for a home decor piece.  We chose to use the Magic in This Night designer paper as our theme & colors.  I had enough pieces to create 2 of them. Look at these!  

Isn't it incredible?  Each so unique and all together create a fabulous home decor piece! 

These 3" squares are adhered to a full 12" sheet of the Magic in This Night designer paper. I'll try to give some details on these squares. 

I created the banners from the Word Wishes dies in White card stock.  I sponged the upper and lower areas with Pretty Peacock & Cajun Craze inks.  I stamped spider webs from the Banner Year stamp set on the White strip. 

A mummy made from sponged White CS strips, a sponged night sky & masked moon with fussy cut bats from the Designer Paper and a punched cat on a Metallic Mesh ribbon background.

An owl from the Have a Hoot bundle, a punched pumpkin with the Playful Alphabet BOO and another owl on a Cobweb textured background with Black Glimmer branches.

Below is an entirely different sampler!   

These sampler squares are adhered to a 12 X 12" sheet of Pretty Peacock card stock. 

From left to right; the first one is made with the Ghoulish Goodies stamp set, second is from the Banner Year and far right are bats fussy cut from the Designer Paper. 

Left is a tag made with the Banner Year stamp set, the cat is on a die-cut from the Sweet Silhouettes dies & a textured brick 'wall' and last on the right is a punched ghost made with the Tulip punch!  The eyes are from the 0's in the Playful Alphabet dies and the greeting from Hallows Night Magic set.

I LOVE seeing what my talented Team members create for our swaps.  If you'd like to join my Team we'd love to have you; whether you like to swap or not!  Click here to purchase the starter kit!  The Get & Go Promotion is a fabulous deal and it ends in just 6 days!!  Read about it here.

  • Check out these Team Swaps featuring Specialty Paper – with measurements!


    Our card swap theme for February was to feature our beautiful specialty papers. Today I’m sharing three of them with you.

    First is a neat fun fold card by Karen. She chose the Lovely & Beautiful specialty DSP and her card shows off both sides wonderfully!

    She also used the Three Banner bundle for her greeting. Love that saying! See this punch bundle here.
    The stitched square die-cut from Stylish Shapes dies hides the inside panel perfectly.

    Measurements are as follows:

    • Card base 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″
    • White 5 1/4″ X 4″, inside is 2 3/4″ square
    • DSP 5″ X 6″ score at 2″ on the 6″ side
    • Calypso Coral square die-cut 2 3/4″

    Next is Kim’s card who also chose to use the Lovely & Beautiful DSP. She heat embossed her greeting on Vellum!

    Notice the brand new embossing folder – it’s called Lazy Daisy and coordinates great with the DSP she chose.

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, Olive layer 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″
    • DSP 4″ X 2 1/4″
    • Fresh Freesia 4″ X 3″
    • Gold strip 4″ X 1/2″

    Next is a neat shaker card made by Joan. She used the Good Luck stamp set.

    Her colors are Shy Shamrock (of course!) and Shaded Spruce with Gold accents.

    Measurements:

    • Shy Shamrock card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, top layer is 3 3/4″ X 5″
    • Shaded Spruce 4″ X 5 1/4″
    • circle window is 2 3/4″
    • White inside 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″

    I’ll share more Team swaps tomorrow.

    ~~~

    Here’s the card I featured on last week’s video. We made it at my February card clubs locally and it was a big hit!

    My colors include Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie & Basic Beige. There are two different pieces of the designer paper that’s called Nature Walk and can be seen here.

    There are lots of pieces and extra elements to this card. It was super fun to put together. That neat striped embossing folder on the extra Lost Lagoon layer is called Lovely Stripes and can be seen here. It’s one of my new favorites.

    This card is kept closed by the narrow ‘flap’ attached to the right side of the card. I added a small triangle to the DSP layer to tuck the corner into. Works great To hold that flap down!

    The flap is adhered ‘underneath’ the DSP layer inside the card. *note the other embossing folder used on the card above. It’s called Stone & Vine and is also a deeply textured folder seen here.

    There are many, many details on this card I want to highlight. Here goes:

    • The die-cut leaves and ‘wood’ piece under the greeting are from the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.
    • The die-cut leaves are cut out from our two-sided card stock. I love that you can choose the light or the dark side which gives more color choices!
    • I added Pecan Pie ink to that wood die-cut with a blending brush.
    • The greeting is from the Three Banner punch bundle seen here.

    I created a free project sheet you can print or download. Click to see it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card; I hope you watch it as I give multiple tips and ways to make your crafting process easier.
