The awesome Spider Web Background is the perfect background for the adorable Bwahaha stamps and dies. The simple color scheme of white/black/yellow is dressed up with glitter Nuvo Crystal Drops, Glossy Accents, and some foam adhesive behind some of the elements.
A background panel was stamped with the Spider Web Background using clear embossing ink and heat embossed with Hero Arts Black Sparkle Embossing Powder. The bit of sparkle in the embossing powder adds a subtle bit of interest to the awesome web background.
The moon from the Bwahaha stamps and dies was stamped with Simon Says Stamp Sunshine Ink, the house, tombstone, cross, eyes, bats, and outline sentiment were stamped with Hero Arts Intense Black Ink. The windows and outline greeting were colored in with yellow Copic Markers and all the images were die cut with the coordinating dies.
The images and greeting were adhered to the web background as shown.

The sky background was inked with Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks before being splattered with Picket Fence Distress Paint.
Images from Happy Haunting (house, moon, bats), Pick of the Patch (pumpkins), Happy Harvest (wagon, pumpkin, corn stalks), and Booyah (ghost) were stamped on smooth white cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink (for the outline or solid bat images) or Doe, Sunflower, and Pizza Crust Ink (for the corn stalks). The images were adhered to the scene as shown. Nuvo Crystal Drops in White Blizzard were used to add sparkle to the windows and moon. A white pen added highlights to some of the images.
A sentiment from the Pick of the Patch stamp set was stamped and embossed with white embossing powder along the bottom edge of the panel and the entire thing was adhered to the front of a side fold card base.
For the inside of the card a background was die cut using a Small Stitched Rectangle die and inked just like the front of the the card. I like to use a smaller rectangle here as it fits the inside of the card better without having to trim anything to make the card close correctly.
Another sentiment from the Pick of the Patch was stamped with black ink inside the card as shown.
Additional images from the Happy Haunting (bats), Pick of the Patch (pumpkins), Happy Harvest (pumpkins, corn stalks), and Booyah (ghosts, speech bubble) were stamped on smooth white cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink (for the outline or solid bat images) or Doe, Sunflower, and Pizza Crust Ink (for the corn stalks), die cut with the coordinating dies, and adhered to the design as shown to finish the card.

Lots of masking, inking, watercolor, and embossing make this one-layer card have lots of depth and dimension!
I stamped the images from the Waffle Flower Sweet Tooth and Hocus Pocus stamp sets on smooth white cardstock using Hero Arts Intense Black Ink, masking each of the images to protect them from the ink, paint, and watercolor. I punched a circle from masking paper and placed it towards the top of the design. A piece of Post It Tape was used to mask off the bottom edge of the card.

Today I'm sharing how a simple border scenes with two of my favorite stamp sets from the release, Hocus Pocus and Cookie Time. These cards feature a skinny inked border across the card where all the action takes place. This is a great way to reduce the area in which to fill on a card, leaving plenty of white space. Greetings are stamped underneath the border scene.
To give each inked background a bit of interest, I first inked the border strip (measuring 2 1/4" x 5 1/2") with two colors of ink and than spritzed them with water from a Distress Sprayer before blotting dry with a paper towel.
Images for both card were stamped on Bristol Smooth Cardstock using Versafine Onyx Black Ink, colored in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, and die cut with the coordinating dies.
Stars from the Hocus Pocus stamp set were stamped over the purple/black border with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with Black Sparkle Embossing Powder. This adds another layer of interest and fun to this sweet scene.
Adding a touch of color to the sentiments on both cards, provides a bit of interest to the white space below the border strip scene.

I am a big fan of the Spellbinders Small Die of the Month and Large Die of the Month Club Kits. If you're looking to invest in an awesome monthly die club, this is it! I love having fun dies show up in my mailbox each month. And this month's dies... Halloween! So excited to share with you what I made using both the Small Die of the Month Club Kit and Large Die of the Month Club Kits. I made two cards and an easy little tea light holder! How much fun are the dies for this month?!!!
If you love both club kits, you can subscribe to the value club kit that includes both the small and large die of the month kits HERE.

Watch the creation of these cards and tea light holders from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
The backgrounds for both cards were stamped with the Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Spider Web background stamp using clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. White pigment ink was applied around the edges of the spider web to distress the design a bit. White opaque ink was watered down and splattered over the background for additional distressing.
The Happy Haunting Card was created with die cuts from the Small Die of the Month Club Kit. The spooky eyes were created by inking smooth white cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat set with Glow In the Dark Embossing Powder. In the light, the eyes merely look like slightly yellowish spots but in the dark.... they glow! Soooooo cool!!!!
The sentiment strip was created by stamping a phrase from the Bwahaha Stamp Set on smooth white cardstock with Versafine Onyx Black Ink, trimming the phrase into a thin strip and adhering under the glittery die cut greetings.
The second card was created using a combination of Small Die of the Month Club Kit and Large Die of the Month Club Kits. I love that you can use the fun squares from the Large Die of the Month Kit to make the lantern or to make other projects. So versatile! The skull brackets from the Small Die of the Month were used to frame up the spooky jack-o-lantern square.
The lantern was assembled using all four panels of the Large Die of the Month Club Kit Dies. The panels were die cut from black cardstock and backed with die cut vellum squares.
A battery operated tea light lights up the lantern perfectly! And look at those spooky eyes from the first card! They're glowing!

Today the Lawn Fawn Design Team is showcasing the new Pick of the Patch Stamp Set and coordinating dies, Pick of the Patch Reveal Wheel Add On, and Spooky Fence Border Die. Today I created a card combining all the things because I kind of love Halloween everything. Fall is my favorite season! If you're not a Halloween person, I love that these pumpkins come blank and can be customized with faces. That way you can use them for fall and Thanksgiving cards, too!

Watch the creation of this interactive reveal wheel pick of the patch card from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
I die cut the front panel of my card from Bristol Smooth Cardstock using the Reveal Wheel Dies and Pick of the Patch Reveal Wheel Add On. I inked the front panel with Fossilized Amber, Abandoned Coral, Blueprint Sketch, and Black Soot Distress Oxide Inks. The background was spritzed with water from a Distress Sprayer and blotted dry with a paper towel. Once dry, greetings and stars from the Pick of the Patch Stamp Set were stamped on the panel with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
The frame from the was die cut from Black Licorice Cardstock and adhered around the Reveal Wheel opening.
The Reveal Wheel was colored in with Copic Markers and then stamped with jack-o-lantern faces from the Pick of the Patch Stamp Set . The Reveal Wheel was assembled (as shown in the video) and adhered to a white top fold card base. "Turn Me" from the Reveal Wheel Sentiments stamp set was stamped on the card base to show the card recipient to turn the wheel to reveal all the adorable jack-o-lantern faces!
Pumpkins and accessories from the Pick of the Patch Stamp Set were stamped on smooth white cardstock using Jet Black Ink and colored in with Copic Markers. The leaves and additional solid images were stamped with Cilantro Ink. All the images were die cut with the coordinating dies and adhered along the bottom edge of the card as shown.
Details were added to the images with a white pen and iridescent mini star confetti were added to the sky to finish the card.
Be sure to come back tomorrow to see the Double Slider Surprise Dies in action! These highly anticipated dies are so cool! See you then!

Welcome! Thank you for sharing part of your day here. Today I'm sharing a Halloween shaker card featuring the Waffle Flower Boo Stamp Set and coordinating dies. I find that my favorite shakers are ones where there is stuff going on inside the shaker, on the acetate window, and on the front of the frame! Even though this is a simple design, this adorable Halloween card is sweetly spooky and the interactive shaker element adds lots of fun!
The inside of the shaker was created by stamping the open moon image from the Starry Night Stamp Set on Bristol Smooth paper using Versamark Ink and heat embossing with white embossing powder. The moon and sky were watercolored and set aside to air dry.
The front of the shaker was created by die cutting white cardstock with a Lacy Layers Die and a Flower Circles Inverted Die. The frames were secured together with adhesive and backed with a piece of acetate stamped with the spider web image from the Boo Stamp Set using white StazOn Ink.
The “boo” greeting was stamped in the lower right corner of the shaker frame using black ink.
The bear witch, ghost, bats, and spider from the Boo Stamp Set were stamped on smooth white cardstock, colored in with Copic Markers, and die cut with the coordinating Boo Dies.
The bats were adhered to the “inside” of the shaker and the rest of the images on the shaker front. Two layers of foam tape were used to frame up the shaker window and silver and clear star confetti and sequins were used to fill the shaker.

Boo! Simon Says Stamp has just released an exclusive Limited Edition Halloween Card Kit called "Creepy Cute". This fantastic kit is perfect for all your Halloween paper crafting. Everything from cards to gift giving with the tapered tote box and zipper pouch bags.
I've created a Halloween card with glow-in-the-dark accents with components from the kit. The moon and Nuvo Crystal Drops all glow in the dark! How cool is that?!!!!
For my card, I stamped and masked images from the Creepy Cute Stamp Set (included in the kit) on smooth white cardstock. The moon from the stamp set was stamped with Versamark Ink and heat embossed with Glow-in-the-Dark Embossing Powder. Distress Oxide Inks in Faded Jeans, Wilted Violet, and Black Soot were applied over the masks and embossed images. The ink was buffed off the embossed moon and the background was spritzed with water from a Distress Sprayer. The masks were removed and the images were colored with Copic Markers.
Greetings from the Creepy Cute Stamp Set were stamped on Versamark Ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
The panel was die cut with the thin Simon Says Stamp Frames Die and discarded. Three black frames were die cut and then background and frames were adhered to a white top fold card base.
Google eyes from the kit were adhered to the spider.

Happy weekend friends! Are you enjoying STAMPtember?!!!! Today I'm back to share another new card with you. This is a Halloween card featuring one of my favorite stamp sets from the release, If The Hat Fits. Seriously, could those sentiments be any cuter?!!!
The edges of the Good Reading Background were inked with Simon Says Stamp White Pigment Ink and stamped over the background. Inking only the edges keeps the center of the panel free from text but adds lovely distressing around the outer edges, perfect for this spooky fun card!
The hats were watercolored with Zig Kuretake Gansai Starry Colors and a water brush pen. I love how the Red Gold from this set looks orange on the black cardstock background!
Pretty Pink Posh Mini Silver Star Confetti were scattered throughout the background and the panel was adhered to a white top fold card base to finish the design.

Every once in awhile I think it's a fun challenge to create a card made entirely from die cuts (with the exception of a greeting) and with all the amazing dies available in Lawn Fawn's collection, I was able to create this spooky Halloween Scene card in a snap!
Spider webs from the Cute Cobwebs Dies were die cut from vellum and adhered to the card as shown using a Xyron Sticker maker adhesive. A sentiment from the How You Bean Candy Corn Add On Stamp Set was stamped with black ink to finish the design.
