Bewitched

Hi all.  Today, I have a card for the The Cutting Cafe Design Team.  Usually, I do a cut (svg) file, but today, I am showcasing some digi files.  We were able to choose from the following sets:

Halloween Trio - Printable Stamp Set

A Bunch of Monsters - Printable Stamp Set

Crazy Candy Corn - Printable Set

I chose the Trio Set and added a couple of other Halloween digis from other Cutting Cafe Files.

I just learned a new fold and decided to try using it on this card.  I used double sided, printed card stock for the base.  I printed the images that I wanted to use.  The trio is on the inside of the card but I used some other trio and double images and fussy cut them out.  I colored all of the images with Copic and Spectrum Noir markers.  I used a Clear Star glitter pen on some of the elements.  The saying is also from the trio set.  I glued the images that I had cut out onto white card stock so they would stand out against the dark backgrounds and distressed the edges in orange ink.  I think it turned out really cute.  What do you think?

Candy Corn Box

Well, it is a bit early for Halloween, but I thought that I would get a head start and if I am lucky, I might be able to sell some of my things.  I have added a few cards to my Etsy Store.  I will be adding some more soon.  This week, we were able to use any file from The Cutting Cafe because we have some new people on the design team as well as a few who have left.  (I have been asked to do another term.)  After December, I have to leave the team as we are only allowed to serve 2 consecutive terms in a row. Anyway, I decided to make this adorable candy corn box.  I cut out the pieces on my Silhouette Portrait  using different cards stocks.  I embossed the white top and the bottom is a glittery yellow.  I used Viva Decor ice white pearl pen and added some pearl dots for texture.  The tag was made on my computer. I punched it out and added a glittery black bow to make it stand out. I finished it off with some orange and white ribbon.  Hopefully you will be able to see the glittery areas.

Now I just need to figure out what to put in it and who to give it to!

Hope you enjoy this fun project!

Imagine That Scarecrow Card

I made this adorable card for this week's Imagine That Design Team project.  I really had fun with this card because I used the png files that had all of the images separate and I just added them where I wanted them to be.  I was able to change sizes of some of the images in order to make my own scene.  I also added the sentiment to the scene.   After that, I printed it out and colored with Copic and Spectrum Noir markers.  I decided that I wanted to make it a window card so I mounted the scarecrow scene inside.  I cut the oval and the frame with a dye cut and glued the frame over the oval cut-out.  For the front of the card, I stamped and embossed the leaves with clear embossing powder.  I added the leaves that were cut out on my Silouhette Portrait and embossed them.  I thought it added a little color where it was needed.

This is the set that I used.
