"Spooktacular" Halloween Banner

You all know that I love Halloween.

So I just couldn't wait to created with this!

 

Check out this adorable pumpkin!!  

 It is a 6x6" piece of DSP that I cut using the 

#165264- Party Banners Dies= $40.00 

I used the

#168219- Spooktacular 6x6 DSP= $13.00 July Online Exclusive

#168181- Black 3/8" Iridescent Ribbon= $8.50 July Online Exclusive 

I love how the back side of each 'face' are stripes!

 

So out of this DSP I made a banner to hang on our fireplace. 

Isn't it just adorable!!

 

My dear friend, Amy Storrie inspired me to create this banner!

How did I do it?

 I used the largest Banner Die & put it like this to die cut it out!

 

This is what it looked like when I cut it- so there is very little waste!

I then punched holes in the corner tops & weaved the ribbon through it.

 

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!

Happy Stamping!

Purple Begonia Belle card

 

WOW! 

Check out this fun z fold card doing the masking technique.

 

Notice how I did not add words to my card front.

I always add words- but I couldn't find a spot/placement for them that I was happy with 

so I decided to omit words from the front & just add them to the inside of my card.

 

Isn't this just a gorgeous flower!

I made this card using the July Product of the Month the-

'Begonia Belle' stamp set.

You can buy it for only $5.00 when you purchase a $75.00 or more order.

This stamp set is while supplies last only! 

You can CLICK HERE for more information about this July Product of the Month! 

The flower/leaves are both 2 step stamps.

I made these using 2 flower stamps & 2 leaf stamps.

Both of these 2 flowers were made using the same stamps.

But I just stamped the order of them differently.

I prefer the flower on the left.

Which one do you like better?

  How did I stamp the flower & leaves?

Check out my chart above that I made.

#1. stamp the flower/leaf image full strength

#2. then ink up the other flower/leaf stamp

#3.  stamp it off onto your grid paper 

#4. now stamp it over the top of the full strength flower/leaf image that you stamped first.

 

Next I made a MASK of the flower using a sticky post-it-note.

As I stamped the flower images onto the post-it-note & then fussy cut out around it using scissors.

I put the post-it-note flower image over the top of the stamped flower on my card front

AND THEN I stamped the leaves.

Once you have both leaves stamped you pull off the post-it-note flower.

It now looks like the leaves are behind the flower.

This is called the masking technique. 

Cool huh! 

Isn't this masking technique easy & fun to do!

I love how detailed the flower/leaves are how they just pop!

 

Here are the supplies & measurements.
