Stampin' Up! Festive Post Halloween treat

 Here is a fun little Halloween treat box we made at my Halloween class last weekend!

I love Halloween time & it is fun to make these projects.

 

I used the 'Festive Post' stamp set on page page 63 in the Holiday Mini.

And I combined the Magic in the Night DSP with it!

 This is what it looks like from the side view.

How did I make it?

• 6"x6" card stock
• score at 1 1/2" & 4 1/2"
• turn & score at 2 1/4" & 3 3/4"
• snip to make tabs
• add Tear & Tape
• and fold into box
• assemble
• pinch top together
• and closure of some type
  

 Here is what the box looks like before you fold it up.

 Here is a photo that is closer up for you to see!

So what do you think?

It would be a great little treat box for some special trick-or-treat guests.

Stampin' Up! Arrange a Wreath

Here is a beautiful Christmas wreath!

I used the 'Arrange A Wreath' stamp set & coordinating Wreath Builder Dies.

 

If you checked my blog yesterday, you saw this card made as a fall wreath!

You can CLICK HERE to see that fall wreath! 

I just changed the color of the bow, the card stock strip & added some Red Rhinestones!

WOW HUH!

  

This is what it looks like stamping up as an easel card!

 It is amazing that just adding the red accents with the bow & rhinestones 

really make it a great Christmas card.

stamp set:  'Arrange A Wreath'

card stock:

• Garden Green- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"; 4 x 5 1/4"- for front of card; 4 1/4" strip- die cut leaf wreath; 3 3/4 x 4"
• Real Red- 1/2 x 4 1/2"; 2" strip- stamp bow onto & punch out
• Very Vanilla- 3 1/2 x 3 3/4"- emboss with the Tasteful Textures Embossing Folder; 4 x 5 1/4"- for inside of card; 1 1/2" strip- stamp words onto & die cut out
  
• Sahara Sand- 1 x 5 1/4"- flag both ends with the Banners Pick A Punch; 4 1/4" strip- die cut wreath
  

designer paper:  Toile Tidings DSP- 1 x 4"; 1 x 4"

ink:  Garden Green

other:  Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine; Layering Oval Dies; Tasteful Textures Embossing Folder; Wreath Builder Dies; Banners Pick A Punch; Bow Builder Punch; Wink of Stella; dimensionals; glue dots; Red Rhinestones

 

 Here they are shown together.

 

These are the exact same card except-

• DSP was cut different direction.
• Bow is different color. 
• Card stock thin strip is different color.
• Words are different & stamped in different colors.  
• And Red Rhinestones are added to the Christmas wreath!

 I can honestly say that I love both of these.

But that red bow just really pops!

It is actually almost breath taking in person.

Which one do you like the better?

Leave me a comment!

I would love to hear what you think!

 

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!!
Happy Stamping!

Stampin' Up! Gather Together

 Have you noticed the neat plaid DSP colors & combinations 

that are in the Plaid Tidings DSP?

It can be found in the Mini (Holiday) Catalog on page 57.

This Plaid Tidings DSP is one of the DSP packs that are SALE.

You can CLICK HERE to find out the details about this DSP Sale!

 

Can you see you see a little sparkle in the photo?

I used the Champagne Shimmer Paint, along with some rubbing alcohol 

& sprayed it onto the card to make it sparkle!

Read on to see how I mixed this.......

 

 How did I do this?

• Stampin' Spritzer 
• Fill Spritzer about 3/4 full of Rubbing Alcohol- leaving room so that you can shake & mix the Shimmer Paint, as it settles to the bottom.
• Add Champagne Shimmer Paint- 5-8 drops (approx. 1/8 teaspoon)
• Shake well so it is well mixed.
  
• Hold the Spritzer about 6-8" away from your card & lightly spray!
• LESS is better than more.  You can always go back & spray more onto your card, but you can't take it off.  
  
• Be sure you shake up your Stampin' Spritzer each time before you use it. 

 You know I like cards to be other occasions too.

Even though this is a great fall or even a great Thanksgiving card-

it could be a great guy birthday card, get well, thinking of you or even sympathy card.

Stampin' Up! Trimming the Town Suite

The Stampin' Up! Designer Paper SALE starts today!

CLICK HERE to find out more about this awesome sale! 

October 1-31, 2020

+++++++++++++++

 

CHECK OUT THIS CUTE Wooden Star decor!

OH my gosh.....I so love how this project turned out!

I just love crafting!

And making 3D projects like this one is so much fun!

I used the Trimming the Town DSP to make this star decor!

Yes- the house, wreath & pine trees are all from the Trimming the Town DSP.

I use the 'Coming Home' stamp set to stamp the trees.

And I cut all of these images out using the Home Together Dies!

It was so fast & easy to cut these out.

 

This Trimming the Town DSP is on sale this month!

CLICK HERE TO SEE THE DSP that is on SALE this month! 

 

I embossed 2 pieces of 4 1/4 x 5 1/2" pieces of Whisper White

card stock using the Winter Snow Embossing Folder.

I then used the curved die from the Home Together Dies to get the snow hills.

 

For some added sparkle, I added some Wink of Stella to the snow edges; 

over the pine trees; on the wreath bow & 

in the center of the embossed snowflakes in the snow.

 Don't you think that this wooden star is cool!

Are you wondering how big it is?

It is 12" across from point to point.

 

  How did I do it?

• I traced around the star onto the back side of the snowflake DSP.
• I cut out the star with my scissors.
• I used the Multipurpose Glue & glued the DSP star directly over the top of the wooden star.
• I found a round bowl that was approximately 6" in diameter, traced around it- directly onto my Misty Moonlight card stock.
• I used my scissors & cut out this circle.
• I made the hills of snow with the Home Together Dies.
  
• I cut out the house, wreath & trees with the Home Together Dies.
  
• I cut a white snowflake from the So Many Snowflakes Dies.
• I added several Snowflake Adhesive-Backed Embellishments. 
• I added Wink of Stella to the trees, snow edge, center of embossed snowflakes (in the snow) & the bow on the wreath.
