Stampin' Up! Merry Moose with Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder

Here is another cool card using the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder,
with the Merry Moose stamp set & coordinating punch!
 
but with different colors & a slightly different layout!
 This is what the card stock looks like when it is just embossed, 
using the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder.
  And this is how much better you can see it when it has some ink lightly sponged on it.
Cool huh!
 
How did I do this?
  • I embossed the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder onto Shaded Spruce card stock.
  • I just lightly rubbed Shaded Spruce ink over the embossed trees, using my sponge.

 This photo just makes me smile too & I just had to share!
Ainslee loved my Santa card & I didn't think she was going 
to let me have it back for my class.

Stampin' Up! Love of Leaves

 I have a monochromatic fall card to share with you today.
 I used the Love of Leaves Bundle on page 49 in the Holiday Catalog.
 
The stamp set it a disinktive stamp.
This means that it has some natural shadowing of light & dark spots in the stamps.
There is a lot of detail in this leaf.
And I am just in love with the stitching in these Stitched Leaves Dies.
How did I do this leaf?
  1. Stamped the leaf onto Whisper White card stock, using Smoky Slate ink.
  2. Die cut & embossed the leaf with the 2 separate dies, that I could do all at one time.  
  3. Cut out the outside leaf image from the center of a 3x3" Smoky Slate square.
  4. Emboss this square using the Wrapped in Texture Embossing Folder.
  5. Adhere layers.
  6. Pop up leave into the center of the Smoky Slate square, using dimensionals.
stamp set:  'Love of Leaves'
card stock:
  • Basic Black- 4 1/4 x 11"- score at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"- fold for card base.  This is a z fold card.

Stampin' Up! Have a Hoot

 OH my gosh......
Check out this 'Have a Hoot' stamp set!
 
I made this CUTE owl card over a month ago & I forgot to post it!
Even though Halloween was yesterday, I just had to still share this with you.

Isn't it adorable!
I made a cool window using the Best Plaid Builder Dies,
combined with the Stitched Rectangle Dies.
I love how it turned out.
stamp set:  'Have a Hoot'
card stock:
  • Pumpkin Pie- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 4 1/4"- fold in half for card base
  • Basic Black- 5 1/4 x 2 1/2"- emboss using the Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder

  • Early Espresso- 2 3/4 x 4"- for the windows
  • Crumb Cake- 1 x 3 3/4"- stamp words onto
  • Whisper White- 2" strip- die cut spider web

other:  Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine; Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder; Best Plaid Builder Dies; Stitched Rectangle Dies; Peek-a-Hoot Dies (spider web); Layering Circle Dies (1")

How did I do it?
                              1.  Cut the outside of the window frame.                   
    
2.  This is what it looks like.  There is stitching on the outside edge & inside edge.
 3.  Now make the inside of the window.    
 4.  This is what it looks like when it is all cut. 
5.  Using a pencil, lightly draw around the center ride square- as that is where you want to stamp your owl at. 

6.  Try to stamp the owl into this square area.
7.  This is what it looks like when stamped.  And then erase the pencil mark.
 8.  Color the owl/tree.
 9.  Adhere the layers together!
I hope you have a SUPER Sunday!!
Happy Stamping!
