September Club Project...Two in One!

I share the card we made for club in THIS POST.  Thought you would want to see the project we made at club this month also, right?!  😁  Well...this month's project was a two in one!  I wanted to show them how they could take the same elements and make a few different things with it...so we made a little treat box AND a fun tag to add to some packaging!  Look how fun and cute...

 

Colors:  Whisper White, Highland Heather, Lemon Lime Twist, Gray Granite, Basic Black

Cardstock/Papers:  Shimmery White, Gray Granite, Basic Black, Vellum Cardstock

Stamps: Cauldron Bubble, Waterfront (Splatter image)

Tools: Big Shot, Takeout Thinlits, Cauldron Framelits, 1" Circle Punch, Starburst Punch, Heat Tool

Accessories: Granny Apple Green 1/2" Textured Ribbon Weave, Whisper White embossing powder, Silver Thread

 

Colors:  Whisper White, Highland Heather, Lemon Lime Twist, Gray Granite, Basic Black

Cardstock/Papers:  Shimmery White, Gray Granite, Basic Black, Vellum Cardstock, Toil & Trouble 12"x12" Designer Series Paper

That box is made with the DARLING Takeout Thinlits.  This box is perfection.  It's pretty tiny...which is perfect for little trick or treaters, classmates, etc.  And it is SOOO cute!!! 

Just a few pics of some of the details...

 

This Granny Apple Green ribbon is a complete favorite.  Such a fun bright color.  Swoon! 😍  And that cute ghost.  And that splatter image (from the Waterfront stamp set).  I just can't get enough!!!

On to the tag...

You could plop this guy on anything to jazz it up.  That witch hat...LOVE IT!  It's colored with Blends...which are my FAVORITE!  SOOOO easy to use and so beautiful!! 

 

See how cute it is just on a cello bag with some candy in it?!  Teacher gifts, neighbors, friends, etc.  Such a fun Halloween surprise!!!

September Club Card...Spooky Bat Fun...

Hello!!!  Sorry it's been a bit since I've posted.  I was in the middle of event planning and things going a little busy.  😀  If you have followed me for awhile, you have probably seen me post about my Suite Stampin' Success events that I put on with a friend.  They are a demonstrator get together/training and we sure have a blast.  I will be posting about this latest one soon, but before I do...I want to share my club projects that we did this month!  Today I want to share the fun card we made using my fave Halloween products...the Spooky Sweets bundle!!!  It. Is. So. Good!!!  Check out this fun card...

Colors:  Whisper White, Gorgeous Grape, Basic Black, Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist

Cardstock/Papers:  Shimmery White, Gorgeous Grape, Gray Granite, Daffodil Delight, Sparkle Glimmer Paper

Stamps: Spooky Sweets

Tools: Big Shot, Swirls & Curls Embossing Folder, Frosted Floral Framelits (label), Spooky Bats Punch

Accessories: Basic Black twine, Lemon Lime Twist Ombre Ribbon, Silver Mini Sequin Trim

In club I try to work ahead of the holidays, so they can be ready when the holidays come.  However...it's still 85ish degrees where I live, so not so much in the "fall" spirit, if you will.  That...and I LOVE summer and NEVER want it to leave.  Haha.  So this is kind of a bright Halloween card...which I'm a big fan of.  😃

Some of the details...

The moon is punched from the Sparkle Glimmer Paper.  Swoon!  😍  And those bats are stamped onto Shimmery White cardstock...my total fave!!!

I love adding ribbons and trims for texture, and so loving this fun little swirl behind the focal point.

I hope you enjoy this card!  Let me know if you have any questions!  Would love to help you out!  Or answer any papercrafting/Stampin' Up!/etc. questions that you may have!!!

Thank you so much for visiting!!!

Wishing With Blended Seasons...

I'm pretty much all heart-eyed over this card I made with the "Color Your Season" exclusive products.  (Only available through the end of August...or while supplies last if they run out before then!)  So had to share it with  you...

Colors:  Gray Granite, Flirty Flamingo, Lemon Lime Twist, Gorgeous Grape

Cardstock/Papers:  Gray Granite, Basic Black, Watercolor Paper, Vellum Cardstock

Stamps: Blended Seasons

Tools: Big Shot, Stitched Seasons Framelits, Tailored Tag Punch, Heat Tool

Accessories: Gorgeous Grape 1/4" Mini Striped Ribbon, Whisper White Embossing Powder

How fun is this one?!  I actually cut the label out of the card front, and stamped and adhere the flowers to the inside of the card (using dimensionals), so you could see it through the label window on the front of the card.

Just a fun detail that adds some interest.

I love that greeting and the layered elements to it.  That ribbon is SOOOOO 😍😍😍!!

The flower image is colored with the Watercolor Pencils that are available in this exclusive special this month.  And I stamped it onto Watercolor Paper and then colored over the flowers with Wink of Stella glimmer brush.  Just look at the fun shimmer...

I sure hope you enjoyed this card!  Please let me know if you have any questions!!!

Thanks for visiting!!!
