SEASONS OF FUN HALLOWEEN CARD!

 Hi, Friends,

I am presently sitting at a table at a Scrapbook Retreat at Bell Buckle, TN, about ready to pack up and head home.  Here is a picture of our group:

For those of you who have attended retreats, we have eaten ALL weekend, stayed up too late, and had great fun just hanging out with each other.  Our “snack” table looked like this:

This didn’t include two Bread Basket cakes (one strawberry, one caramel) and one Coconut Cake!  

Anyway, there was a card on the card buffet at the Salvation Army Angel Tree Crop that I wanted to share before Halloween, so here it is:

 The Seasons of Fun stamp set is a hostess set that is offered in the July - December 2021 Mini Catalog.  It is such a cute set, but I almost missed seeing it in the catalog.

RECIPE:

     STAMPS:  Seasons of Fun

     CARDSTOCK:

          Crumb Cake:  5-1/2 x 8-1/2, scored at 4-1/4

          Pumpkin Pie:  4 x 5-1/4

          Regals DSP (R):  1-1/2 x 3-7/8

               SCRAPS:  Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, Basic White

               INSIDE:  

                    Pumpkin Pie:  3-3/4 x 5

                    Basic White:  3-5/8 x 4-7/8

     ACCESSORIES:  Squares Layering Dies (R), SU Die Cut Machine, Stitched Shapes Dies (R), Rhinestones, Dimensionals

These stamps are just the cutest ever!  I love the black gingham ribbon, too!  Think outside the box and you can use this ribbon on lots of projects, NOT just Halloween!

HOW I MADE IT:

1.  Use Memento Black ink to stamp signature stamp on back of card base.

2.  Stamp three leaves on lower right corner of inside panel using Memento Black ink.  Color using markers.

3.  Adhere inside panels together; adhere to inside of card base.

4.  Adhere patterned paper to Pumpkin Pie cardstock.  Tie ribbon at seam of patterned paper.  Adhere panel to front of card base.

5.  Use Memento Black ink to stamp focal image on scrap of Basic White cardstock.  Cut out using die and SU Die Cut machine.  Color using markers.

6.  Adhere stamped image to Pumpkin Pie cardstock scalloped die cut, then adhere to Basic Black square.

7.  Attach stamped image to to front of card base using dimensionals.

8.  Add rhinestones (see sample for placement).

The inside of the card is simple, just a few leaves colored with different colored markers.

If you are a Braves fan, I hope you get to watch some awesome World Series games this week!  We watched the game last night and cheered loudly with all the other fans at the end!  

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed my project!

Happy stamping,

Linda
