Stamp It Blog Hop — Halloween & Fall Themes Plus A Give-away
Good morning stampers and paper crafters! Thank you for stopping and Welcome aboard the September Stamp It Blog Hop! Our theme is anything Halloween and Fall related, which means that it won't be long until harvesting the crops starts up…my ultimate favorite time of the year.
If you have been traveling along the Stamp It Group Blog Hop, you may have come here from my dear friends, Oksana Semenska's blog. If this is your very first stop, I want to thank you so much for stopping to visit me. If you like to skip and hop and happen to get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.
With Halloween just around the corner, I thought I would create a fun, whimsical card using a variety of techniques. The sentiments found in the Spooky Fun stamp set have been my 'go to' set these days. I really love the font and cute sayings. Let's take a peek at the card.
Creative Tips:
- Start with a Basic Gray card base measuring 4-1/4" x 11" with a center score across the middle at 5-1/2".
- The Watercolor paper was washed with some Archival Basic Gray ink using the Aqua Painter.
- Cover Very Vanilla cardstock with Halloween Night Washi Tape and die cut the numbers using the Large Numbers Framelits die.
- I love using mixed media with my creations. It adds such a unique texture and character. Add your favorite Stampin' Up! reinker colors to the modeling paste, mix well, then lightly rub across the Stampin' Mask.
Soooo, what do you think? I think it turned out pretty AH-mayzing! :) There is more where that came from….you want to make sure you visit the other Stamp It Group members' blogs to see what Fall or Halloween-themed projects they have to share. Don't forget to come back real soon.
