Halloween Greetings - Witching you Were Closer

Hello friends. I have another card to share with you using the Witching You stamp and coordinating outline dies from This Calls for Confetti.

This time, I started by trimming down one of the patterned papers from the Boo! paper pad and added it to black cardstock. This was then added to a white A2 notecard.

I then die cut the oval frame from the Hello Elongated Frame die set and laid it out so I could get the placement of where I wanted my sentiments, both of which are from the Witching You set. After my sentiments were stamped, I added the frame with foam squares. I then stamped my witch out and used the coordinating dies to cut her out. I die cut here two times in total for just a bit of depth.

I finished off the card by adding in the Batty Sequin Confetti.

I hope you have a wonderful day. Thanks for your visit and crafty hugs! ~ Alanna

Witching You a Happy Halloween

Hello friends. I am super excited to share this card with you that features the new Witching You stamps and coordinating outline dies from the September release from This Calls for Confetti.

For my card, I started by taking the mask from the Layered Full Moon stencils from Spellbinders and adhering it with some temporary tape to my white cardstock panel. I then blended on my inks; colors listed at the bottom of this post. I removed the mask and added one of the other stencils included in the set to add yellow ink to the moon area. I purposely went a bit blotchy to add some texture to it.

I put the mask back over top of the moon and splattered on some Frozen Fog Distress Mica Stain. I then stamped my witch from the Witching You set and used the coordinating outline dies to cut her out. I die cut her out two more times to stack the die cuts for dimension.

I took the clouds image from the set and stamped it a couple of times. I stamped the scripty part of the sentiment directly onto the inked background and then stamped and die cut the sub-sentiment and added it below it. I added the witch and that completes this card.

I hope you have a wonderful day. Thanks for your visit and crafty hugs! ~ Alanna

Sending Spooky Hugs

Hi friends. I am back today with another card made using the latest release from This Calls for Confetti. I started by using the amazing BOO-jee Pumpkin Layer Stencils and die set to create the amazing pumpkin. This set has 8 stencils and the coordinating die to die cut the pumpkin out and if you can believe it, is priced at only $22.99 - what a steal! For my card today, I just used the stencils. 

After my stenciling was done, I die cut the panel using my favorite Labels Eight dies from Spellbinders.

I adhered the panel with some foam tape to a light grey A2 notecard. I then added in the ghosts which are from the Ghostly Greetings die set, also part of the new release. I added on a sentiment from the Halloween Icons Betterpress and die set from Spellbinders and finished off the card with some gems.

I absolutely love how this came out and have two more cards that I will be sharing later this week using the amazing BOO-jee Pumpkin Layer Stencils and die set.

I hope you have a wonderful day. Thanks for your visit and crafty hugs! ~ Alanna

Shine Bright

 Hi friends. I'm sharing another set of cards that were published on the Topflight Stamps blog earlier this month.  I had this Shining Star set, from Visible Image in my stash and decided it was the perfect time for it to see ink.

I started by stamping the large star image with alcohol marker friendly ink using my Misti stamping tool. I then colored it with my OLO markers. I then restamped the image with Versafine Claire Nocturne ink to really deepen and darken the stamped outline. I love doing this when I am coloring. As long as you have some sort of stamping tool, you are good to go.

After my images were colored, I stamped one of the sentiments from the set with the same Versafine Claire Nocturne ink in the bottom left corner. I trimmed my panels down and added them with foam tape to a coordinating A2 card base from some deep yellow card stock. I finished off the cards by adding in some sequin confetti.

Celebrate! Create your own Inky Background

Hi friends. I had this card on the Topflight Stamps blog earlier this month and thought I would share it here as well.

For my card, I am using the Smitten with Stars stencil from AALL & Create. This is a very large stencil coming. You could line up two A2 notecards and just stencil across if you chose to. So, if you are in need of a larger stencil for some of your projects, this is great one.

I started by blending on Versafine Clair Warm Breeze ink over an A2 sized panel of white card stock. I then took some of the Versafine Clair Medieval Blue ink and blended on just towards the tops of the larger stars. 

I then took one of the images from the Dot Dash Grid stamp set from AALL & Create and stamped portions of it a few times over my background using Versafine Clair Monarch ink. After that stamping was done, I brought out one of my favorite stamp sets, the Birthday Wishes set from Visible Image and stamped two of the sentiments with the Versafine Clair Nocturne ink. 

I trimmed this panel down and matted it onto a piece of blue cardstock that coordinated with my ink colors. This was then added to a white A2 notecard and that completes this card.
