Onto today's card...
Need a quick, but cute and spooky pumpkin card for Halloween? I've got you covered...take a look.
Just pull out the Pick of the Patch Bundle (includes punch) and the Them Bones Designer Series Paper!
162215 - Them Bones Designer Series Paper
- Trick or treat yourself this Halloween with the Them Bones 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper!
- Use it as the perfect background for your card front or add a subtle yet gorgeously ghoulish accent piece.
- Blend classic Halloween colors with fresh, modern designs.
- Product colors: Basic Black, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Starry Sky
DOstamping Them Bones DSP Tip:
- Make 6 QC cards (or 12 if you use both sheets)!
- Cut pattern paper into 4" strips. Then cut each end of each strip to 5-1/4". Perfect for card making.
- NOTE: for my card, I cut them down a little further to make room for a mat, to 3-7/8" x 5-1/8"
How'd She DO That? QC Them Bones Halloween card
- Stamps/Bundles: Pick of the Patch Bundle (includes punch)
- Paper:
- Basic Gray (11" x 4-1/4" card base)
- Cajun Craze (scraps for pumpkin)
- Basic Black (4" x 5-1/4", scrap for stems)
- Pecan Pie (scraps for stems)
- Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento,
- Other: Stampin' Seal, Glue Dots & Stampin' Dimensionals
DOstamping "Straw" Tip:
- Cut an 8" length of natural ribbon (from the Copper & Natural Ribbon Combo Pack)
- Then cute one side edge off and pull strands away.
- When you have enough strands - pile them together and tie in a knot in the middle (it doesn't have to be perfect)
- I them tied it in a messy bow and adhere to the back of the partial punch with glue dots.
- Substitute Linen Thread for the natural ribbon.
You might be wondering, how I got a smaller punched pumpkin? Easy, with Partial Punching!
DOstamping Partial Punching Tips:
- Cut Pumpkin Pie cardstock with Pick of the Patch Builder punch
- Then re-insert the pumpkin punchout back into the punch. I slid it into through the side, then pulled up the left edge so I could position the right edge into the punch where I wanted it.
- It works for both sizes.
- Note: for my card, I used a full-sized smaller pumpkin and a partial punched smaller pumpkin.
NOTE: I make a boo boo!
- It looks like two smaller pumpkins are layered together.
- That's because I got a ink spot on the first one, but it was already adhered to the card.
- So I just punched another one. The shape was slightly different (that's what you get with partial punching - not exactly the same every time), but that's OK.
- Just a way to cover up my mistake!
What do you think of today's card? Fun, right?!
If you're a Halloween fan, then you'll want to add the Pick of the Patch Bundle (with punch) to your stamping collection, along with the Them Bones Designer Series Paper!
