“Jack” O’Lantern Gift Tag

Rosanne October 30, 2017 October 30, 2017Halloween, Tags

Happy Monday! My project today is a gift tag I made for a Halloween gift for my favorite Trick or Treater…my grandson, Jack.

I pulled out some retired products for this project.

Here’s the details

The stamp set dates back to 2000 and is called Costume Bears. It was perfect for this tag.
I colored the image with the new Stampin’ Blends.
The image is layered on a combination of circles from Layering Circles Framelits and Stitched Shapes Framelits.

I wanted to personalize the tag, so I printed it out on the computer and punched it using the Classic Label Punch.
Lastly, I glued all the layers on a (retired) Spider Web Doilie.

I thought it looked so cute on the gift bag…but not nearly as cute as the little boy who was getting this gift! This little “Jack” O’Lantern turned 4 months old yesterday and is all ready to celebrate his first Halloween!

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have a wonderful week ahead.

Take care,

Rosanne

Trick or Treat Pillow Boxes

With Halloween quickly approaching, I put together a couple of pillow box treats for my favorite Trick or Treaters.

Using the Trim Your Stocking Thinlit dies, I created the pillow boxes with Foil Frenzy Designer Series paper. The pillow box feature in the thinlits can be used for so many different occasions, giving added value to the dies.

Here’s the details

After cutting the pillow box die twice, I used the Layering Ovals Framelits and Window Sheets to create a window in one of them.
Copper Foil Sheets framed the oval window.

The Spooky Cat photopolymer stamp set and coordinating Cat Punch was the perfect bundle to embellish the boxes.
I punched the cat out with retired black glitter paper for a pretty sparkle.
The witches hat is heat embossed with black embossing powder and hand cut.
The banner is heat embossed and cut with Bunch of Banners framelits.

These boxes came together quickly and with three mini snickers bars, which fit perfectly inside, make a sweet Halloween treat. Thanks very much for stopping by today and have a wonderful weekend.

Take care,

Rosanne

A Tic Tac Toe Gatefold – TTTC#021

Rosanne October 26, 2017 October 24, 2017Uncategorized

Comments: 1

Time for another Tic Tac Toe Challenge. Today’s challenge board has a definite feminine feel so I challenged myself to go in a different direction (two challenges in one!). Here’s today’s board…

I chose the third column diagonal: oval, free, die cut for my card.

I just recently started making these gatefold cards and now I’m a little bit hooked on them. They are so easy and I think create a much more interesting card with absolutely no more effort than a regular A2 card since they’re the same size and only scored differently.

Here’s the details

The Very Vanilla thick card stock card base is cut at 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ and scored at 2 1/8″ on each side of the 8 1/2″ side. This leaves two panels on each side to create the “gate”.
I cut two panels measuring 1 7/8″ x 5 1/4″ of Pear Pizzazz card stock and layered that with a pattern from Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper cut 1/8″ smaller on each gate panel.

The Belly Band is Very Vanilla card stock with another layer of Pear Pizzazz card stock that I embossed with the Petal Burst embossing folder to mimic the leaves in the Designer Series Paper.
The oval medallion was created with the Layering Ovals framelits using both the regular ovals and scalloped oval.
The sentiment is from Count My Blessings stamp set and is stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink.

Here’s a peek of the inside where I added another strip of Designer Series Paper and Cherry Cobbler card stock.
The sentiment (non-SU) is stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink.

I coordinated the envelope with the card with more Designer Series Paper on the flap.

With the belly band closure, opening this card is a little like opening a gift!

I hope that you’ll hop over to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge and check out my teammates terrific creations. If you haven’t already, why not pick a few elements from the fun challenge board and create a card. We would love for you to play along and share your project with us!

Thanks very much for stopping by today!

Take care,

Rosanne

A Fun Paper Challenge

Rosanne October 24, 2017 October 24, 2017Uncategorized

Last month I posted a card HERE that I created for a fun challenge my friend and upline, Susan Itell, invited her downline to participate in. Susan sends us various elements and we’re come up with a card. It’s always interesting to see how everyone has such different ideas using the same elements.

Here’s the card I came up with this month…

I forgot to take a picture of my packet but it contained a piece of Soft Suede and Soft Sky card stock along with a piece of Designer Series Paper from the Coffee Break DSP collection and a Delicate White Doilie. The card I created is simple. However, I think that the DSP pattern and doilie really give it life!

Here’s the details

The card base is Whisper White thick card stock.
The DSP is cut at 5 1/2″ x 2 1/2″. I cut strips from the Soft Suede and Soft Sky card stock to create a striped border.
The sentiment, from One Big Meaning stamp set, is stamped in Soft Suede ink and cut with a circle from the Stitched Shapes framelits then layered on a Soft Suede scalloped circle and Soft Sky circle from the Layering Circles framelits.
The Soft Suede circle is popped with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the entire medallion is glued to the doilie which is glued directly to the card.

A few more strips of leftover card stock and DSP gives the inside a coordinated look. I left it blank for a personal note.

Again, just a few leftover pieces and the envelope ties in with the card nicely.

Like I said this card was very simple to make with minimal supplies but I am really pleased with the result. I’ll be anxious to see what my teammates came up with, too. Oh, I did I mention that in the package Susan sent there was a BIG and so delicious homemade Ginger Snap cookie! What a treat!

There’s still a week left to take advantage of Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper Sale. Check out the flyer HERE.
