Pink Pumpkins for Halloween! Cards by Jennifer Jackson

Pretty in Pink for Halloween! 

Hello! Jen here today and I'm sharing two fun Halloween cards featuring kitties in pumpkin costumes paired with our Halloween Party Paper! 

These cards use the following products:

Cat Builder Die Set

Halloween Accessories Die Set

Halloween Greetings Die Set

Halloween Party Paper Pack

Fractured Card Layout Die 

Arched Frames Die Set

I just love how cute the pops of pink are on these halloween cards. The Halloween Party paper pack is one of my favorites and I couldn't resist pairing it with our new Cat Builder and Halloween Accessories!

For my first card I started out by die cutting the pieces to make a grey kitty using our Cat Builder Die Set. I knew I was going to pair the die cut with the Halloween Party Paper so I cut out a pink jack-o-lantern costume (using our Halloween Accessories die set) to match the paper! I just love how cute that pink pumpkin costume looks!

Next I used the Fractured Card Layout Die to create the fun background. I used the die set with four different patterned papers from the Halloween Party paper pack. The hardest part is choosing which paper pattern to use because they're all so cute! I assembled all the pieces together and layered them over a light pink card base. The finishing touch is the sentiment "trick or treat" from the Halloween Greetings Die Set.

For my second card I created a sitting cat using the Cat Builder Die Set. I again used the costume pieces from the Halloween Accessories die set but this time I made the pumpkin costume orange. To add the pink I made cute little pink pumpkin treat bucket for the cat to hold and I also added a pink stitched pumpkin sitting next to the cat. 

I used black for the card base and then layered a piece of paper from the Halloween Party Paper Pack that had bats on a pink background. This piece was cut out using the large stitched rectangle die from the Arched Frames Die Set. I also layered grey and a white arches on top that were cut out with that same die set. For the sentiment on this card I used the big Happy Halloween from the Halloween Greetings Die Set. 

I hope you enjoyed seeing these cards today! I know Halloween is almost here but there is a SALE in our shop this week so you could you could always pick up these goodies and get a start on Halloween cards for next year!

Congratulations with Cherry Blossoms Card by Samantha Mann

Wedding Wishes Card!
Today we are sharing this pretty congratulations card by Samantha!

This card features:

Arched Frames Die Set

Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set
Cherry Blossoms Die Set
Banner Trio Die Set
Heartfelt Roses Stamp Set
Trailing Leaves Stencil

Today I'm sharing a wedding card I made for a good friend who has a wedding coming up and asked me for a card to share! 
I started by stamping the images from the Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set. I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers to watercolor in the images. Once the images dried, I used some white acrylic ink to splatter some white ink on top of it all. Then, that once that was dry, as well, I used the coordinating die set to die cut them out.

For the background of the card, I used a piece of white woodgrain cardstock. I used the new Arched Frames Die Set to die cut out an arch in the middle of the card. Then, I used some white embossing paste and the Trailing Leaves Stencil to add some texture, too.

I arranged the flowers around the arch, then splattered some tiny bits of black ink on top. The sentiment from Heartfelt Roses Stamp Set was heat embossed onto some vellum. Then I used the Banner Trio Die Set to die cut it out! 
I finished off the card by added some clear drops!

Hello Fall Card by Samantha Mann

Hello Fall Card!
Today we are sharing this purr-fect fall card by Samantha!

This card features:

Heartfelt Fall Stamp Set

Autumn Leaves Die Set

Arched Frames Die Set

A7 Frames & Banners Die Set
Cat Builder Die Set

I did a lot of die cutting with this card!
I used two different greys for the kitty from the Cat Builder Die Set. I even added some of the dark greys as accents on one ear two paws and a circle around the eye, too! 
I also added some details with a white gel pen to the ears and collar, too.

I die cut out all of the leaves from colored cardstock using the Autumn Leaves Die Set. I used light pink, bright pink, coral, light yellow and also dark yellow to die cut the leaves. Then I added some ink blending to each of the leaves with coordinating colors of Distress Inks. 

To finish the card, I used the larges arch from the Arched Frames Die Set to to die cut out the frame from some warm grey colored cardstock. The outside frame was popped up with foam tape. Then, once I arranged the leaves around the frame, I splattered them with white acrylic ink. 

The sentiment was heat embossed in white using the Heartfelt Fall Stamp Set onto some dark grey cardstock. Finally, I die cut the sentiment out using the frame from the A7 Frames & Banners Die Set.
