Jack-o-lantern Stencil 3 Ways + Video with Jennifer Jackson

Jack-o'-lantern card and Video

Hello! Jen here today with a trio of fun and simple Halloween cards that use our awesome three piece Jack-o'-lantern Stencil Set! 

The three layers included with the  Jack-o'-lantern Stencil Set make it super easy to create a 3 color pattern. Each stencil layer also has etching of the opposite layer, making it easy to line up with what you have already inked up. 

For my first card today (shown above), I used all three layers to create a jack-o'lantern pattern onto a piece of white Bristol paper that was trimmed to 2 7/8" wide by 4 1/8" tall. This size fits perfectly inside the stitched edge on the die cut rectangle from our Frames & Flags Die Set. I also cut out the black banner using the Frames & Flags Die Set and stamped and embossed the "Happy Halloween" sentiment onto the banner from the Spiderweb Oval Stamp Set! A bit of twine finishes the card off nicely. 

For my second card I used just the first two layers of the Jack-o'-lantern Stencil Set and left off the scary pumpkin faces to create a fall card:

This card was created exactly the same as the first card. The layout is the same but I used rust colored cardstock for the die cut rectangle and chocolate brown on the banner from our Frames & Flags Die Set. For the sentiment on this card I used a sentiment from our Autumn Oval Stamp Set.

For my third card, I used ONLY the third stencil (with the scary faces) from the Jack-o'-lantern Stencil Set:

On this card I used white texture paste over a piece of black cardstock for a scary background pattern! Then I used orange and yellow cardstock for the stitched rectangle and banner, cut out again with the Frames & Flags Die Set. The sentiment "Happy Haunting" is from the Spiderweb Oval Stamp Set.

Isn't it fun how you can use the same stencil set and layout to create three different cards!? 

Here is a video I created showing you how to create these cards! Enjoy!

Paw-tumn Greetings Card by Tatiana Trafimovich

Paw-tumn Greetings!

Today we have a gorgeous fall card by Tatiana featuring our favorite feline from the Newton's Crate Stamp Set. 

To create this beautiful card, Tatiana colored the image of the kitty in the crate from our Newton's Crate Stamp Set. She used neutral browns and grays on the kitty and crate and then added bright yellows and red-oranges to the pumpkins for a fun pop of fall color. She also added details of white using a gel pen.  She added the sentiment to the front of the crate and cut the image out using the coordinating Newton's Crate Die Set. So cute!

For the card base, she inked up a pretty pumpkin pattern using the pumpkin and stem layers from our three piece Jack-o-lantern Stencil Set. This stencil works awesome for Halloween when you add on scary pumpkin faces using the third layer, but if you leave it off, you have a lovely fall pattern, making this stencil super versatile!  The colors she used are amazing for fall too! 

For finishing touches she added white paint splatters and yellow sequins.

Happy Fall Cycling Card by Donna Idlet

Cycling by with Fall Fun!

Today Donna has created a fun Autumn cycling card that will help you feel the Fall breezes passing by!  

This fun card features the cycling dog and kitty from our Cycling Friends Stamp Set. She colored the image in neutral tones but colored the bicycle a bright blue shade. Such a fun way to make it pop! She cut the image out using the coordinating Cycling Friends Die Set to add to her card. To add the the Fall feel she added pumpkins to the bicycle basket, cut out using our Fall Friends Die Set. 

For her card base she created a scene by inking up a sky and adding in clouds and sun using our Sky Scene Builder Die Set. The lower cloud holds a sentiment inked from our Newton's Crate Stamp Set. 

Along the bottom she added a hill and some grass, cut out using our Land Borders Die Set. She assembled it all together, adding some leaves floating in the breeze from the Harvest Haul Stamp Set.  The whole scene is framed with a scallop edged frame that was cut out using our Frames & Flags Die Set.

Fall Leaves and Pumpkin Please Card by Farhana Sarker

Pumpkins Please! 

Today we are sharing an adorable fall kitty card by Farhana! 

For this beautiful fall creation she chose to color the image of the kitty in the mug from our Newton's Mug Stamp Set. She added a pumpkin to the center of the mug using the image from our Paw-tumn Newton Stamp Set. She colored image using bright teal and orange to really make it pop! The kitty peeking out the top of the mug looks adorable in gray tones. The image was cut out using the coordinating Newton's Mug Die Set. 

Here are the colors she used if you'd like to try them:

Next, she adde the sentiment from our Signs of Fall Stamp Set, embossed in gold onto a banner from our Frames & Flags Die Set. She tucked this behind the kitty image and added it to her card base. 

For the card base, she dry embossed leaves onto a white card base using our Falling Leaves Stencil. Then, she embossed the big square image from our Fall Fringe Stamp Set in gold onto vellum and carefully cut out the square. She angled it onto her card and placed the kitty in the center of the square. 

What a fun and unexpected way to combine these images together!
