More Halloween Fun!

Today's post uses the stamp set that is a hostess promotion until the end of this month (October 2014)!  Tons of great greetings in it and it can be yours if you gather $300 in orders or you can place an order using the hostess code and get your name in the drawing to win it!  I'll add the code at the end of this post.

 

 

 

Colors are Bermuda Bay, Tangerine Tango, and Sahara Sand.  The designer series paper is Motley Monsters out of the holiday mini  on page 45.  It just takes a 1" x 3" piece of paper to cover the Hershey's nuggets.  Used the  4"x 6" cello bags from page 200 of the regular catalog. 

A fun project!  Happy Halloween everyone!

 

Hostess Code:  BWMQKAQQ

Modern Medley dsp

During July (time is running out), you can buy 3 and get 1 free of our regular designer series papers!  Be sure to stock up and what a better time since they are all new!  Check out  pages 151, 153, and 154 of our annual catalog for your choices.  Today's card is using Modern Medley.  I think you could make many variations of this style.  The card was made for MOJO304 a challenge that was online.

Snowmen--but no snow here!

Hard to believe it January here in Montana and we are having record breaking temperatures with NO snow!  These cards are some I made during the holidays and sent out as either Christmas or New Year's cards!  The stamp sets are Jolly Bingo Bits, and Teeny, tiny wishes.  A couple of my fav's.  I use teeny tiny wishes all the time!  It uses Cherry Cobbler, Wild Wasabi, qnd Whisper White cardstocks.

Lots of punches used with the scallop circle, 1¼ inch circle, 1 3/8 inch circle, corner rounder& modern label .  A little bling with the rhinestones and cherry cobbler baker's twine.  Be sure to take a peek in the occasion's mini to see the new colors of baker's twine we have now!  The embossing folder used to make the background is snowburst which is carried over from the holiday mini and it's item code number is 124096.  A little glue pen and dazzling diamonds glitter to ground the snowman and that's it!  Thanks for stopping by today--make it a good one!

Product tip

Here is my tip for the day....when attaching the piece of embossed cardstock to the base card (on this card it is white on white so you may have to look closely); it works best to use the green tombow glue found on page 206 of the IB&C.  The snail adhesive usually comes loose but have found the best results with this glue. 

Multipurpose Liquid Glue  item #110755   $3.95

Delicate Doilies

Happy Saturday to you all!  Today's post is done with Delicate Doilies, another new set to the current IB&C.  You can find it on page 127.

It also uses the flirtatious DSP which is a specialty paper new to this catalog as well.  I used concord crush, peach parfait, and pear pizzazz for my ink and cardstock colors along with whisper white.  Added some pearls for bling--those pearls and rhinestones were the greatest addition to SU's line of products last year.  I use them all the time!  The punches used are the dotted scallop ribbon border and modern label.  Enjoy your weekend!  Thanks for dropping by for a few minutes today.

Flower Fest Again

Today's post, as promised, is with Flower Fest from the summer mini catalog.  It uses cherry cobbler, crumb cake, & early espresso for colors.  I love this combination.

Greetings are from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set--it has a greeting for just about everything you might need.  To accessorize I used some cherry cobbler seam binding, and pearls (some I colored).  I also used the punches that matched the flowers and the modern label punch for the greeting that I tucked behind the stamped flower strip.  Thanks for stopping by.  Have a good rest of your week--I am off for a funeral on Friday to the Missoula area.  Chat again soon.
