Pink & Main Pumpkin Kisses

-


Hello!  I am sharing. another card using the adorable Mice stamps from Pink&Main.  I think they are so cute I just couldn't resist.


For this card I used “Pumpkin Kisses” Stamps and Dies.




 

I stamped the image on Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb. cardstock with Gina K. Designs Amalgam Ink and colored it with Copic Markers:

 

Mouse: W3, W2, W1, W0, E42, E41, E40, R12, R11, R01

Pumpkins:  YR18, YR04, YR14, Y35

Pumpkin Stems: YG95, YG93, YG91

Green Leaves: YG67, G07, YG09, then colored over the entire leaf with YG63 to tone down the brightness

Red Leaves:  R24, YR24, YR23

Sunflowers:  Y18, Y08, Y15, Y13, E57, E25, E23

 

I die cut the image with the coordinating die from the Pumpkin Kisses die set.

 

To create the center of the card I die cut two circles from the “Zig Zag” Circle Dies set also from Pink&Main.

 

The larger circle is approximately 3.5” and I cut it out from a lighter shade of yellow cardstock.  The smaller circle is approximately 3”.  I cut it out from a darker shade of yellow cardstock.  I also cut out the center of this piece with a 2” circle die.  I did a little ink blending with Gathered Twigs Distress ink just around the inner part of the darker yellow circle.

 

I cut the very center from Neenah Desert Storm cardstock and ink blended it with Gathered Twigs, adding color from the outer edge towards the center.  I tried to keep the outer edge darker and I added almost no ink to the middle.  I stamped the “Hello Pumpkin” sentiment towards the left of the circle with Versafine Onyx Black Ink.

 

I adhered the two yellow zig zag circles and the brown center to a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock cut down to 4.125” x 5.375”.  Finally, I adhered the mouse towards the lower right of the yellow circles and glued the entire card down on a mossy green piece of A2 sized cardstock.


I hope you liked my card.  Thanks for stopping by!

Memory Box Cauldron Witch

  Hello!     Today I’m sharing a fun Halloween card I created with the Cauldron Witch and Fancy Gate Globe Dies from Memory Box.   To create the gate, I sprayed some Iron Gate Distress Mica Stain on a piece of black cardstock.  After it was dry I used the Fancy Gate Globe Die from Memory Box to cut it out.  Note: I used a lightweight black cardstock for the gate.  I recommend using a heavier weight cardstock so the gate won't be flimsy.   For the wall background I cut a piece of light gray cardstock down to 4.125” x 5.375”.  I used the “Small Brick Wall” stencil from My Favorite Things and ink blended some Lost Shadow Distress Ink on the gray cardstock.   I adhered the gate to the cardstock wall, about .5” up from the bottom.  I used Eclipse Masking paper to mask off the sides and I added some Black Soot Distress Ink to give the appearance of a path leading up to the gate.  I also put the stencil down again ...
