Spook-tacular Halloween

 Hello Friends

Before we get started I wanted you to know we have a SALE in the online store.  So be sure to check it out HERE.  

The card I am sharing today is another one for Halloween.  I usually send out about 20 Halloween/Fall cards so I have a few more to make.  Today's card features the Halloween Chair plus a couple of others dies for some added fun.

Design Steps:

1.  You will need a black horizontal A2 card base, purple DP 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, black checked DP 4 x 5 1/4 and an orange frame cut with the largest of the Pierced Frame Rectangle dies

2.  Glue the purple to the black card base then glue the black check to the purple and last add the orange frame to the middle.  Set aside

3.  Using the Halloween Chair cut out the following colors of card stock: orange, green, black, yellow and brown.  For the cat I used the Spooky Tree Gnome and cut it out of black

4.  Assemble the pieces using a fine tip, fast drying glue

5.  Using the largest Wacky Stitched Rectangle cut out a piece of the purple striped DP.  Build your scene on the rectangle

6.  I needed a little something in the upper right corner so I cut out a web using the Spooky Halloween Castle and spiders from the Spooky Tree Gnome.  Add your sentiment to the left of the chair

7.  Place dimension tape on the back of the purple panel and pop it to the center of the card.  This fun Halloween card is complete

Hot Wheels!

 Hello Scapping Cottage Friends,

I am starting off the new year trying to get a head start on some birthday cards.  I have a number of male cards I need to make including hubby!  Masculine cards have always been a challenge for me.  But using the Classic 50's released has really helped with the challenge.  There is everything from cool cars to electric guitars!!  Today I am using the awesome Motorcycle.

Design Steps:

1.  Using the Motorcycle die cut out the pieces in the following colors of card stock: red, yellow, silver, black, light and dark grey.  Shade the pieces with various inks and a small applicator 

2.  Assemble the pieces using a fast drying fine tip glue

3.  For the base use black card stock in an A2 size 

• Cut a white panel 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 embossed in brick and inked with light grey
• A silver panel 1 3/4 x 5 1/4 embossed and layered on black
• A piece of turquoise cut with the third from the largest Wacky Stitched Rectangle and layered on black.  Wrap the turquoise rectangle with a piece of black ribbon
• Using the Ring in the New Year die cut out 5 of the hats in the black checked DP for the banner

4.  Glue the white brick panel to the black card front.  Glue the silver strip to the white brick panel slightly to the left as shown above.  Place pop up strips to the back of the turquoise rectangle and then pop it to the front as shown below

5.  Glue the black string to the top of the card as shown above and then add the little checked banners. Add the little red stars and your sentiment and the card is complete
