A Spooktacular Halloween 2019

Today's projects are two fun Halloween 2019 treat-giving ideas using the wonderful Spooktacular Bash Bundle from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.
One is a treat pouch sized perfectly for miniature bags or bars of candy and the other is the tag to hang from a drink or other treat.
This bundle is a fun one for Halloween but if that's not for you, be sure you don't miss the beautiful ornate frames. These can be used for any occasion.
Now let's take a look at the video with these two projects!

Pouch
Cut card stock for the pouch to 4" x 6". 
With 4" side at the top, score at 1/2".
With 6" side at the top, score at 1-1/2" x 4-1/4".
You'll need another piece of the same color card stock cut to 2-1/2" x 3-1/4".
For the sentiment, stamp on Pumpkin Pie card stock (3" x 4") then die cut.
Choose a character from the designer paper to die cut with a small frame.

Tag

For tag, cut DSP (designer series paper) to 2" x 4".
Accent strip is cut 1/2" x 2".
You'll need approx. 2-1/2" x 3" to cut Basic Black tag and 2" x 2" to cut Gray Granite tag.

Stars Stamper Spotlight: Catherine Stewart

Today's Stars Stamper Spotlight features a long time team member, Catherine Stewart.

Catherine is super talented as evident from this work above.  She has a beautiful eye for design and her cards have lots of texture.

The color scheme here is Night of Navy, Old Olive and copper.  The stamp set is a favorite from the annual catalog, Painted Harvest, along with the must-have Leaf Punch.

Here are the details:

• Card base is Night of Navy cut at 5-1/2 x 8-1/2.
• Whisper White cardstock is cut  4 x 5-1/4 and dry embossed with the Tin Tile Embossing Folder.
• Notice how this white layer is torn and overlapped to add a beautiful touch of texture.
• Four sets of leaves were stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on Old Olive cardstock, then punched.
• Four sets of leaves were stamped in Versamark ink and embossed in copper then punched.
• Flowers:  Ink up base flower in Night of Navy, stamp off on scrap paper then stamp on Whisper White. Ink accent flower stamp in Night of Navy then stamp full strength over previous flower.
• Stamp flower centers in Versamark then copper emboss.
• Fussy cut flowers with Paper Snips.
• Stamp sentiment in Versamark on a strip of Whisper White about 3-1/2 x 1-1/4" and embossed in copper. Banner cut the end as shown.
• The Old Olive piece that backs the sentiment is cut 3-1/2" x 1-1/2".
• Adhere sentiment on top of this Old Olive piece.

Coloring with Stampin' Up! Stampin' Blends...For the Birds

Today's cardmaking project is definitely for these birds on a branch colored with the beautiful alcohol markers from Stampin' Up!...our Stampin' Blends.

These little sweeties are from the Free As A Bird Cling Stamp Set [149468] in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog and it's so much fun coloring these little feathered friends in different colors.

Here's the quick video that will show the coloring process.  It won't take much of your time so give it a whirl!

Lisa's Inklings:

• The card base is Smoky Slate 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [131202] cut at 5-1/2 x 8-1/2.  You will also need the backing layer for the birds cut at 4-1/2 x 2-3/4 and a little piece for the sentiment cut at 1/2 x 1.
• The Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [100730] for the stamped image is cut at 4 x 5-1/4.
• The Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper [149592] is cut at 4 x 5-1/4.  (Notice the buds on this print are blue but I used pink for coloring the buds since I wanted the little birds to have a bit of blue.)

This type of coloring is so relaxing.  I hope you will give it a try.  If you'd like to know which colors to begin your collection, I have my suggestions HERE.

Here are the supplies used on today's cardmaking project.  You can just click the photos below to shop.   Thank you for your support and If you are looking for a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, I would be honored to serve you!
