Cauldron Bubble Bundle and Buffalo Check Stamp Set

Happy Halloween Everybody!  I thought this card would be perfect for today!  It's the Cauldron Bubble Stamp Set and Cauldron Framelits Dies; and the Buffalo Check Stamp Set~some of my favorites in the holiday catalog!

A little bit about the card...The card base is Gorgeous Grape with two cardstock layers on top--Basic Black and Granny Apple Green.  I inked the Buffalo Check Stamp with Black Memento Ink and stamped it onto the Granny Apple Green layer.  The cauldron is from the Toil & Trouble Designer Paper and cut out using the Caulron Framelits Dies.  The stamps are from the Cauldron Bubble Stamp Set.  Be sure to notice the Black Glittered Organdy  Ribbon and darling little Spider Trinket!

🎃Even though it's the last day of October, it's not too late to purchase your Cauldron Bubble Bundle!...It's available in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog until January 2, 2019.

Paper Pumpkin October Kit 2018-Friends of a Feather

 

Our Friends of a Feather kit is a “cut above the rest,” delivering cards with intricate detail—courtesy of the latest papercrafting technology. Though the art of papercutting is over a thousand years-old and involves making intricate cuts with scissors to achieve a detailed, decorative piece, laser-cutting has vastly simplified the process and put this global folk art within the reach of anyone!

 

And while we think you’ll love the detail these unique cards display, you’ll also love their versatile color palette. The warm fall tones fit perfectly with autumn’s changing leaves, yet their southwestern vibe (think sandstone cliffs and intensely-hued sunsets) make them perfect for any occasion. Each Friends of a Feather kit has 8 printed card bases and envelopes, 3 sheets die-cut elements, 6 sheets laser-cut elements, metallic twine, gold weave ribbon, and adhesive-backed sequins.

 

 

Here are a few Alternate Projects with this Month's Paper Pumpkin Kit...

🎃Christmas cheer will be easy to find this year with Paper Pumpkin, Stampin’ Up!’s One-Stop™ Box for the holidays...November’s kit will arrive on your doorstep in a specially-designed package filled with everything you need for a successful holiday crafting experience.

Winter Woods Stamp Set and In the Woods Framelits dies

Our second Hostess Club Project this month features the Winter Woods Bundle!...The Winter Woods Stamp Set (available in wood and clear mount) has photo-realistic images; and when you add In The Woods Framelits Dies, you can add 3D trees, too!

You'll discover that one of the die-cut pine boughs (when used with a bone folder) creates a fluffy, dimensional pine tree.  We'll use Towmbow Liquid Glue and White Embossing Powder along with the Heat Tool to create "snow" on the pine boughs!

Did you know...The Winter Woods Stamp Set was created to compliment Lovely as a Tree Stamp Set and Rooted in Nature Bundle?

Spirited Snowmen Stamp Set and Buffalo Check Stamp Set-Hostess Club Project #1

Our first Hostess Club Project features the Spirited Snowmen Stamp Set and the Buffalo Check Stamp Set.  We'll learn how to create this gift card holder along with the buffalo check background in Blueberry Bushel ink.  The "check pattern" looks like designer paper on this gift card holder! You may notice a bit of white embossing on Blueberry Bushel cardstock!

I have fallen in LOVE with the Granny Apple Green and Blueberry Bushel color combination.  Just imagine this gift card holder created in Christmas colors!  How festive with these darling, spirited snowmen.  They are too cute for words!!  Did I ever mention that I LOVE (and collect) snowmen?  Give these holly jolly snowmen a place in your home. They deserve it! And they will prove themselves useful..for the holidays and all winter long!

The Spirited Snowmen and Buffalo Check started as a card before I changed it to a gift card holder!
