Halloween Card Using Only Dies feat. Lawn Fawn

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. It’s been a few weeks since I posted a Halloween card so it’s time for some new ones. Here is one using only Lawn Fawn dies and stencils. It features the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop and Spooky Gate dies. It’s really easy to create fun or spooky dimensional cards with these dies.

For this card, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of Lawn Fawn Spiffier Speckles 6×6 Paper to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″ for the background. I used the Lawn Fawn Nighttime Sky Stencil with Tim Holtz Wilted Violet, Dusty Concord, Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks, and Scattered Straw Distress Oxide Ink.

Next I die cut the forest from Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock with the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop 3x, the grass from Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow Cardstock (retired) with the Lawn Fawn Simple Grassy Hillsides and inked it with Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow Ink (retired), and the gate from Simon Says Stamp Slate 100lb Gray Cardstock with the Spooky Gate and inked it with Tim Holtz Black Soot Distress Ink to add some dimension. I die cut tombstones, ghosts, stones, and owl from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and colored with Copic Markers. I used R20, C00, 0, & 110 for the ghosts; C3, C5, C9 & 110 for the owl; N1 & N4 for the tombstones; and W3 & W5 for the stones.

I stamped the sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Spooky Village Stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Midnight Ink. I trimmed it down to 1/2 x 4″.

I finished off the card by adding some sparkle to the ghosts and the owl with a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4 x 5-1/4″ and stamped a sentiment and ghosts from the Lawn Fawn Spooky Village Stampset with Catherine Pooler Midnight Ink.

Fall Card Series #5: Window Card feat. Catherine Pooler Appley Ever After

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. The next post in my Fall card series features a window card using the coordinating dies from the Catherine Pooler’s Appley Ever After stampset. This was a very easy card to make. To add texture to the background I added an embossed panel behind it (more on this later in the post).

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″ which I embossed using the Catherine Pooler Designs Woven Coverplate (see your embossing machines instructions for proper sandwich).

I cut a piece of pattern paper from the Catherine Pooler Bushel and a Peck 6 x 6 Patterned Paper to 2-1/4 x 5-1/2″ and cut out three apple windows using the dies from the Appley Ever After Dies. I cut 2 pieces of red metallic cardstock from Tim Holtz Idea-ology 8 x 8 Paper Stash Metallic Jewels Kraft Stock to 3/4 x 5-1/2″.

Then stamped a sentiment and two apples onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ from the Catherine Pooler Designs Appley Ever After Stamp Set with Midnight, Samba, It’s a Girl, Over Coffee, and Deck the Halls Inks. I added Foam Tape behind the top panel and adhered the apples and sentiment behind it before adhereing to the card base.

On the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from the CP Joyful Thanks Sentiments Stamp Set with Samba Ink and added a strip of pattern paper measuring 1 x 5-1/2″.

Fall Card Series #4: Using Catherine Pooler Fall Frames Two Ways and A Fancy Fold

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. The next post in my Fall Card series features two cards using the same Frame die in two very different ways. And I also stepped up one of the cards by adding a fancy fold inside the card. The first one is a shaker but it turned out to be difficult to see the shaker bits inside because of the word die I used, so really this one ‘doesn’t ‘need to be a shaker; it could easily be a floating sentiment like the second card.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

I die cut the shadow from the Honey Bee Stamps Large Thanks Dies (retired) and backed it with Acetate to create a window. I die cut the word “thanks” from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″using the same dies. I added Foam Tape behind the panel, added some Appolonia Sequin Mix and backed it with a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ which I colored with CP Green Tea Ink.

Then I die cut the frame 2x from some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames. I stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Thanks Thanks Thanks Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Over Coffee Ink and cut it to 3/8 x 2-1/2″.

I finished off the card by adding some Nuvo Drops in Gloss White.

I left the inside of the card of the card blank and added a piece of Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper measuring 1 x 5-1/2″.

Dimensions

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″. I die cut the shadow from the Honey Bee Stamps Large Thanks Dies (retired) and backed it with Acetate to create a window. I used the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames to emboss the border on the top panel. Check your embossing machines for the proper sandwich to do this properly.

I die cut the word “thanks” from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper using the same dies. I added Foam Tape behind the panel and backed it with a piece of green pattern paper from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper.

I stamped leaves from the Catherine Pooler Designs Leaf Motifs Stamp Set (retired) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Orange Peel, Sauna, Polished, Spiced, Green Tea, and Eucalyptus inks. I don’t have dies for these stamps so I fussycut them all.

I finished off the card by adding some Nuvo Drops in Dark Walnut.

For the inside of the card I decided to step it up and add a fancy fold! I started by cutting a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored it at 2-1/8″, 4-1/4″, and 6-7/8″. Basically scoring it into quarters. Then I adhered I inside the card. I cut 4 pieces of pattern paper from Catherine Pooler Designs Sunflower Fields Forever Patterned Paper to 2-1/4″ (2) and 2-1/8″ (2). I shaved off about 1/16″ from all the panels so it didn’t interfere with the folds.

I added a border on one of the panels using the Catherine Pooler Fall Frames cut from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″. As well as a stitched rectangle and square to the other panels cut with the Lawn Fawn Small Stitched RECTANGLE Stackables and Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Square Stackables. I stamped the sentiment from Lawn Fawn Thanks Thanks Thanks Stamp Set onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Green Tea Ink and cut to 1-3/4 x 4-1/8″. I also added some more leaves from the Catherine Pooler Designs Leaf Motifs Stamp Set (retired).

Embossed Background Using A Die feat. Lawn Fawn Giant Outlined Happy Birthday

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. Today I’m using the Lawn Fawn Portrait Giant Outlined Happy Birthday die to create an embossed background. This card was pretty quick to make even with all the die cutting involved.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Cardstock to 4 x 5-1/4″ for the background.

I embossed the sentiment panel from Crafter’s Companion 6 x 6 White Pearl Shimmering Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Portrait Giant Outlined Happy Birthday die. (See your die cutting machine’s manula for the correct sandwich to use). Then die cut the same panel from 6 colors from the Tim Holtz Idea-ology 8 x 8 METALLIC JEWELS Kraft Stock Paper and Tim Holtz Idea-ology 8 x 8 Paper Stash METALLIC Kraft Stock Paper.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from Catherine Pooler Designs Young at Heart stampset (not available-part of the Stamp of Approval Collections she used to produce) with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and added some of the small shapes left over from the sentiment panels.

Halloween Card Combining Older and Newer Lawn Fawn Stamps

kittieslovecrafting

Hi friends. Time to work on Halloween cards! It’s never too soon to start making Halloween Cards in my opinion. For this card I decided to use an older Lawn Fawn mason jar stampset (Summertime Charm) with the How You Bean? Candy Corn Add-on stampset.

For this card, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock to 8-1/2 x 5-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base. Then die cut a piece of Stampin’ Up! Elegant Eggplant 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired) with the Catherine Pooler Scallops and Dots dies.and embossed it with Stampin’ Up!’s Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder (retired). Then added some Catherine Pooler Grape Crush Ink as well as Tim Holtz Distress BLACK SOOT Ink to accentuate the raised areas. I also created the moon using Lawn Fawn YETI Pigment Ink and masking paper.

I die cut a piece of Stampin’ Up! Old Olive 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock with the Catherine Pooler Scallops and Dots dies. Then die cut that piece with the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border. I used Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn Distress Oxides Ink to add some dimension.

I die cut the fence from Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock using Lawn Fawn’s Spooky Fence Border.

I stamped all the images onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. The mason jar is from Lawn Fawn’s Summertime Charm, the candy corn is from Lawn Fawn’s How You Bean? Candy Corn Add-on, the pumpkins and squirrels from the Lawn Fawn Pick of the Patch, and the ghosts and bats from Lawn Fawn Happy Haunting Stampsets.

I colored all the images with Copic Marker. I used C00, R20 and the blender for the ghosts; Y11, Y13, Y15, YR04, YR07, YR09, C00 & the blender for the candy corn;YG17, YG25, YG67, YR04, YR07, YR09, & YR27 for the pumpkins; BG000, B0000 & 0 for the mason jar; R20, C00, C3 & C5 for the squirrels; YR31, YR14 & Y11 for the pumpkin guts; and BV0000, BV11 & BV04 for the pumpkin scoop.

I stamped the sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Pick of the Patch onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest with Catherine Pooler Orange Peel Ink and cut it to 5/8 x 3-1/8″.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest to 4 x 5-1/4″ and added an extra ghost, pumpkin and bats.

I used all dies except for the sentiment strip and added texture to the background using a Tim Holtz stencil. I love how bright this card turned out. Definitely some summer vibes happening here!

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece die cut using the Catherine Pooler Scallops & Dots Dies.

I used Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink for the lighter leaves and limes; Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide Ink for the darker leaves and stems; Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Ink for the lemons and the drink and Stampin’ Up! Sahara Sand Ink (retired) for the fruit basket.

Watercolor Baby Shower Card feat. Lawn Fawn

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. I could not help but make some more baby cards with the Lawn Fawn Giant Outlined Hello Baby Die. It’s such a fun die to play with. I combined this one with images from an older stampset I have, the Lawn Fawn Hello Baby Stampset (which ironically has the same name as the die but is now discontinued).

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base. And another piece from the Doodlebug 6 x 6 Kraft in color – color paper to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2. I die cut a scalloped panel from Stampin’ Up! Balmy Blue 12 x 12 Glimmer Cardstock (retired) using the Catherine Pooler Tags, Etc Die set.

I die cut the sentiment panel from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and Echo Park – Bundle of Joy (Dots & Stripes) 6 x 6 Paper Pack (discontinued) using Lawn Fawn Giant Outlined Hello Baby Die.

For the background, I cut a piece of Watercolor Paper to 3-3/4 x 5″. Then used Tim Holtz Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, and Wild Honey Distress Inks.

I stamped images from the Lawn Fawn Hello Baby Stampset (discontinued) onto some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento TUXEDO BLACK Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used YG25, YG17 & YG01 and Y02, Y13, & Y15 for the frog; C1, C3 & C5, R20 for the bunny; BG000 & 0 for the cloud; Y02, Y13, & Y15, R20, YR09 & YR16 for the ducks; YG25 & YG17 for the rattles; and B14, B16 & B12 for the umbrella.

Two Cards Using One Die: No Waste

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. In honor of Pride month I made these two rainbow cards using the Catherine Pooler Designs Retro Love Dies. This die produces a very cool sentiment that allows you to use the word by itself, with the shadow or even cut out an outline of the word. You can also use it to create shaker cards.

For this first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base, as well as another piece cut to 4 x 5-1/4″. I added double sided tape to the panel and then cut 1/2 inch strips of colored paper from DCWV Double-Sided Mat Stack 4.5″X6.5″ Brights (may be discontinued – link to similar stack below), Stampin’ Up! Pacific Point 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired), and Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock.

I trimmed the excess paper and die cut the word “LOVE” from the center of the card. I die cut the word 3x more from Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock so I can stack them and create dimension and added a piece of the black cardstock behind it.

I stamped the a sentiment from Honey Bee Stamps Autumn Buzzword stamps (retired) onto some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Designs Midnight Ink and trimmed it down to 1/2 x 4 x 5-1/4″. Before adhering it to the card I added some Love From Lizi Silver Glitter Pin Stripe Peel-offs.

I finished off the card by adding some Pretty Pink Posh PLATINUM Pearls.

I left the inside of the card blank.

Dimensions

For the second card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base. Then cut a piece of pattern paper from Catherine Pooler Designs Black Tie Gala 6 x 6 Paper (discontinued) to 2-1/2 x 4-1/4″. I also cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock to 1-3/16 x 5-1/2″ for the sentiment.

When I die cut the word “LOVE” and the shadow from the center of the previous rainbow panel, it left me with an outline which I will use for this card. I die cut the shadow from Silver Glitter Cardstock. I then stamped the sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Simply Sentiments Stampset with Versamark Ink and heat embossed with Wow White Embossing Powder.

I finished off the card by adding some Smooth Silver Sequin Discs.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of the same pattern paper blank to 1 x 5-1/2″.

Hello Baby Shower Cards feat. Lawn Fawn

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. I needed some very quick baby shower cards recently to bring to my cousin’s baby shower and of course my brain could not come up with anything. I saw this card from the Lawn Fawn design team, Kara Pogreba, which was really cute and seemed quick to make so I had to CASE it. I love the elephants from the Lawn Fawn Elephant Parade stampsets! So cute!!! And you can make them any color you want too! I was given specific colors to use.

For blue version of this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base. The pink version used a piece Lawn Fawn Kraft 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock. Then cut a piece of pattern paper from Pebbles 12 x 12 Special Delivery (discontinued) and a piece of Echo Park IT’S A GIRL 6 x 6 Mega Paper Pad to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

I die cut the sentiment panel from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″, Stampin’ Up! Basic Gray 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock, Lawn Fawn Kraft 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock, and Echo Park – It’s A Girl Collection 12 x 12 Paper Pack Solids using Lawn Fawn Giant Outlined Hello Baby Die.

I stamped the images from the Lawn Fawn Set Elephant Parade Stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento TUXEDO BLACK Ink and colored with Copic Markers.

I used C00, C3, C5, R20 & R30 for the elephants and mice; and BG000, Y02 & Y15, B32 & B37 (blue card), BG10 & 0, Y00 & Y02, R000 & R20, & G12 & G82 (pink card) for the bottles.

I die cut the banner from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and Lawn Fawn Kraft 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Fancy Wavy Banners Die Cuts. Then stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Set Elephant Parade Add-On Stampset with Memento TUXEDO BLACK Ink.
