kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. Here’s another Autumn inspired card featuring the cute pumpkin mug from Catherine Pooler Designs Halloween Mug Shots (incl. in the Boo Box). This time I created a shaker card using the Haunted Tags & Charms Dies (also incl. in the Boo Box).

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 an A2 card base, and a piece of pattern paper from the CP Sunflower Fields Forever 6 x 6 Patterned Paper to 4 x 5-1/4″.

I die cut the shaker window from the pattern paper panel using the tag in the Haunted Tags & Charms Dies (incl. in the Boo Box). I added a piece of acetate with double-sided tape and added foam tape to the back. For the backer panel I cut a piece of Lawn Fawn Paper Bag 100 lb Cardstock to 4 x 5-1/4″ and used the Taylored Expressions Burlap Embossing Folder to add texture. For the shaker bits, I used some orange, red, brown and green sequins from my stash.

I stamped the pumpkin mug and foam images from the Catherine Pooler Designs Halloween Mug Shots (incl. in the Boo Box) onto some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I used Copic markers to color the images. I used YR04, YR09, YR14, , E23, E29, YG25, & YG67 for the mug; and W0 & 0, YG25, and E23 for the foam and straw.

I stamped the sentiment from Catherine Pooler Designs Boo Day Stampset (included in the Boo Box) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Eucalyptus Ink, fussycut it and adhered it to the card.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of CP Sunflower Fields Forever 6 x 6 Patterned Paper to 1 x 4-1/4″ and stamped a sentiment from the stampset included in the Queen and Company Happy Harvest Fall Kit with CP Orange Peel Ink.

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. So for this card, I thought I’d use a technique that I love to use to create dimensional backgrounds without having to have an embossing folder. You can use your dies to create faux embossed backgrounds. It’s super easy and fun to do!

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 an A2 card base, and another piece to 3-3/4 x 5″, and a piece of pattern paper from the Catherine Pooler Designs Eerie-sistible 6 x 6 Paper (included in the Boo Box) to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

I die cut several words from the Catherine Pooler Designs Made You Eek Die Set (included in the Boo Box) from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and adhered to the background panel to create a pattern, creating an embossed look.

I stamped the several images from the Catherine Pooler Designs Fright Night Stampset (included in the Boo Box) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Midnight, Orange Twist, Bellini, Catching Rays, Martini, Bellini, Catching Rays and Pixie Dust inks.

I used Copic markers to color some of the images. I used C0, 0, & R20 for the ghosts; and BG000, 0, C1, YR04, YR09, Y17 & Y06 for the candy corn jar.

Lastly, I stamped the sentiment from Catherine Pooler Designs Fright Night Stampset (included in the Boo Box) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Midnight Ink, fussycut it and popped it up with Foam Tape.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Catherine Pooler Designs Eerie-sistible 6 x 6 Paper (included in the Boo Box) to 1 x 5-1/4″, stamped a sentiment from the Catherine Pooler Designs Fright Night Stampset with CP Martini Ink and just added a purple witch hat.
