Creating a Dimensional Halloween Card featuring Honey Bee Stamps

Hi friends. A quick way to create a dimensional background with little effort is to use an embossing folder. We all have a bunch of embossing folders we bought when it was all the rage to emboss everything and now they sit in a drawer or craft room shelf collecting dust. Am I right?!? Come on, you know it’s true??? LOL Well thankfully they are coming back in fashion and there are so many techniques you can do with them. Today we are keeping it simple — just some ink and a blender. No fancy tools needed either.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock to 8-1/2 x 5-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base. Then cut a piece measuring 4 x 5-1/4″ and embossed with the Stampin’ Up! Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder (retired); any spiderweb embossing folder will work here.

I used mostly Seedless Preserves and Villainous Poison Distress Oxide Inks to color the background. Then lightly went over the raised cobwebs with some Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Ink. I sprayed some water on the background to distress it further.

I stamped the all the images from the Honey Bee Stamps Pumpkin Patch Stampset onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Midnight Ink and heat set with Clear Embossing Powder. Then colored the pumpkin with Spiced Marmalade and Wild Honey Distress Oxide Inks. I colored the leaves with Twisted Citron, Rustic Wilderness, and Peeled Paint Distress Oxide Inks. I used Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink for the flowers.

I stamped the ghost and bat images from Lawn Fawn Happy Haunting stampset and colored them with Copic Markers. I used C00, 0 and R20 for the ghosts. And then diecut them with the coordinating dies.

I stamped the sentiment from Honey Bee Stamps Boo 3×4 Stamp Set onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Midnight Ink and die cut the ‘boo’ from Simon Says Stamp Cardstock 100# Black 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock 3x with the Honey Bee Boo Dies. I finished it off by adding some glitter with a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from Queen and Company Halloween Hoopla Kit with with Midnight Ink and added an extra ghost.

Hi friends. Here’s a quick pumpkin shaped card that can easily be mass produced. You can use these as cards, notes, invitations… I added additional ink over the pumpkins to give them more depth but you can easily stamp onto white cardstock or plain colored cardstock.

3or this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock to 7-1/2 x 4-3/4″ and scored at 3-3/4″ to create the card base. Then diecut it using the largest pumpkin from the Honey Bee Stamps Patchwork Pumpkin Dies, leaving the edge of thedie a bit off the card base so it doesn’t cut through the edge. I also cut a second piece of just the pumpkin.

I stamped the pumpkin using both Catherine Pooler Designs Orange Twist and Mandarin Spice Inks then inked with Catching Rays, Sauna, and Orange Twist Inks to create gradient. The stamped the leaves with Memento Tuxedo Ink and colored them with. the stamped the stem and spirals with Lime Rickey and Eucalyptus Inks.

I stamped the sentiment from Honey Bee Stamps Autumn 3×4 Stamp Set onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Stampin’ up! Early Espresso Ink and die cut the ‘autumn’ from Stampin’ up! Early Espresso 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock and the shadow from Vellum with Honey Bee Stamps Autumn – Honey Cuts.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from Queen and Company Happy Harvest Fall Kit with Stampin’ up! Early Espresso Ink and added anextra leaf and spiral.
