kittieslovecrafting

Hi friends. Here’s another adorable scene card using the Pumpkin House Die from Lawn Fawn. It’s such a fun die set. There are so many occasions for which it can be used, Maybe a winter pumpkin?? Christmas??

For this card, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock to 8-1/2 x 5-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base. Then cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock measuring 4 x 5-1/4″. I used Distress Oxide Inks to create the background on this panel.

I masked off the moon by punching out a 1-1/4″ circle from post it paper. I used Tim Holtz Seedless Preserves, Villainous Potion, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Inks. Then removed the mask and added Scattered Straw Distress Oxide Ink around the moon which blended with the sky colors and created a cool spooky effect. This was totally unplanned but worked out in my favor. I also sprayed water on the panel to further distress it.

I die cut all the necessary images from the Lawn Fawn Pumpkin House Die from various cardstocks and colored them with ink to add dimension. I used Stampin’ Up! Pumpkin Pie 8-1/2 x 11″ 80lb Cardstock for the pumpkin house, cut two so I can pop up the center portion, added a spiderweb pattern using Tim Holtz Cling Mount Stamps: Trick or Treat, Versamark Ink and White Embossing Powder. Then added StampinI used Stampin’ Up! Pumpkin Pie Ink to color the pumpkin. I used Stampin’ Up! Old Olive 8-1/2 x 11″ 80lb Cardstock which I colored with Stampin’ Up! Old Olive 8-1/2 x 11″ 80lb Cardstock for the leaves; a pattern paper from the Honey Bee HALLOWEEN HARVEST 6 x 6 Paper Pad for the door which I colored with Catherine Pooler Designs Grape

Ink; Simon Says Stamp Cardstock 100# SLATE Gray Cardstock for the window frames, fence shadow, and chimney shadow. I used Catherine Pooler Designs Black Jack Ink to color the wndow frames then backed the windows and door with a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock which I colored with Catherine Pooler Designs Limoncello Ink. I die cut the wood slats, ghosts, bats and spider using Lawn Fawn Build-A-House Halloween Add-on. I used Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock for the windows and colored them with Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede Ink; Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock for the ghosts; and Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock for the bats and spider. The fence is from Lawn Fawn’s Spooky Fence Border and was cut from Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock.

I stamped the sentiment from Queen and Company Halloween Hoopla! stampset (included in the kit) onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Catherine Pooler Designs Midnight Ink and fussycut it.

I finished the card by adding some white to the background with a White Signo Gel Pen and shimmer to the fence with a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen.

Hi friends. Here’s another cute scene card for Fall/Autumn. I pulled out some older Lawn Fawn and Honey Bee Stamps stamps and dies to make this one. I used the Honey Bee Stamps Birch A2 Cover Plate Base and Top Plate and Lawn Fawn Jump For Joy Stamps and Dies. I love the forest critters in this stampset. So cute!

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base. I inked the sky directly to the card base using Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean Distress Oxide Inks. Then added some splatter with White Acrylic Paint.

I diecut the tree base from Stampin’ Up! Early Espresso 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock and the top layer from both Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock and Stampin’ Up! Early Espresso 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock, using the Honey Bee Stamps Birch A2 Cover Plate Base and Top Plate so I can stack them. I die cut the grass from Simon Says Stamp 100# Green Leaf Cardstock with the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border and colored with Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink.

I stamped the forest critters, leaves, acorns and rake from Lawn Fawn Jump For Joy Stamps and the pumpkins from Honey Bee Loads of Fall Stamp Set onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Ink and colored them with Copic Markers.

I used YR16, YR27 & YR09, YG25 & YG17 for the pumpkins; R17, R26, & R05, Y17 & Y18, YR09, YR13, YR16 & YR27 for the leaves; E0000, E34 & E37 for the acorns; E70, E74, E34 , E37 & R20 for the porcupine; , W0, W1, W3, W5 & W7, R20 for the owl; E13, E99, E09, E37, R20, W0 & W3 for the squirrel; N2, N4, N5, R05, R17 & R46 for the rake and die cut with the coordinating dies.

I stamped the sentiment from Lawn Fawn Jump For Joy Stamps onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink and Memento Tuxedo Ink. This stampset has a coordinating die set which cuts out the larger sentiments and leaves.

I finished the card by adding some highlights with a White Signo Gel Pen.
