Kindest Gnomes Bewitching Halloween

Today's project is a mash up of Stampin' Up! products.  I love putting all the different stamp bundles together to make a unique card. For this card I've used the Bewitching bundle which includes the Witch Builder punch, Kindness Gnomes with Gnome dies and the sentiment is from the September Paper Pumpkin kit.  I must admit the original idea to use the witch hat with the gnome is not my original idea.  I can't remember where I saw it put together that way.  But I thought it was ingenious.  You can see how I put this card together over on my YouTube channel HERE:



Supplies and Measurements:
Bewitching bundle (includes the Witch Builder punch)
Gnomes dies
Inside Sentiment: Scary Cute
Gingham Cottage DSP 4 x 5 1/4" in orange/black and 3 1/4 x 4 1/2" in black/white pattern
Basic Black 5 1/2 x 8 1/2" scored in the middle at 4 1/4" for card base
Basic White focal layer 3 1/4 x 4 1/2"
Basic White inside layer 3 x 4 3/8" (I used the 3rd largest stitched rectangle die for this)
Basic White approx 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 for stamping and die cutting images.
Blending Brush
Ink Pads in Pumpkin Pie, Momento Tuxedo Black
Stampin' Blends: Pumpkin Pie, Parakeet Party, Blackberry Bliss, Smoke Slate
Paper Snips
Stampin' Cut & Emboss or Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine

Scary Cute Halloween Happiness Card

 The project I have for you today features the Scary Cute bundle by Stampin' Up!  At first, I only purchased the stamp set Scary Cute because I didn't need the coordinating dies!  Oh, how wrong I was.  As you can guess, I ended up ordering the coordinating dies separately (which cost me more in the long run than purchasing the bundle initially would have.)  In any case, for my FB Live on Wednesday night, I made this card and a coordinating treat box.  You can watch how I put them together over on my YouTube channel HERE:



Measurements and Supplies:
Scary Cute bundle 159582 (Scary Cute stamp set & Scary Silhouettes dies)
Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder
Stitched Rectangles dies
Gingham Cottage, Brights 6x6 and Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper (or use what you have) 5 pieces each one 3/4 x 4 1/2"
Basic Gray cardstock 5 1/2 x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
Basic White for inside layer 3 5/8" x 4 7/8"
Basic White for die cutting, approx. 1/4 sheet of cardstock
Basic Black for die cutting 2 3/4 x 3 1/4" approx.
Basic Gray for die cutting 1/4 sheet of cardstock approx.
Ink Pads: Black, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Gorgeous Grape
Stamperatus
Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blend alcohol marker
Wink of Stella glitter pen

I hope you like the project today.  Stay tuned for more with this fun set.  I have a treat box I made using this bundle coming.  To purchase any Stampin' Up! supplies, visit my online store by clicking on the shopping cart in the upper right.  I would be ever so grateful for your business.  Please leave me a comment, I'd love to hear if you were inspired and will be creating something similar of your own.
