Spooky Halloween paper tearing technique card

For today's card I wanted to share a Halloween card using paper tearing in the design.  This is the card I came up and I do love how it turned out.  I hope you give this technique a try.  It makes for some extra interest and dimension on your cards and it also shows both sides of the paper!  It's a win-win.  To see how I've put this card together, be sure to fly on over to my YouTube channel to see the video tutorial on how it's done.

 Well, we’ve reached the end of the week for my featured product bundle of Potions and Spells.  I wanted to use some of the "bonus" dies that came in the die set, along with the stamps for my card today.  I was very pleased with how the cauldron looked.  I wasn't sure I was going to like it without the stamps.  I've also used some additional new product from the newly released scrapbooking brochure with the Designer Series Paper.  If you would like to see how I put my card together, you can watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.

Scary Cute and Scary Silhouettes Rectangular treat box

 Happy Saturday everyone!  Today's project is a treat box I designed after having some leftover die cuts and wondering what I could do with them.  So, I sat down to do a little math and figure out this box template.   I hope you like the result.  I know I love how they turned out and the best part is you can get three box bases from one sheet of 8 1/2 x 11" cardstock!  You can see how I put the box together by going over to you YouTube channel HERE:





Supplies and Measurements: 
Scary Cute bundle 159582 (Scary Cute stamp set & Scary Silhouettes dies)
Basic Gray cardstock 3 5/8 x 8 1/2" for box base
    Score on 3 5/8" side at 1" on each side
    Score on 8 1/2" side at 1" and 3 3/4" each side
Basic Gray cardstock 2 pieces approx. 2 3/4 x 3 1/2 for die cutting
Basic White cardstock for die cutting approx 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 for die cutting and stamping
Basic Black cardstock approx 2 3/4 x 3 1/2" for die cutting
Ink pads in Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Gorgeous Grape and Black
Blending Brushes
Glitter Washi Tape (put two strips on scrap cardstock and die cut bats if desired)

In the video, I show you all the different candies I put in these boxes that will fit.  Of course, I'm sure there are others.  Please share what you put in yours when you leave me a comment.  I'd love to hear what you are using them for.  To order Stampin' Up! supplies, click on the shopping cart in the upper right corner.  I'd be every so grateful for your business.

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.
