Happy Halloween

Tomorrow is Halloween. This is my last Halloween card series. I wanted to make a spooky feeling.

I die cut the bare tree and bat on the black cardstock and witch on the white cardstock. I added the deep purple color on the witch.

I stamped the mice under the bare tree by black ink. I sponged the black color to all pumpkin pie color cardbase.

Cimbing Orchid -- Enjoy Today

Today I made this orchid flower card by using Stampin Up climbing orchid stamp bundle.

I stamped the orchid on the whisper white cardstock and die cut them out. I also stamped the same orchid on the vellum paper and embossed by clear embossing powder. And die cut it out.

I used the multi medium matte glue them together. After ink color met multi medium glue, the ink would spread out. Also add the vellum over the cardstock will make the flower pop up.

I used the ourdailybreaddesigns' circle scallop rectangle die to get the background frame. And I added some sequins on the card clear water drops on the flowers.

Gold embossed watercolor flowers


When I received this large stamp set, I had no idea how to use it. I left it over a while. Today I got some ideas. I thought it was not too bad. I like the watercolor result. Hope you like it too.

I water colored this card twice. First time, I wet all paper and tapped the different colors to the position that I want to stamp flowers on. I heated to dry.

I stamped the flowers and embossed by gold embossing powder.  Then I water colored second time. This time I focused on the flowers.

I bought this beautiful flower stamp from 7 Kids Crafting Supply Store. Recently  they sold out this stamp set. They have one very similar one, I will link it below.

Vellum sentiment that I bought from local Hobby Lobby store.

I will enter this card to 7 kids craft monthly challenge.  I am so glad my card Elephant thank you card  was picked top 3 for September challenge.

Halloween card series -- Witch Hats

Halloween Monday is here. I decided to use Spooky cat stamp set again. I like this stamp set and already used it to make many cards. But until now I still didn't use the witch cat yet. So today I chose the witch cat to make my Halloween card.

I stamped the witch hat on the post it to make a mask. Then stamped witch hat on the card using mask to layer three hats together.

For trick or treat sentiment, I stamped twice to make a shallow. I also stamped the lanes under the hats that looked like ground.

I sponged the elegant eggplant color all around the card and light yellow around the hat. Stamped the tiny dots on the card by retired Itty Bitty background stamp. I got it from eBay. This is a simple card. 

Next week will be last card of Halloween series.

Autumn tree


Once year autumn 🍂 is here. Autumn 's feeling is getting more and more. But leaves 🍃 are still green.  Maybe one day they quickly drop after a fall rain.  When I sat front of window, I imaged the autumn in my mind. Then it came to my paper.

I took out watercolor paper. I stamped tree branch and two colors leaves. I used wet water color brush to active all of them. I drew the mountain and ground. I stamped tree trunk again to sharpe image.  I did the same way to grass. But instead of stamping again. I used the Stampin Up blend pen to add color on grass.

After dry, I watered all blank space for sky. Then I watercolored very light blue. Stamped sentiment and some dropping leaves. My card was done.

Beautiful ballerina


I just bought this beautiful ballerina dies from Poppystamps. They are so pretty. My daughter Belle learned ballet from kindergarten. She loves to play ballet. So I thought this is just right card for her.

It was beautiful color.  My post After Rain used part of the background.  Today I picked up other part of this background. I still had leftover. I felt I made a whole piece of paper by spraying color it worth. Every time I only need trim the part that matches my project. It's easy and simple.

Snowy Night -- Christmas card


It's still around 90 degree outside. I wear T-shirt and short, but I made a snowy Christmas card. What's amazing!

I made this shiny and snowy night sky first. I sponged little melon mambo, so saffron and lemon twist color on the card. Then covered by pacific point and night of navy. At the end of sponging, I also added the elegant eggplant at the corner. Splashed the some water drops, dry by tissue paper. I dropped some white paint on the card. But after dry, I felt too dull. Then I used the white gel pen to add some white dots on the card. It popped up. The last step was I sprayed the shimmer on the whole card.

When I was waiting the night background dry, I die cut the church and house. This die is from Stampin Up! Hearts come home bundle. But you can only buy dies. Very cute dies. I colored them by my new favorite Chameleon markers.

This time I didn't added the yellow paper on the back of church and house. I left them dark because I wanted to show a snowy silent night. Looked like everyone fell into sleep and just waited Santa came.

I add a very light shadow on the snow ground and using the extra fine diamond glitter to make snow around trees, building and ground. I stamped sentiment by night of navy first, and then embossed by clear embossing powder. Misti is very useful here. I mounted it on the night background by 3D dimension.

Halloween cards series -- Spooky Cat shaking card


I thought I could make a shaking card by cat punch. This fall Stampin Up! released this very cute spooky cat punch that matching spooky cat stamp set. I listed the shopping link below.

I cut this 5x5 black card and punched the cat in the below center. I embossed the trick or treat on the left upper corner.

I made 5.5x5.5 elegant eggplant cardbase. I checked the cat position on the cardbase and glued the tiny ghost that from Neat and Tangle Halloween sequins on the card. I didn't want the ghost move. Also I glued one big pumpkin that from the same sequins on the outside black card. I added the new Nuvo glow in the dark drops on the right upper of card. But I didn't see it worked well this time. I may try them again.

Used the foam tape the mount the card on the cardbase. It's simple shaking card. My daughter loved this. She wanted I gave to her for Halloween.
