Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
I’m playing along with the ColourQ #312 challenge with a CAS Reverse Confetti card.
I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from the Spooky Sentiments set on orange cardstock. On a white cardstock panel I stamped the fence and bats from Spooky Cuties. For the darker orange, I die cut the tree branches from Branch Out several times and adhered them for extra depth.
Welcome to the first day of the Reverse Confetti Happy Fall-idays – an event to provide ideas and inspiration for the holidays! Today we’re featuring Halloween projects! At the end of the post I’ve provided a list of everyone from the Reverse Confetti Design Team sharing ideas for Halloween.
My first project features Halloween treat packaging. I’ve created three different tags in orange, green, black and white.
For the tag base, I used the Thanks Tag Confetti Cuts die. I stamped and heat-embossed images and sentiments from Spooky Cuties and Spooky Sentiments.
The tags are tied to tiny cauldrons filled with chocolate eyeballs!
My second project is a Trick or Treat party banner created with one of the Layered Banner Duo Confetti Cuts die.
I created the letters on my computer and cut them out with one of the Circles ‘n Scallops Confetti Cuts. I attached the letters to banners cut from patterned paper with the Layered Banner Duo Confetti Cuts die.
I punched holes on either side of the top of the banners and strung them with chunky twine!
There’s lots of inspiration being shared today by the design team, check it out!
I’m sharing another CAS Halloween card. This one is created with the Penny Black 51-077 Eeek! die.
I cut the BOO (Penny Black 51-077 Eeek!) multiple times from black cardstock and a couple of times from green cardstock. Each BOO is double thick. I also cut the sentiment from white cardstock for the insides of the “o” letters and added black circles cut with a hole punch.
Have you seen this month’s Sketch for You to Try at Reverse Confetti?
I created a Halloween card using the sketch as my starting point.
Here’s my take on the sketch, featuring Spooky Sentiments and Spooky Cuties.
I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment on orange cardstock and cut it with one of the dies in the Layered Banner Duo Confetti Cuts set. I stamped and heat-embossed the ghost from Spooky Cuties three times and fussy cut them. I cut a circle in a rectangular panel to frame the ghosts and sentiment.
I hope you’ll play along! Head on over to link up your card on the Reverse Confetti Blog for your chance to win a $20 Reverse Confetti gift certificate and the title of ‘Fetti Fave!
I’m playing along with ColourQ #311 using Penny Black stamps and dies. Here’s my take on the challenge colors with a CAS Halloween card:
I cut the BOO (Penny Black 51-077 Eeek!) and haunted house (Penny Black 51-073 Haunted Hollow) from black cardstock, twice each for extra depth. I backed the house with the Wisteria Wonder cardstock. The moon was cut from Kiwi Kiss and the rectangle from Tangerine Tango. I stamped a sentiment from Penny Black 30-185 Halloween Critters in Versafine ink on the card base (the font has a scribble that adds a bit of spooky!).
