Halloween Truck

Posted on September 16, 2023 10:00 PM by Julie Comment

A colorful, easy, Halloween card w/ a cute truckload of trick or treaters. Basically a 1 layer card w/ a bright brayered background.

It’s my turn to host the Featured Stamper Challenge (FS867) & a big congrats to Brian! He has a terrific gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the bright bg & frame layout, but used different images, used a smaller image for the center & made it smaller & my frame is stamped instead of an actual frame.

My card started w/ a leftover background I made for another card. I only used a strip of the bottom part so I had this whole piece left. I thought the colors were great for Halloween so I colored the little image, die cut & added it to a white square. For the black road, I used a small portion of a mountain die cut. I liked the way it narrowed behind them like a road would. I used a set of freehand borders on the top & sides & I already had the texture strip bg stamped across the bottom.

The image square is popped up a bit & I added some Halloween colored stickles to the centers of the pattern on the bottom.
Here are the Copics I used:

An easy, coffee themed card w/ a cute little owl & some pretty coffee paper. Perfect for a coffee loving friend or family member.

A big congrats to Annette, the newest Featured Stamper (FS865)! She has a sweet gallery & I chose THIS card for my inspiration. I kept most of the layout but flipped it, changed the images, dies & colors.

My card has a coffee theme & a cute little coffee loving owl. After coloring & die cutting him, I die cut the ivory circle, stamped the greeting on it then die cut a larger circle of designer paper to go behind it. I die cut the lighter paper then lined up where the darker circle would go & used the same die on the left edge of this circle. I trimmed off the edge of the ivory circle to fit. The open leaf greenery was die cut out of a dk metallic bronze and placed around the the edges of the circles.

The greeting circle & owl were popped up.

These are the Copics I used (minus the greens):

Merry Bright Animals

An easy, cute Christmas card w/ adorable little critters. Quick to make since the animals are already colored & are included in this paper. Matching dies make it so easy.

We are visiting The Makers Keep for the Inspiration Challenge (IC923) this week where I found THIS cute picture. The little animals, colors & tree reminded me of the ones in this paper.

Since all the images are pre-colored & have matching dies, it was pretty quick & easy to put this card together. I die cut the white top w/ all the windows & added 2 more behind it to pop it up a bit. I used one of the white circles for the greeting, then replaced the row of white circle inserts along the bottom w/ green die cut circles. The top window was replaced w/ another piece of the paper from the same paper pad. Then all of the critters were added.

The little animals & tree were popped up just a bit.
