So Many Hellos

I have so many crafty friend birthdays coming up in November that I repeated one of my favorite cards using The Stamp Market's So Mini Hellos bundle.
This little Mini Cooper and all it's parts are so cute!

I used the Scalloped Frame Die, gray cardstock and a little ink blending for the background.  I scattered some  Clear Droplets in the background - those are fun little gems!

Daily Wear Bundle From Concord & 9th

 I'm still playing with the Daily Wear Bundle from the latest Concord & 9th release.  
I love this little letterboard, and the coffee cup and the girl - all of it!




Here is an option to not use the girl or the letterboard and still make a cute card!
This one features the Gingham background stamp  too.




 The background flowers on this card are from the Type Talk Stamp Set.

Halloween Gnome Index Card Rings

Sometimes it is nice to give a trick or treat that is not candy.  So that is when I pull out the handy dandy index cards and binder rings and create cute Halloween Gnome Index Card Rings!


I used the Just Brew It Die from Reverse Confetti for the coffee cup shape.  I cut about 12 pages of index cards for the inside, you can get two from one card.  I stamped the Halloween Gnomes on the front, colored with Copic markers and put them all together with an Multi-purpose ring.  
When they are tiny like this, they are called Multi-purpose rings, if they were bigger they would be called binder rings.





Pretty cute, huh, for the non candy Halloween treats!

Felt Flower Witches Hats

Remember this hat when I showed you the fall decor in my home?  Today I have additional photos to share of the witch hats I made.  
I love making paper flowers and felt flowers and literally could do this 24 hours a day!




This is not a how to video, but a before and after .  All these were made with dies, mostly from Spellbinders and are pretty simple to put together.


I used a dessert plate and a dinner plate to trace for the brim.  Cut it out of chipboard and covered it with wool blend black felt.  All flowers are wool blend felt too.  For the top I cut a cone shape (I found a pattern on Pinterest) and glued it closed,  glued it to the brim and then adhered the flowers and feathers.










Scary Good Savings at Spellbinders now until October 31st.

Coffee Blend Turnabout

 I have a couple more ways to use the new  Coffee Blend Turnabout Stamp Set and Dies Bundle from Concord & 9th.
As I was practicing, I had some edges that didn't turn out so well, so I cut the center piece out and then added cardstock strips that matched the colors I used in the Turnabout.  They are pretty colorful for me, I prefer much more muted or calm tones, but it was kind of fun experimenting with color.

I made a gift card holder for each one from the Honeybee Stamps Coffee Cup Card Dies.
This is a very fun die - I've about worn it out this past year!


I used several of the new colors of ink and cardstock from The Stamp Market.



Have you tried the Turnabout stamps?  They are so cool.  You do need a stamp positioner to use them for the entire turnabout part, but you can also just use it as one impression.
