September Blog Hop Featuring Sheltering Tree and Spooky Cat for Halloween

Hello, my crafty friends. Welcome to the September Paper Crafting Blog Hop! I am participating in this blog hop with fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the United States, Canada and United Kingdom! You might be starting the blog hop right now, or you may be coming from Anastasia Radloff's blog. Welcome one and all.

The theme for our blog hop this month is halloween! I decided to really s-t-r-e-t-c-h my imagination and challenged myself to use a stamp set without a halloween theme. I know you will not believe it, but my cat punch is making another appearance. (Click here to see my card from the June Blog Hop or the August Blog Hop.) The cat punch has been a great investment. It is so versatile.

The Sheltering Tree stamp set is one of my favorite stamp sets from the Annual Catalog. I don't use it often enough. The fence is pieced together with scraps from the Wood Textures 6x6 Designer Series Paper. The sentiment stamp is from the Labels to Love stamp set that was introduced in the Holiday Catalog last year (yes, the bat flying around the moon is fussy cut from the label!). And don't you LOVE the luscious Black satin ribbon (Annual Catalog) and the new Buffalo Check background stamp from the Holiday Catalog!!

I hope you have enjoyed my card today. Leave a comment below with a trail to find you so I can see your creations.

Easy to Make Handmade Card Featuring Animal Outing Stamp Set and Animal Friends Thinlits

Hello, my crafty friends. Hope you enjoyed the August blog hop with fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the United States, United Kingdom and Canada! I had loads of fun creating my pet themed card using Animal Outing Stamp Set.

I have been slacking in posting my projects the last two weeks, but this week I thought I would share a quick card using the rhino from the Animal Outing Stamp Set and the stone image from the Animal Friends Thinlits Dies. This bundle is featured in the Animal Expedition Suite found on p. 27 of the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog.

This card was super easy and will be super easy to recreate. You will see that I used the leaf punch which carried over from last year's Holiday Catalog that was paired with the Painted Harvest stamp set found on p. 139 of the 2018-19 annual catalog. I could have done the peek-a-boo method like my Blog Hop card, however, I decided instead to use the Layering Squares Framelits Dies. If you need any measurements or additional information for recreating this card, please feel free to message me.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! Leave a comment below with a trail to find you so I can see your creations.
