Welcome back to another 2015-16 Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team blog hop. Every once in a while, Stampin' Up! throws an extra goodie in our Artisan box. This time they sent us the Jar of Haunts stamp set. But wait; I don't really do a lot of Halloween/Trick or Treat projects, so what is a girl to do? I decided to be "thankful" and I focus on Autumn/Thanksgiving instead.
One of the things I love about this stamp set is that it is versatile. With a little help from the greeting in the Paisleys & Posies stamp set, I was able to create this card.
I started by stamping with Archival Basic Black ink on Shimmery White cardstock and then watercolored the background with ink refills and an AquaPainter. The greeting is stamped with VersaMark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
I trimmed down the panel and mounted it with some Basic Black cardstock and then onto a Crumb Cake top-folding card base. I used a little trick that I learned from my friend, Amy O'Neil and removed the white backing from the White Perfect Accents and then attached them to the card with the Fine Tip Glue Pen. Did you know that Stampin' Up! posts Tips and Tricks by the Artisan Design Team on Instagram each Tuesday? Just go to Instagram and search for #ADTTipsAndTricks.
If you are already going through the hop, you should have just arrived here from visiting my very good friend, Cindy Schuster. When you leave here you will travel on to visit the very talented Inge Groot. You will be amazed at all the fabulous projects created by the Artisan Design Team so be sure to visit everyone on the team.
I WOULD LOVE TO BE YOUR DEMONSTRATOR!
If you are in the United States and need a demonstrator, then you can order your supplies in my online store here.
Have a blessed day!
