Harvest Hues Ephemera Happy Halloween Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features pre cut images (stickers) from the Harvest Hues Mix & Match Ephemera Pack.  This assortment is filled with images to take us right through the fall season, giving us easy pieces to group together however we choose to create fabulous cards.  The Happy Halloween message is from the Oh My Fright stamp set.


To add a little extra to the front panel, I cut 1/4" strips of a Darling Duckling patterned print from the Valley In Bloom Designer Series Paper (DSP).

Techniques include simple stamping.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

This ephemera pack has adhesive on the back, so all you have to do is peel off the protective backing and they are ready to adhere to your project.  I did find, however, that it is easier to peel the backing off by removing it from the score line in the middle back of the sticker.  When I tried removing the backing from an edge of the sticker, it was challenging.  More often than not the adhesive or adhesive and a layer of paper wanted to come along.  I found using the piercing end of my Take Your Pick tool to catch the backing along the score line worked well.

======================================================================

Gather Your Supplies:

  • Oh My Fright stamp set
  • Harvest Hues Mix & Match ephemera pack
  • Basic White cardstock 
    • card base  5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored & folded at 4-1/4

  • 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls
  • Take Your Pick
  • Paper Trimmer
=============================================================

Moonlit Flora Double Dutch Gate Fun Fold

Greetings! 

Today's card features prints from the elegant Moonlit Flora Designer Series Papers.  These papers are so gorgeous with the nighttime deep, rich tones, and set against the Berry Burst cardstock for a burst of bright, they are stunning.  The coordinating Fern & Flora bundle provides heartfelt sentiments in a beautiful, flowing font.  Bringing it all together in a Double Dutch Gate Fun Fold allows this card to be displayed in all its glory.

Techniques include a fun fold and die cutting.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

Fun folds are a step up from a standard card and allow you and your recipient to display them in an eye catching way.  A fun fold such as this Double Dutch Gate fun fold is sturdy so the card stands on it's own, and invites you to open it up to see what it says on the inside.  It's a great way to showcase multiple prints and the Moonlit Flora prints provide numerous options.  With only a 3 x 4" piece required as the focal point, one 12 x 12 sheet of DSP gives you material for a whole pack of cards.

======================================================================

Radiant Foils & Sunflower Fields Best Day Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features a print from the caramelly colored Radiant Foils as the card base,  complementing the cheerful prints from the Sunflower Fields Designer Series Papers.  The Radiant Foils are a one sided print, on a nice sturdy white paper, so they work beautifully for card bases.  Adding a sentiment with a copper embossing powder continues to carry through the metallic glow of the foils.


Techniques include die cutting and heat embossing.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

When working with these Radiant Foils, handle with care.  This foil is a thin layer on top, and easily shows scratches and smudges.  The adhesive also sticks strongly to the foil, so placement needs to be correct the first time, as it is very difficult to reposition.

To press the score line, I placed the card under a sheet of paper before sliding my bone folder along the edge to crease, as I didn't want to chance scratching or dulling the finish near the crease.

It's a beautiful specialty paper and as I mentioned in my opening paragraph, works great for card bases.  I'll admit, in my 20+ years of stamping, I think this is the first time I've realized the benefit of a one-sided paper as the card base, when it's a thick paper as this one is.  Better late than never, right! 😲😄 

======================================================================

Gather Your Supplies:

  • Cutest Crew stamp set
  • Radiant Sunflowers stamp set (for inside message)
  • Stylish Shapes dies
  • Radiant Foils Specialty Paper
    • card base  5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored & folded at 4-1/4
  • Daffodil Delight cardstock
    • 2-3/4 x 5/8 banner die cut
  • Sunflower Fields Designer Series Paper (DSP)
    • 1-1/2 die cut squares of 3 assorted prints
    • 5-1/2 x 1 strip for inside
  • Versamark Ink Pad
  • Copper Embossing Powder
  • Stampin' Dimensionals
  • Adhesive-backed Metallic Gems
  • Paper Trimmer
  • Heat Tool
  • Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
=============================================================
Here's How It's Made:

Arrange three die cut DSP squares on card front, adhere, popping up middle square with Stampin' Dimensionals.  Ink "Have the best day" with Versamark, stamp onto Daffodil Delight cardstock, sprinkle with Copper embossing powder, shake off excess, melt with Heat Tool to set.  Die cut with banner die, adhere under middle square with Stampin' Dimensionals.


Embellish with Gold Metallic Gems.


Here's what the inside looks like:


Ink message with Versamark, stamp in upper center area of inside of card.  Sprinkle with Copper embossing powder, shake off excess, melt with Heat Tool to set.  Adhere strip of DSP along right edge of card.
