It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge. This month is our annual “Case the Catalog”! We use samples from the catalog to inspire the cards we make! Always fun to see if our design team uses the colors, the layout, the stamp set…or whatever element inspires them.
POTIONS & SPELLS
I love the caldron in this stamp set…and of course the cat!!! I’ve combined them both on today’s card!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Basic Gray cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- Three 1-1/2 x 3-3/4 pieces of Flowering Zinnias Designer Paper were spaced in the background. Some bubbles were stamped with Memento Black Ink on the green panel at the top.
- The caldron, cat and bubbles were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Smoky Slate, Light Basic Black, Lemon Lime Twist and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. They were cut with the dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The bubbles were hand-cut.
- The broomstick was cut with the Die from Pecan Pie cardstock and added to the caldron.
- The sign was stamped on Smoky Slate cardstock and stamped with the greeting in Memento Black Ink. It was cut with the stack of books die and added to the broomstick with a Stampin’ Dimensional on front.
- Some black from the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack was tied in a bow on the handle.
- Three light green Transparent Adhesive Backed Dots were added to the caldron for “bubbles”.
