It’s Saturday and time for our Create with Connie and Mary Blog Hop. For the next several weeks we will be “Casing the Designer”. Each week we have picked a designer and will select a card she designed. We will use the Colors and Layout of her design and recreate our version using stamps/bundles from the September-December Mini Catalog!

This week we are “Casing Libby Fens”!  Here’s her Halloween card that I chose to CASE.

BAG OF BONES

Super easy…I just replaced the images Libby used with the new Bag of Bones bundle for my Halloween card!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Parakeet Party cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
• A 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Gorgeous Grape cardstock was added to the front.
• The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Pumpkin Pie cardstock was punched twice with the 2″ Circle Punch, then embossed with the Distressed Tile Embossing Folder and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• The skeleton was stamped twice with Memento Black Ink on Smoky Slate cardstock and cut with the Bag of Bones Dies.  They were added inside the circles with Stampin’ Dimensionals
• The bats were cut with the Dies from Basic Black cardstock and adhered to the front.
• Two black Classic Mat Dots were added to the front.
• Boo to you was stamped with Memento Black on Parakeet Party cardstock, then cut with a flag end and adhered.
