A FESTIVE POST HALLOWEEN

 A FESTIVE POST HALLOWEEN

Hello! Today I have some card ideas to share with you using the Festive Post stamp set. The stamp set can be found on page 63 of the Stampin’ Up! ®️ August-December 2020 Mini Catalog. The stamp set includes images and greetings for Halloween, Christmas, and Valentine’s Day. It, like the Banner Year stamp set, is a great value for all stampers especially for new stampers, as it can be used to create cards for several holidays. 

Here is the card I made with Pumpkin Pie DSP.

This is another slightly different version in Granny Apple Green.

And this is one I made using a base of Basic Gray.

The greeting for this card is from the A Wish For Everything stamp set.

For the greeting I used the Stitched Shapes Die, the second smallest circle, and the largest circle die from the Tasteful Lables Dies.

I used the Banners Pick A Punch to flag the ends of the strip of DSP under the greeting. 

To make this card you will also need

A Basic Black card base cut at 4 1/4” x 11”, scored at 5 1/2” 

Regals 6x6 DSP - Pumpkin Pie (the design with the dots) Cut at 5 1/4” x 4” and 1 piece at 3/4” x 4”

Smoky Slate cardstock cut ay 4 1/4” x 3”

A small scrap of Basic Black and a small scrap of Smoky Slate 

Memento Black Ink

On the 4 1/4” x 3” piece of cardstock stamp the bats image in a random pattern all over the cardstock. 

On the scrap of Smoky Slate stamp the “happy” and the “birthday” using the Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

Die cut the sentiment with the Tasteful Labels die.

Die cut the mat for the greeting from the scrap of Basic Black Using the Stitched Shapes circle die.

To assemble the card adhere the 4” x 5 1/4” DSP to the card base. Center the cardstock with the bats stamped on it on, and adhere it to the DSP.

Now adhere the greeting piece to its Basic Black mat. 

Use the Banner Pick a Punch to flag both ends of the DSP strip

Center and adhere the greeting to the strip 

Using dimensionals attach the greeting piece on the upper hal of the card (refer to photos). 

The card is complete!

Here is a video demonstrating how to make this card:

And for this version of the card I used the Granny Apple Green DSP from the Brights collection. I paired it with Soft Seafoam and the Basic Black. The strip under the greeting was cut from the Rainbow Glimmer Paper found on page 163 of the annual catalog. This  glimmer paper is beautiful! 

Here is another Halloween card I made using the Festive Post stamp set, the Rainbow Glimmer Paper, and the Word Wishes Dies that coordinate with A Wish for Everything stamp set. The background was made by stamping the small stars image in the stamp set using the Champagne Mist Glimmer Paint. 

I hope these cards and Stampin’ Up! products provide you with greatinkspirations.

Until next time...

Stamp Happy!
