I have lots for you today….a “Blog Hop” and a chance for “Blog Candy” for today’s project during Preview Week at Create with Connie & Mary. Elizabeth Price at Seeing Ink Spots will have a free tutorial & project for you and she will be offering blog candy right on her blog. Visit Create with Connie & Mary for all the details!
And now on to today’s “The Great Pumpkin Blog Hop””:
This is week #5 of 13 weeks. If you’ve missed any of the weekly blog hops, you can visit Terri’s blog “Goin’ Over The Edge” to catch them all or you can scroll down to the right on my toolbar and click on “The Great Pumpkin Blog Hop”, and you’ll have them all on one page!
Now for my card:
What a super way to use up your DSP pieces. I cut each banner 1 1/2″ long and 3/4″ wide and snipped a “V” at the bottom of each one. If you look closely at the rope that they are all hanging from, I embroidered those by hand. I first paper pierced using a template from the “Essentials Paper Piercing Pack” and then used “Lucky Limeade Baker’s Twine” and created a “back stitch”:
Card Supplies:
- Cardstock: Basic Black, Lucky Limeade, Whisper White
- DSP: Howlstooth & Scaringbone
- Inks: StazOn Jet Black
- Accessories: Googlies, Lucky Limeade Baker’s Twine
- Stamps: Wicked Cool, Ghoulish Ghouls
- Tools: Scallop Oval Punch, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Paper Snips
You are welcome to come join our “Blog Hop”!
This Halloween card is just the cutest! Love seeing your work at Create with Connie and Mary. Thanks for all your inspiration.
AHHH!! Adorable! I especially LOVE the eye balls on the banner!
This is so fun! I love everything about your card. The banners hanging from your embroidered rope are awesome. I love your choice of patterned papers and the spooky feel that this card evokes…fantastic.
This is super cute! I love the banner – I have lots of bits and pieces of that same dsp – and that rope is PERFECT. I love your card! Thanks for being a part of The Great Pumpkin Blog Hop! I appreciate it (and you!).
Hugs,
Terry
What a super cute card. Love how you made the "rope" for your banner.
