3-D Friday - Halloween/Fall Gift Bag

Happy Friday!!  I am not very fond of Halloween ghouls and goblins, but I do like to make treats for my kids teachers at Halloween.  I tend to go with a more Fall Festival theme.  Here is what I came up with today.  It was inspired by a card  that I saw on Pinterest made by Kim Tolley.  

 
 
Card Recipe:
  • Randomly stamp the right side and lower portion of  the 4 3/4 x 6 1/2 Glassine Bag with Crumb Cake, Wild Wasabi, and Tangerine Tango inks using the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set.
  • On a 4 x 4 scrap of Tangerine Tango use the same stamp to with Crumb Cake and Tangerine Tango ink.  Die cut with leaf die from the Beautiful Branches Thinlet set.   Die cut similar sized oval in Tangerine Tango and  put behind leaves with small amount of Tombow glue.
  • Stamp two leaves from the Thoughtful Branches stamp set on a scrap of Wild Wasabi cardstock using Wild Wasabi ink.  Die cut with leaf die from Beautiful Branches Thinlet set.  Attached to Tangerine Tango leaves.
  • Use Chocolate Chip ink to stamp the tree trunk from the Thoughful Branches stamp set onto a small scrap (2 x 2 or smaller) of Crumb Cake cardstock.  Then cut out a small stem and attach to the leafy pumpkin.
  • Cut a few thin strips of Crumb Cake and Wild Wasabi cardstock to make curly cues and attach to pumpkin.
  • Stamp the "For You" sentiment from the Thoughtful Branches stamp set with Chocolate chip on to a scrap of Crumb Cake card stock.  Them use same Gorgeous Grunge stamp to add some background with Crumb Cake ink.  Punch out using 1 1/4 circle punch.
  • Attach to "Pumpkin" to bag using dimensional and attach sentiment to "Pumpkin" with a dimensional.

DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #192 - Color My World

It's time for the weekly DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  Today it is a  "Color My World" challenge.

 
 
 


This card has flowers and a bit of bling, all a girl needs on her birthday.  I love the Irresistibly Floral Speciality DSP, you can leave it white or add color with one of our wonderful Stampin Pads.  This was so easy I cut the DSP and sponged on Sweet Sugarplum -- one of the new in-colors.  The embossed flowers and swirls are stunning.  I added a bit of Wink of Stella on the jewels from the  July 2016 What A Gem Paper Pumpkin kit.  I participate in many swaps each month and this card is made for an upcoming sketch swap on Swap-Bot.  Tomorrow this gem is going to Florida.
Card Recipe:

Card Stock: Mint Macaron, Island Indigo, and Whisper White
Stamp/s: What a Gem ( July 2016 Paper Pumpkin)
Ink: Island Indigo, Sweet Sugarplum, Mint Macaron
Punches: Banner Triple Punch
Accessories: Tombow Mono Glue, Dimensionals,  Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
