Stampin' Up! Halloween Ideas using Owl Builder Punch

Good Morning!

Today I bring you two Halloween Ideas using the fabulous Owl Builder Punch which is so versatile and fun! I have just been playing with the shapes to create a few Halloween creatures for a card.

 With the bat I punched out a 1-3/8" circle and used the 1" circle to create the shaped part of the wings. I added the face with the white gel pen and googly eyes.

 With the monster I punched the body out in gumball green and the hearts in tangerine tango to create the fun ears. Check back to see more fun "monsters" this week.

Thanks for looking.

Stampin' Up! Season of Style DSP Christmas Tree Card

Hello and Welcome!

Here is the final instalment of my experimental session using the Season of Style Designer Series Paper Stack from the 2013-2014 Autumn/Winter Catalogue.

This paper is double sided and so with the left over strips I alternated the pattern and torn each piece to create branches for my tree. 
 


I added Gumball Green ink with a sponge to the edges to help convey the tree idea and  I added the glimmer paper decorations using the owl builder punch as I did before. I a carefree and inky way I think this card works and is a good way to use up scraps of paper strips.

Stampin' Up! Tape It Christmas Tree Card

Morning Everyone!

Here is the second instalment of my experimental session using my new Stampin' Up! set - Tape It. This is a stamp set that looks like WASHI TAPE! So exciting :)

So I experimented with the stamps, Old Olive & Gumball Green ink and the Season of Style Designer Series Paper Stack from the 2013-2014 Autumn/Winter Catalogue.

So my problem with before (see Tuesday's post) was the overall image did not seem tree like - as in shaped. I decided to use the scrap pieces to make a torn triangle point and taped the paper down to use as a mask. See below . . . 



Once I had stamped my layers of "tape" I added the glimmer paper decorations using the owl builder punch. .

I was much happier with the overall look of the tree and decided to go a step further.

 

With my next card I decided to make a glimmer tree trunk using the waist coat / chest from the owl builder punch, I cut across the top to keep the lines clean.

I think this tree looks a lot nicer than the other experiments :)

Check back Saturday to see a card make with the leftover DSP scraps!

Stampin' Up! Tape It Season of Style Tree

Hi and Good Morning! 
This last week I have been horribly poorly and so have had an experimental session once I started to feel better.
My new Stampin' Up! set is the Tape It selection which I have wanting since the new catalogue came out. This is a stamp set that looks like WASHI TAPE! So exciting :)

So I experimented with the stamps, Old Olive & Gumball Green ink and the Season of Style Designer Series Paper Stack from the 2013-2014 Autumn/Winter Catalogue.

My first card had a Sassy Salutations Greeting in Real Red and some circles and heart punched in glimmer paper using the owl builder punch. 
I felt this looked cramped and messy and not very tree like.


 

My second card I decided to make an obvious tree trunk at the bottom and added and extra layer of "tape" - still I did not feel this seemed very tree like.

Check back on Thursday for my next lot of experimentation as this developed into something I was happier with :)
Thanks for looking,
Sarah.
