Have a Hoot Bundle by Stampin' Up!

20200826_153516 (2)

What's a "two-fer?" A two-fer is ONE cut that creates TWO cards. Such as by using both the positive and negative die cut shapes! These cards started with one sheet of Whisper White Card Stock 4-1/4" x 3-1/2".  The three window shapes that were removed from the die cutting were recycled on the Halloween card saving TIME!!

20200826_153610

These ADORABLE cards were created by my friend and team member, Barb Faulkner. She used Have a Hoot Bundle #155208 and Stampin' Blends for color.

 

20200826_153641

 

SAVE TIME by making your Halloween cards and Christmas cards at the same time! Thanks for sharing this great idea with charming results, Barb!! Love it!!

How to use Snowfall Accents Puff Paint

20191026_152724

When I first saw the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint #150691 in the Holiday Catalog, I thought of these Cotton stalks in the Country Home Stamp Set #147678. It's the PERFECT touch of fluffy texture!

20191026_152822

The little bottle of magic, puffs up like: snow, cotton, lamb's wool, clouds or whipped cream!!

20191026_154701

Experiment and practice before using this product on your finished design. For larger areas, you can apply the puffing liquid right from the tip of the bottle. I wanted small cottony puffs on my card so this worked well for me;

    1. SHAKE bottle.

    2. Apply a small puddle on scrap paper.

    3. Use a toothpick to dot liquid in small areas. Use less than you think because it will expand.

    4. Heat with a Heat Tool to puff. It grows as it puffs! LOTS OF FUN!!

20191026_152913
