Welcome to this month's Amy's Inkin' Krew Blog Hop! This month the Krew is celebrating "Halloween Fun!" I decided to use a traditional Halloween stamp set along with a Christmas stamp set for a fun play on Hanzel & Gretel.
The card front is a panel of Basic Gray. I placed the Basic Gray on my Stamparatus and stamped the trick or treaters from Stampin' Up Scary Cute Stamp Set using Mementos Tuxedo Black ink. Since this stamp is a silhouette, I stamped it several times to get a good solid images.
I cut a thin layer of Basic Gray and freehand cut small hills.
Using my Stamparatus, I stamped a gingerbread house on a piece of Basic White using Crumb Cake ink. I die cut the image using Stampin' Up Gingerbread House Dies. I stamped the scrolls using Mementos Tuxedo Black ink on the gingerbread house. I stamped the windows using Crushed Curry ink. The door is Gorgeous Grape ink.
I stamped gum drops, lollipops and the roof using Gorgeous Grape, Garden Green, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry ink. I die cut each image.
I adhered the roof to the gingerbread house using liquid adhesive. I adhered the house to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. I adhered the gum drops and lollipop to the card front.
I stamped the sentiment from Scary Cute Stamp Set with Mementos Tuxedo Black ink. I die cut the sentiment. I die cut a moon and bats using Scary Silhouette Dies. I adhered the die cuts with liquid adhesive.
I die cut a piece of Gray Granite to create the pathway in front of the house.
I adhered the card front to a Gorgeous Grape mat and adhered the layers to a Pumpkin Pie card base.
The inside is a panel of Basic White card stock with the sentiment, bats and a trick or treater with Mementos Tuxedo Black ink. I adhered the Basic White to a Gorgeous Grape mat.Thanks so much for hopping by! Up next, Carol Buckalew
I love die sets. I am always excited when I see a coordinating stamp and die set. So I can not express how excited I was to see Stampin' Up has released new die sets to match stamp sets in the 2022-23 Annual Catalog as well as July-December 2022 Mini catalog. These sets are available only the month of September or while supplies last so don't delay.
