With all the new stamp sets and new products sitting on my desk, I love pairing images from different sets together to create fun cards. And we can easily do that with Stampin' Up! products. Today's card paired three stamp sets: Banner Year, Special Someone, and Festive Post Stamp Sets. I used the cute squeaky mouse from Special Someone Stamp Set along with a Black Cat from the Cat Punch to crate a scene where they are looking at a harvest moon together. The Cajun Craze background is embossed with cobwebs, and a few bats circle near the moon. You'll love putting together your own scenes based on the stamp sets you have in your collection.
The basecard for this card is Basic Black Cardstock. Then, a layer of Very Vanilla, and next, a layer of Cajun Craze dry embossed using the Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder. The image layer is Very Vanilla with a Basic Black mat. I created a window sill from a small strip of one of the designs from the Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper. We used to have a die that punched something similar, but with a few snips of my paper snip, I was able to fashion a seat for my black cat and his squeaky friend.
I used the second to the largest circle from the Stitched Shapes Dies to create a moon out of Tangerine Tango--a scrap I found and used before I remembered that this color is a retired color ... (sigh), but it was so perfect with this card that I just decided to use it. I will probably use Mango Melody when I remake this card.
I punched the black cat out of Basic Black Cardstock and popped it up on Dimensionals. I stamped the mouse from Special Someone Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto the Tangerine Tango circle, and filled in the image with a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to turn it into a silhouette.
I stamped the sentiment from the Banner Year Stamp Set and the bats from the Festive Post Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black. Then I used the Dark Basic Black Stampin' Blends to color three Metallic Pearls and added them to the outside of the moon.
You'll enjoy creating your own unique scenes with the Halloween images in your stamp collection. Or order one of the new sets from the Stampin' Up! August-December 2020 Mini Catalog (formerly the Holiday catalog), and get an early start on your Halloween cards today. Add these stamp sets and products to your Shopping List today.
