BOO!

Hi friends – Happy Hump Day! Wasn’t it just Friday, lol? Blink and nearly another week is gone! I had a spare few minutes yesterday afternoon and made another double lower gate fold. I shared one nearly a week ago for a design team project which featured a card within a card. As promised in that post (HERE), I’m back with another version featuring a tag in a pocket. I’m on a short break from my Keep It Simple design team duties but wanted to play with the new Boo To You Collection, so I used papers, stamps and dies for this card along with the KIS Cuts Tags #1 and Mango Ribbon. I sure do LOVE how this turned out – it’s always fun to add extra little elements to bring a fun fold to life, and that’s exactly what I did with the tag!

I cut the card base and pocket from CutCardStock Lessebo Pitch Black cardstock along with layering panels from assorted prints in the Boo To You 6×9 Collection Pack. I stamped some images from the Spooky Cute Collection Stamps on Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock, colored them with alcohol markers, and cut them with the coordinating Happy Haunting Outline Dies. I dug through my Halloween embellishment stash and found a spider sequin that I used on one of the die cuts.

I used a tag die from the KIS Cuts Tags #1 Dies which fit perfectly in the pocket. I used Stampin’ Up circle punches to punch a thumb notch into the top of the pocket and layering panel.

I embellished the tag with another print from the Collection Pack, a tiny tag from the same tag die set (which I stamped on in orange ink), a tiny ball chain from my stash, and some Mango ribbon. And, of course, I stamped a fun sentiment from the same collection stamps in black ink.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;)
