Hi Crafty Friends,
Today, I have a Haunted House Card using Poppy Stamps Dies to encourage you to join the Poppy Stamp October Challenge: Get Your Spook On. I turned the Poppy Stamps Winter House Pop-Up Easel Die and turned it into a Haunted House. I added the Poppy Stamps Lovable Witch coming out the front door and Poppy Stamps Gentle Ghosts in the windows. Can't wait to see what you create for the challenge! Enter HERE!

Nordic Stockings

Hi Crafty Friends,
It's time to stock up on your Holiday Cards so you aren't struggling to get them done in December. I have two Christmas cards this month to inspire you featuring the Poppy Stamps Nordic Wonderland Collection. These stockings are just so elegant and sweet with their ruffled tops and patterned bottoms.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you still have a stocking?
A: Me? Yes! I have one with my name on it at my house and my parents still stuff my childhood stocking

Step 1: I used white embossing paste to stencil my background with Poppy Stamps Nordic Motif Stencil. Then I added the Nordic Wintertide borders across the center of my card

 

Step 2: I die cut the Nordic Stockings from the Poppy Stamps Rainbow Reflections Mirror 6x6 Paper Pad and Memory Box Yuletide Plaid 6x6 Paper Pad. Then, I arranged them across the center of the card.

Step 3: I finished the card with the Poppy Stamps Be Merry Sentiment Die in the left corner.
