Third Thursdays Blog Hop - Golden Rule Days

Welcome once again to our Third Thursdays Blog Hop! This month our theme for the hop is Golden Rule Days! Our posts will feature projects that have something to do with school! For my project, I am showing a card I recently LEARNED to make...how educational is that?? Lol.
{you'll find Product Purchase Links for current items I've used, below the Blog Roll}

I used items from the Cute Halloween Suite Collection, featuring the Cutest Halloween BUNDLE (stamp set + Halloween Punch) for this card. Depending on what supplies you have, you can color in the images from the stamp set with ink pads, Stampin' Write Markers, or Stampin' Blends. I strategically chose the Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad for the outlines because it does not bleed when used with Stampin' Blends...which is what I chose for coloring. And the black works great for all the sentiments, as well..

However, I did want to stamp the little candy corns with an orange outline, so I also used the Pumpkin Pie Ink Pad (because you cannot use Stampin' Blends to ink up an image you want to stamp). I used the Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends to color in the bottom of each candy corn. Just like the Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad, our Classic Stampin' Pads also do not bleed when colored over with Stampin' Blends.

One reason I chose Stampin' Blends for coloring is because I love the way they add color to the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper. The front of each sheet of this paper collection is printed in color, and the back of each colored sheet is printed in either black & white, or gray & white. You can see how I added the color to the gray & white sheet I used on the left side strip below: skulls are in Old Olive Stampin' Blends, ghosts are in Balmy Blue Stampin' Blends, pumpkins are in Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blends, bats are in Highland Heather Stampin' Blends.

If you look closely at the haunted house paper in the center of the card in the above picture, you can see I colored the little moons with Light Balmy Blue Stampin' Blends. And then you can see on the left panel in the picture below, the paper with the cool black squiggles on it had a white background, but I colored over that with the Dark Highland Heather Stampin' Blends.

I have heard this card called a Pinwheel Card, but I feel like it's kind of more of a Carousel Card to me. The measurements are such that it folds flat, and fits in a Basic White Medium Envelope for mailing! The assembly for the card is not hard at all, but a visual explanation is probably best. I will try to show you that tomorrow in a livestream on my Facebook Business Page, then I'll come back in and drop the video here on this post so you can have the direct link.
