We Create Blog Hop - Never Too Early



Welcome to the SEPTEMBER 2024 "Never Too Early" Blog Hop! We generally hop on the first day of every month, and this month our theme will focus on things that are coming up soon, like the holidays! My project today once again features products from our most recent Online Exclusives release, and more specifically the Potions & Spells BUNDLE. {scroll down below the Blog Roll for ALL product purchase links}


I was thinking I would create a Christmas project, based on some of our NEW stuff coming out on September 4th, but I didn't get my supplies preordered early enough to do that. Plus, I love Halloween, and it sneaks up on me every year! And, speaking of "never too early", I should have started on this blog post a LOT earlier...because the past week was a bit of a mess, including getting a new fiber installation for our internet. I should have known that wouldn't go to plan!

I tried to keep my project simple since I'm late posting, but it does use the Potions & Spells Dies that coordinate with the stamp set. It's hard to see on the picture, but the cauldron is popped out a little bit. You can get that look by turning your die cut over onto our Silicone Craft Sheet, and rubbing with the wide end of the Bone Folder near the edges. You might want to use the pointy end of the Bone Folder across the rim, and on the feet. Then you can add a second layer of Stampin' Dimensionals in the middle of the back when you adhere it, so it sticks out a little more. The Iconic Celebrations 6"x6" Designer Series Paper really carries the background on this card. It's meant to be fireworks, but I think it also works well to give the look of bubbles popping. 

Stampin' Supplies: Potions & Spells BUNDLE (stamp set + coordinating dies*), Basic Black Cardstock, Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock, Gorgeous Grape Cardstock and Ink Pad, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad, Iconic Celebrations Designer Series Paper, Blending Brushes, Iridescent Foil Gems, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin' Dimensionals, Silicone Craft Sheet, Bone Folder, Paper Snips, Paper Trimmer, Simply Shammy (for cleaning photopolymer stamps), and Grid Paper. Don't forget your Basic White Medium Envelopes if you want to mail your card. *You will need a die-cutting machine, like the Stampin' Cut & Emboss, to use the dies...they should all fit in the Mini machine.
