Critter Country Paper Focused Card with Yan

Hey crafty friends! It's Yan here. Happy October 1st! Autumn is officially here, and I'm so excited to bring a little cozy, spooky fun to your screen today. Grab a warm cup of tea, and let's jump into crafting!

​To kick things off, I stamped these adorable images using the Too Cute To Spook Stamps onto Neenah Solar White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Next, I brought them to life using my Copic markers. Once the coloring was complete, I lined up the coordinating dies Too Cute To Spook Dies to cut everything out flawlessly.

COPIC COLORS:
Spider: W4, W5
Cat in Vampire Costume: E30, E31, E35, E47, R30, TR61, YR65, YR68
Pumpkins: E35, E41, Y00, Y15, Y19, YG03, YG17, YG63, YR61

​For the backdrop, I cut a panel of the sweet pumpkin pattern from the Critter Country 6x6 Cardstock to layer directly onto my card base. To make my main focal point pop, I die-cut a dark circle using the Zig Zag Circles Dies and heat embossed the 'Trick or Treat!' sentiment along with the delicate spiderweb details in crisp white.

Finally, I arranged and popped up the sweet critter, pumpkins, and little spiders using foam tape. Adding that extra dimension really made this little haunted pumpkin patch come alive!

​And there you have it—a cute and spooky card to kick off October! Happy crafting, everyone!

Too Cute To Spook Card with Yan

Hey crafty friends! It's Yan here, and today I'm excited to share a spooky-cute Halloween card featuring Sunny Studio Stamps' Too Cute To Spook stamps. Halloween crafting is always one of my favorite times of the year, and I couldn't resist creating a moody pumpkin patch scene with these dressed-up critters. Grab a treat, and let's craft together!

​To kick things off, I stamped these cute images onto Neenah Solar White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Next, I brought them to life using my Copic markers. Once the coloring was finished, I lined up the coordinating Too Cute To Spook Dies to cut everything out flawlessly.

​COPIC COLORS:
Haunted House: BV13, V20, W5, W7, Y00, Y15, YR61, YR68
Bear in Witch Costume: BV13, E30, E43, E47, R30, V20, W1, W5, W7, YR61, YR65, YR68
Cat in Vampire Costume: BV13, E30, E31, E35, R30, W1, W5, W7, YR65, YR68
Bear in Ghost Costume: E30, E31, E47, R30, W1, W5, YR65, YR68
Pumpkins: YG03, YG63, YR61, YR65, YR68
Bat: R30, W1, W5, W7

​For the backdrop, I ink-blended a panel with Twisted Citron, Crushed Olive, Wilted Violet and Ground Espresso Distress Oxide inks to create a glowing night sky. To add a bit of atmospheric texture, I flicked a few clean water droplets over the blended background and let it dry. Once it was completely dry, I stamped the haunted trees in dark gray ink to give it that perfect misty silhouette, and added a dark grass border along the bottom.

​To assemble the scene, I white heat-embossed the 'Happy Halloween!' sentiment right in the center. Then came my favorite part—pop-out dimension! I used 3D foam tape to arrange the haunted house, pumpkins, and costumed critters all over the panel to give it a fun 3D feel.

​And there you have it! A delightfully spooky card ready for Halloween. Thank you so much for stopping by today. Happy crafting!

Too Cute To Spook Halloween Cards with Mendi

Hello and welcome! This is Mendi here today, popping in to share some fall scene cards featuring our Too Cute To Spook Stamps with dramatic inky backgrounds.

My first card pairs the kitty in the pumpkin from the Scaredy Cat Stamps with the haunted house, tree, bat, and "Happy Halloween!" greeting from the Too Cute To Spook Stamps. I inked my entire background using Picked Raspberry distress ink to create my dramatic background with the pink moon and purple sky. I then cut a circle mask using the Stitched Circle Large Dies to cover where I wanted my moon to go before inking around the mask with Wilted Violet distress ink. When I had the background adequately inked. I cut random holes in my mask with scissors to ink the craters in my moon, before inking again with a smaller brush using a darker layer of the Picked Raspberry. I then spritzed the entire piece with water.. When it was dry, I added white stars with my gel pen and stamped the spooky tree from the set four times around the haunted manor with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink. Lastly, I cut the stitched hillside from black cardstock using the Slimline Nature Border Dies, heat embossed my greeting in white, and added the cat to the foreground.

For my second card showcasing the Too Cute To Spook Stamps, I paired three of the critters in costumes from the set, with the moon from the Scaredy Cat Stamps, the haunted house border and bats from the Fall Scenes Stamps, and the "Happy Halloween" sentiment from the Happy Howl-o-ween Stamps. For my moody cloud background, I started by inking up white cardstock with Salty Ocean Distress Ink and added in some clouds using masks I had cut out using the Fluffy Cloudy Border Dies with Prize Ribbon and then Chipped Sapphire ink along the outside edges. Finally, I layered in clouds cut using the Tulip Path Background Dies, which I colored with those same inks. 

I should note that I originally stamped and cut out the haunted house border using the coordinating dies, but later decided to fussy cut them out, cutting off the trees and fence to make things easy on myself since the other images in the border were pretty straight and easy. However, I then stamped the images again directly onto my background with the nice dark and bold VersaFine Onyx Black Ink so that the trees and fence would be there to just layer my fussy cut image over the top of and have them all seamlessly line up. I could have tried to color around the die-cut images with Copics to match them to my background, like I have done for other cards, but this felt easier, and I think it added extra drama to my scene by not having any white edges.

That wraps up my projects for today. Thanks so much for hanging out with me. I hope I've inspired you to spread a little happiness by sending out a card to someone you love. 💛
