Stampin' Up! Art Gallery - Best Wishes Card for April's Creative Stampers Blog Hop

 

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you a card that I made for the Creative Stampers Tutorial Bundle Blog Hop.  The Creative Stampers are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators that I have pulled together for one purpose.  And that purpose was to team up and help each other and out customers create by creating a set of tutorials around one suite, theme, or product.  This way we could inspire everyone with creative ideas.  This month the featured item for the Creative Stampers Tutorial Bundle for April is the Fine Art Floral Suite from the January - June Mini Catalog.  Each month we share even more ideas using the featured products with you as alternative projects to our project for that month's tutorial bundle.

Creative Stampers Blog Hop - Ghoulish Goodies Card



Hello and welcome to my blog; today is a special day.  Today, I am happy to bring to you the first Creative Stampers Blog Hop.  The Creative Stampers are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators that come together each month to bring you the Creative Stampers Tutorial Bundle.  I started the Creative Stampers Tutorial Bundle group a little over a year ago.  I pulled together a group of very talented demonstrators with one goal in mind.  To share the love of crafting with others each month.  Each month we each create a project and write a tutorial that is put together in a bundle that we share with our customers, and teams.  For our customers is a Thank you for your orders for our teams and customers it's a way for us to help encourage you to keep stamping and creating.   So, I have wanted to have a blog hop with these talented individuals for a long time and we have finally made that happen.  In this blog hop we will be sharing our alternative projects each month for the items that we have each created for our tutorials.  You will get a chance to see a sneak peek of the project that we designed in the tutorial but you will also get to see a alternative project that we came up with.  Here's a look at my alternative for this month.  


Ghoulish Goodies: 

I was going to do this card for my project for this month's Creative Stampers Tutorial, but I decided to go with another project instead since I usually do a card for the tutorials.  This month's theme is Cozy Critters, every one used one of the stamp sets from either the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog or the August-December Mini Catalog with a animal in it.  



I picked the Ghoulish Goodies Stamp Set to create my projects with this month.  I purchased this stamp set for this little kitty right here.  He reminds me of my little Louie.  So, I just had to feature this set this month.  The Ghoulish Goodies Stamp Set allows you to create fun and spooky handmade cards, tags, and more for Halloween.  



Halloween is one of my favorite holidays and I love to make cards and other projects for this magical night.  For the background of my card I could have used a piece of the new Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper but I had a wonderful idea to use the new Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder instead.  I still wanted it to look spooky but knew I wanted to use Basic Black.  I knew that Basic Black would be way to dark by itself and the cobweb embossing wouldn't show up.  So I had to options to make it stand out.  I could use Whisper White Craft Ink or Frost White Shimmer Paint and sponge over it to make it stand out.  I decided that I wanted to use the Frost White Shimmer Paint so that it would have a magical glow and shimmer to each web as if the morning light is hitting a due soaked web early in the morning.  

Color Inspiration: 

Once I got all the pieces of my card together I wanted to add just a little bit more sparkle to the card so I took some Bumblebee In Color Ribbon and the Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon and tied them together in a bow.  This allowed the glitter to glow and added another pop of color to the card.  Speaking of colors, I decided on a color pallet of Pretty Peacock, Blackberry Bliss, Bumblebee, Basic Black and Very Vanilla for my card today.  Most of the colors came from the Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper.  I added in the Bumblebee because I thought it would compliment the other colors nicely and give a great pop of color.

I have created a graphic that you can save to your Pinterest Boards to make it easy to remember what the main items on today's card was.  If you would like to see all my other Project Recipes you can do so by clicking here.
