INK & INSPIRATION BLOG HOP - HALLOWEEN/FALL

Welcome to the monthly Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop. This month's theme is Halloween/Fall.

You are currently visiting Rosalie Desmond from Australia. I hope you enjoy my project.

This month's theme has given me the opportunity to use the Rooted in Nature stamp set. By using Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze and Daffodil Delight I bought the Fall theme to my card.

I decided that I wanted to make a fun fold card for today's project, but also wanted to keep it simple. I cut a standard type of card base using half an A4 sheet of paper. I then grabbed the trimmer and made a diagonal cut in the front to create and interesting shape. For visual details of how to do this see the YouTube video below.

Using the square thinlit dies, a frame was created to boarder the main image of the card.

I added some stamped leave images on both the card front and also the inside piece of cardstock to add some extra interest and texture.

I hope you enjoy the remainder of the hop. Make sure that you don't miss any of the lovely projects.

Until next time. Happy crafting,

SCREEN CARD

With so many different types of card folds out there, my to-do list is amazingly long. Screen cards were huge on the internet last year and I have finally got around to making my first one. Better late than never they say.

Here is my first screen card which uses Touches of Texture.

My screen card has four sections which are all 7cm wide. This allows for the opportunity to have multiple pictures.

Thank you for joining me today,

SHAKE THAT HAMMER!!!

After the fun making yesterdays shaker card for the Global Design Project I decided to give it another go today. This time instead of using the hexagon shaped framelit from the Build It Framelits for my shaker space I decided to use tool shapes from the same set.

As the tool shapes were smaller than the hexagon I needed to have a few smaller shaker pieces. I stamped the screw heads and tacks on to some cardstock and then fussy cut (cut them out by hand)them.

I then added a few stars from Metallic Enamel Shapes (141678).

SHAKE THOSE TOOLS!!!

I've had an idea for another shaker card floating around in my head, then I saw this week's Global Design Challenge and snap that was it. I just had to get crafting!

These are today's colours.

This is what I made.

Those screws and bolts are just perfect little shaker pieces.
