Set of Square Greeting Cards

Greeting Card Set

Set of four greeting cards available for purchase in my Etsy shop.  The set includes two birthday cards, a thank you card and a sympathy card.  I created a set in each of six colours:  yellow, green, teal, coral, purple and blue.  The colour selections are shown below.


I also include an envelope for each in the card set and I've adorned each with a matching stamped image (shown below).


The card to the left shows the blue background option.
 The green option is shown to the right.
A bright yellow version is also available.
As is a purple background.

Greeting Card Set

Set of Four Greeting Cards


I have started an Etsy shop to sell my cards and I have slowly been stocking it up.

This is one of four cards included in a set of four cards that I have added to my shop as a set.  This set is A2 sized and includes two birthday cards, a thank you card and a friendship card.

The coloured background is a patterned stamp from the Background Textures stamp set that is part of the Club Sursee monthly subscription kit from Catherine Pooler Designs.


Above is a photo of the green version of the set of four cards.  Each set has cards with matching backgrounds and black silhouette images.  Below are other colours of backgrounds that are also available.

To the left is the blue version. The background stamp was stamped with Catherine Pooler Designs inks in two shades.  The sentiment stamp and the floral and foliage images were stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink for a crisp silhouette.
 To the right is a coral coloured version.
 Purple is also lovely in this design.
The teal is my favourite version.  It reminds me of the Caribbean.

Happy Halloween Witchy Lady!

Haunted Halloween Scene

These images were stamped in silhouette, using Midnight ink by Catherine Pooler Designs, on a Distress Oxide ink blended background.  The ink blended background was spritzed with water from a Distress Sprayer and dabbed with a paper towel.  The Halloween images are from the Spooky Hollow stamp set by Catherine Pooler Designs - CPD had a really fun Halloween release this year!


The card base is Nina Kraft cardstock with rectangles of patterned paper added underneath the box for a pop of colour.  The purple argyle paper is from the Sunny Studio Stamps Preppy Prints 6 x 6 paper pack.


The pop-up box and the bat are both from Lawn Fawn.  The box is the new Mini Pop-Up Box and the Bat is the Tiny Gift Box Bat add-on, also from the latest release.   The Bat add-on includes all the dies you need to create the cute little bat as well as the pop up banner.  The sentiment I used on the banner if from Lawn Fawn's Pick of the Patch stamp set.


This little bat is so adorable!  I used Gina K Designs Black Onyx paper for the box and face, with scraps of grey and white to create the detail.  The sparkle cardstock for the wings comes from Lawn Fawn's Autumn Sparkle Cardstock.


A close-up of the great sentiment from the Spooky Hollow set!  "Witchy lady" - it's so fun!

Halloween Shadow Box Tunnel Card

Ghosts, Bats and a Black Cat

The Spellbinders Large and Small Die-of-the-Month Kits for September 2018 had a Halloween theme.  Yay!  I used the dies from the Small Die set, along with others in my stash, to create this card.


All of the panels for the card are ink blended using Distress Oxide inks in Seedless Preserves, Dusty Concord and Black Soot.  They were then given some texture using water, a Distress Sprayer and a paper towel to blot the sprayed water.  On the front of the card, the bats and the ghosts are from the Spellbinders Small Die set.  The fence is a die from a recent release from Lawn Fawn.  The spider, spider web and the sentiment are stamps from the Everything But the Broom stamp set by Catherine Pooler Designs.


In this close-up of the inside you can see the layers in the box card.  On the layers I added die cut embellishments, including the sentiment, from the Spellbinders Small Die set.  I tucked the spooky cat between the fences and added the cute little ghost to the side of the panel to make it look like he's peeking out.  The tree and headstone images on the back panel were stamped using Midnight ink from Catherine Pooler Designs.  I used two sizes of circle punch by Stampin' Up! to cut the moon out of gold glitter paper from the Lawn Fawn Autumn Glitter Paper collection - after the larger circle was cut, I used the smaller circle to cut the crescent shape.  It took a couple of tries to get the look I wanted.


Isn't he a cute and happy looking ghost?  That's why I like him so much!


Above is a panned out view of the card.  Notice that I added the ornate skull-topped piece to the top of the card.  I wanted it to look like the entrance to the graveyard.
