Happy Thanksgiving



Today I have a Thanksgiving card with pretty Fall leaves made with stamps, dies and inks from Rubbernecker Stamps. There are times when friends and family can't get together for the holidays, so I like to send out cards to let them know we are thinking of them.
Here's how my card was made.

Die-cut the Plaid Cover Die from white cardstock and layer it onto wood patterned paper.



Stamp the sentiment from the Give Thanks Sayings set on white cardstock with VersaMark Ink and emboss it with rust embossing powder.
Die-cut this using the Nested Scallop w/ Half Holes die and layer it onto slightly larger rust cardstock.
 

Pop the sentiment up on the center of the card and glue the leaves beneath it.


Here’s what you will want to have on hand to make this pretty project:

Hello Thinking of You Card


To make the panel, shades of yellow and pink inks were blended on white cardstock, then attached to a black card using the Double-Sided Tape Runner Strips 150ft.



The flower was stamped on watercolor paper and colored with colored pencils.  It was then die-cut with a rectangle stitched die and layered onto a purple die-cut panel also using the Double-Sided Tape Runner Strips 150ft.


The panel was then popped up using 3D Foam Circles and mounted diagonally on the card.


Butterflies were die-cut from foam from the 3D Foam Creative Embellishment Kit.


A butterfly was added to the top right corner, blue foil from the Foil Transfer Sheets Pastel Colors pack was placed on top and a little rhinestone was added to the body. 
E-Z Runner Stars was used to place three stars at the bottom left of the card and crystal glitter was rubbed on top.

Halloween Card

 

Rubbernecker Blog RN-9-2022-Halloween-a-JM

Today I have a card using the new Spook-Tacular 6x6 paper pad from Rubbernecker Stamps. Here's how my card was made.

I started by using the die with the circular detail holes from our Borders #3 to cut the bottom of a card sized panel of one of the sheets from the Spook-Tacular Paper Pad, a scrap of black card stock and a scrap of purple card stock. I layered these together with the black piece peeking out from under the patterned paper and then the purple under the black. This is a super easy way to build a detailed edge on any element.

Then I took a white piece of card panel sized card stock and splattered it with some gray Color Fuse Ink from Set #12. When it was dry, she adhered her layered component over it. She added that assembly over a layer of black card stock and then popped the whole “stack” onto a purple card base.
 
Using paper snips, cut out the words “Halloween” and “Boo”from the leftover paper as well as fussy cut some of the little elements from the scraps to save for a future project. I then layered “Halloween” onto black and purple card stock and added it to her card with some dimensional adhesive.

The Jack-O-Lanterns die to cut some orange, green and black scraps and made a couple of cute accents, adhering them to the card in the lower right corner.  Then I adhered “Boo”, added a few black Nuvo Drops and Crystal Stickles and this card was ready.

Fall Leaves Thinking of You


Happy Monday! Today I have a Fall Thinking of You card made with the help of different types of adhesives from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.  

Place an Adhesive Sheet 4" x 6" on white cardstock keeping the top liner of the Adhesive Sheet on.  Pull up the liner a bit and place black leaf stickers on the Adhesive Sheet, cut off that section and replace the liner so you can use the rest later.



I had some burlap wired ribbon that I cut a piece off, cut the wires off and placed a strip of Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1" on the back and adhered it to a tan panel that has been stamped with a dot background with brown ink.  


You aren't able to see the adhesive through the burlap.


3D Foam Strips were placed on the back of the panel, you want to use enough of the 3D Foam Strips on the back so that you don't have the edges or middle sagging.


Making the leaves was so much fun! I used different techniques for them, some leaves were made by rubbing a Foil Transfer Sheet on the leaf, and some were made with the foil marbling technique which is where you crumble up some foil, and place it on the leaf. When you remove the sheet, the foil that will be left on the leaf will look like veins. You will then sprinkle it with crystal glitter. Others only had glitter placed on them.
The leaves were mounted on the burlap ribbon using E-Z Runner Squares.


The sentiment was stamped on the bottom of the card with black ink, then black glitter washi tape was added to the top and the bottom of the burlap. This panel was then mounted to a black card using the E-Z Runner Squares.
