Halloween Banner

Hello! Welcome back to the BPM blog! Do you decorate your house for Halloween? Today's project is something you can create and add to your Halloween decor.


I used the tag from the Blank Page Muse Creepy Cute Halloween Digital Papers. A lot of possibilities for this set. Don't think that you are limited to using this set for Halloween only. There are some printables that can be used all year round. 

The tags sheets include 6-7 tags in a sheet. Since I am using a particular tag, I cropped this tag to remove the rest of the tag. I re-sized the tag to fit 8 tags in an 8 1/2" x 11" light weight white cardstock. This is one of the perks of using a digital image. You can change it's size depending on your crafty need.


I adhered a black cardstock on the back of the tags to give it more stability since I used a light weight paper to print the tag on. I die cut the tags with a tag die. I added some stitched die cuts letters for the greeting.

To embellish the tag, I added a looped metallic gold embroidery floss and Halloween sequins. I clipped the tags to a twine using clothespins. 

Feel free to customize this project by using another printable tag or using a different greeting or create a banner for a different occasion. There are plenty of designs to chose from in this set. 

I hope you like today's project. Please visit my blog, Maria Giselle's Creative Cuts, for project details.

Mini Journal

 Mini Journal

It's Sue here today.


Besides making cards, which I love to do, I have discovered making journals over the past couple of years. 

Here's a look at the inside showing the pages, pockets, and little surprises.  
While making this mini journal I discovered you can stamp on our pattern paper!  Blank Page Muse pattern paper is what I call semi gloss so I wasn't sure you could stamp on it ... until I tried.

See more, and a flip through video over on my blog.

How to make a cute and Not so Scary Halloween Card

 Greetings!   today I am excited to share this super cute and not so scary Halloween card that I think will be perfect for my young granddaughter! She is at that age where she seems to get startled and scared easily.  So this cute little card featuring Blank Page Muse's Costume Bear Set of 6 Single Line Art Rubber Stamps by Rick St Dennis.  These bears are so cute and fun to stamp with! 



I chose to stamp with grey archival ink and colored my image with watercolor markers and a water brush. Just look at the detail on this stamp. 


I finished off the card with some matted checkered papers and a few leftover stickers.

It is All About Mushrooms

Hello! Welcome back to the BPM blog! Did you notice that the mushroom is the most popular icon in crafting these days? It seems that there is some kind of mushroom on product releases. That's why today's card, as the title says, is all about mushrooms.


I used the following BPM products on this project: 

Cute Mushrooms Stencil

Butterfly Breezes CLEAR Stamp Set Butterflies Sunflower Wishing Sentiment

I blended Oxide inks to the mushroom stencil. I masked off the areas so I have a mushroom with two colors. I added white dot details to the mushroom cap which I think brought life to the mushrooms. What do you think? I just love this mushroom stencil that I think I am going to create something again with it.

I added a red frame to this panel which is actually a cover-up for a boo-boo. Details on how I saved this panel at my blog. 

The sentiment was heat embossed on the same red cardstock. 

I hope today's project inspires you. Please visit my blog, Maria Giselle's Creative Cuts, for card details.

Thinking About You

Hello, stamping friends. Welcome by the blog again and thanks for joining me, Karen Letchworth, as I share another FUN card that I created using some of the FAB stamps from Blank Page Muse!  The card I'm sharing today uses primarily rubber stamps.  You can really stretch your money by purchasing the rubber version of a stamp.  You can still use rubber stamps in your Misti, and they're just a really great value. Of course, if you're strictly an acrylic stamp person, Blank Page Muse has that as well.  These FAB stores always offer you the option of acrylic or rubber; so your options are wide open.
I stamped the DARLING Bird w/Small Butterflies (rubber) two times and fussy cut those as well.  I attached them all to my growing card base.  Can you see the GORGEOUS swirls, words and butterflies inside this bird?  GORGEOUS!!!  The final layer is the sentiment (Thinking of You) which is found in the Special Day Stamps - Birthday Hugs Stamp Set by Pam Bray (acrylic). 
You can read more about my card by visiting my blog, My Cup Runneth Over.  In the meantime, don't forget to visit us here often for lots of great inspiration.  We're always happy to have you stop by and visit.

Blessings,
Karen

Beware the Bird Man

Hey there, friends!

It’s design team member Walter on the BPM blog today with a fun take on a Halloween card.  This card allowed me to combine my love for vintage looking cards with a stamp that was begging for a story to be told.  I had so much fun with this one!  Beware the Bird Man is a cautionary tale based on some imaginary local lore (or is it imaginary?)


I used the following BPM stamps in making it:

Each of these stamps combined to create a vintage looking book page and image.


Visit my blog for more details on the card and to read the story I wrote that was inspired by the Bird Man!

I hope that you all have a safe and happy All Hallow’s Eve.  Thanks for spending some time with me on the blog today.  See you next time!

Easy Colourful Birthday Cards!

 Hi Stamping Fans!

Hope you have all been enjoying the creations this month! the DT have made some great projects for your inspiration!

Today I have some cards inspired by an online art journal class I did last month.


I've used Lindy's magicals to create the shiny coloured strips on the cards.

Here are the supplies I used and links to them in store:
Butterfly Breezes Clear Stamp Set
Numbers & Flowers Half Sheet Set


These cards are really easy! Cut some strips of watercolor paper and use whatever you have on hand to color them - I used Lindy's Magicals - you could use watercolors, any ink sprays you have - delve into your stash!
Once dry stencil with black paint - lots of stencils in store you can use for this step! I used the "dots" from the Numbers & Flowers half set to add a few spots of black to the coloured strips.
Stamp your images on watercolor paper and color with Lindy's Magicals or whatever you used for your strips then fussy cut.
Add some white outlines and paint splatters along with your stamped images and your cards are done!


Thanks for joining me today - make sure you pop back regularly to see what the rest of the DT are creating!

Pop over to MY BLOG to get more info!

Happy stamping!

Sharon

Fracture Cards

 Sue here today.

Pattern paper is the star of the show for today.

There are lots of things to do with pattern papers so today I'm showing you what are called Fracture cards.  It's a fun way to use double or single sided pattern papers.

Sometimes I get stumped on how to use all those beautiful pattern papers on my cards.  This card idea is fun and addictive.

See this idea and more at my blog here.
