Halloween Greetings Tag

Hi everyone! Nice to see you again!

Today I'm bringing you a superquick, supereasy Halloween tag featuring the Gel-à-Tins Halloween Greetings set!

When you have tons of candy to give out the last thing you need is a design that will take ages to put together! Hence today's simple but effective tag:

Image

How about that?! I think you could dress up your ghoulish gifts quite well with this!

Image

I started by die-cutting a tag from some cardstock then stamping the sentiment repeatedly on the tag using orange, purple and green inks.

Image

I then stamped a couple of jack-o-lanterns on orange and purple cardstock using black ink, trimmed them out and adhered with dimensional glue gel. I added a stamped 'stamp' image in black to add a bit of interest to the tag.

Image

All that was left was to add a ribbon/twine treatment and I was done!!



Supplies Used:

Gel-à-Tins:
Halloween Greetings stamp set

Other:
Trick or Treat stamp set Inkadinkado)
Canyon Clay ink, Plum Pudding ink, Simply Chartreuse ink (Papertrey Ink)
Versafine Onyx Black ink, (Tsukineko)

Orange Zest Saddle Stitch ribbon, Smokey Shadow Satin Luxe ribbon (Papertrey Ink)
Twine (other)
Tag Sale #6 die (Papertrey Ink)
Pinflair Glue Gel (Olba)


I'd love to know what you think of this tag. Thanks for stopping by - and have a Happily Haunted Halloween!!

Halloween is Almost Here!

Image

Halloween is fast approaching. I thought I would make one more card to send to a friend. I used the Witchy Poo Collection once again. There are so many images in that set. It is fabulous.

To make this card, I stamped the witch onto yellow cardstock. I used a circle cutter to cut out a circle. It represents the moon. I cut a slightly larger circle in orange, and adhered the two circles together with foam adhesive.

Adhere the circles to the white panel. Stamp the sentiment following the curve of the outer circle. I stamped each letter individually to make sure they were spaced correctly.

Use additional pattern paper to finish off the card. I added two buttons and a small cloud for some interest and to offset the symmetrical design.

So, are you ready for Halloween? Do you have your costume yet?
Thanks for stopping by today.

Trick or Treat

Hi everyone! Nice to see you again!

Today I'm bringing you a quick and easy Halloween card featuring the Gel-à-Tins Halloween Greetings set!

I went for an easy-to-mass-produce design which took next to no time to whip up:

Image

What do you think? Does it get you in the mood for Halloween?!

Image

I started by stamping the sentiment in Versamark ink and embossing with some orange embossing powder.

Image

I then stamped the witch strip using black ink. As the sentiment is already embossed you can just wipe the ink off the top of it, giving it a more aged look in the process!

Image

I decided I needed a few embellishments around the sentiment, so I reached for the bat stamp and stamped them in Versamark ink before embossing with a lavender embossing powder.

Image

All that was left was to round a corner and I was all done!!

Supplies Used:

Gel-à-Tins:
Halloween Greetings stamp set

Other:
Trick or Treat stamp set Inkadinkado)
Versafine Onyx Black ink, Versamark ink (Tsukineko)
Smokey Shadow cardstock (Papertrey Ink)
Zing! Embossing Powder


I'd love to know what you think of this card. Thanks for stopping by!!

Banners and Sparkle by Nina

Hello stampers! Nina here with a quick and easy halloween card using the fun banners from Witch Poo set.

Image

One of the fun things you can do with a photopolymer stamp is that you can bend a banner or sentiment to create curves:

Image

I heat embossed the banner three times in lavender, leaf and mustard colored embossing powder by American Crafts.

The pretty bling background? It was a beautiful surprise that came in my DT package! Thanks Bonnie, I really enjoyed it!

Happy Huanting! :)

Not so Spooky Haunted House

Hello, everyone. I am bringing you another halloween card using the fabulous haunted house image from the Witchy Poo collection.

Image

I first stamped the house onto white cardstock. I cut out some of the windows, and place a piece of ledger paper behind it. The lines in the paper add to the look of the windows. I added a moon, hand-cut cloud, and a stamped bat. The sentiment was stamped onto pattern paper and cut into banner shapes. I adhered most of the elements with foam adhesive squares. Such a must-have when making cards!

I hope you enjoyed this cute, and not so spooky, halloween card!
Thank you for stopping by.

A Chevron-Tastic Haunted House card!

I am loving all the Halloween projects the talented gel-a-tins DT has been showing you! Of course, I have decided to another Halloween card using the Witchy Poo Stamp set and a touch of the Chrevrontastic Set.

Hope you like it!

Image

A close-up of the bats and house from the Witchy Poo Stamp set.

Image

To add a splash of orange to the card, I decided to use the Chrevrontastic set to help highlight the haunted house. And of course, I decided to use a few of my favorite foam dots to add dimension to the card. (The moon and the sign pop off the page.)

Thank you for stopping by today! If you have any gel-a-tins creations, please share them with us and then think about trying out for our current DT search! You could be on the next team!

Fall Kitty Wine Glass Charm

Hi everyone! Welcome back!

Today I'm bringing you a super-cute little project using the mini Fall Kitty Gelly Jr's stamp from Gel-à-Tins! I've just been waiting and waiting for Autumn to be in the air to bring out this little kitty!

I decided I wanted to make something cute and different with this little kitty and stumbled upon this idea:

Image

What do you think? Fun huh?!

I started by stamping the kitty onto orange cardstock and carefully cutting him out, hat and all. I then stamped him again on orange and cut just him out. :-)

Image

See his cute little stripes? That's the Love Knots set at work again! God I will never get tired of using this set!!

Image

I then stamped the hat a couple of times on purple cardstock and trimmed out the hat and the brim. I used dimensional glue gel to adhere it all together so he had some dimension, and used a white pen to add detail to his eyes, tail and paws. I added a tiny bit of shading with a Copic Marker too.

Image

To use him as a glass charm I tied some silk ribbon to the brim and knotted it with a loop at the back, then used another length of ribbon to tie the charm to my glass. Can you imagine a table setup with loads of these little kitties? Too cute!!



Supplies Used:

Gel-à-Tins:
Fall Kitty Gelly Jr's stamp set, Love Knots stamp set

Other:
Smokey Shadow ink (Papertrey Ink), Versafine Onyx Black ink (Tsukineko)
Canyon Clay cardstock, Winter Wisteria cardstock (Papertrey Ink)
Silk Ribbon (Papertrey Ink)
White Pen (Inkssentials), Copic Marker
Pinflair Glue Gel, Mod Podge


I'd love to know what you think of this little project. Thanks for stopping by!!

Haunted House Card

Hello, everyone! Nina here with a fun Halloween card! I free hand cut the mountain from black cardstock.

Image

Stamps except the sentiment are from Gelatins Witch Poo set. I love the silhouettes in this set! I used a ink dabber and the negative of a punched circle to create the moon:

Image

I then inked the white card base with some blue ink for the sky.

Image

fun and easy! :)

A Spooky Ghost!

Hello, Gel-a-tins fans! Jessi, here! I am super excited for October to be here! Are you enjoying all the Halloween projects the talented design team has been sharing? I know that I am!

Today I have another project for you using the Witchy Poo stamp set.

Image

When I saw these ghost shape cards, I instantly visioned the ghost holding a banner. So I stamped the Witchy Poo banner and cut the banner out. I also stamped the spider webs and attached stickers to spell B-O-O. The final touch was adding the twine bows.

Image

Thank you for stopping by Gel-a-tins today! Please share any of your Gel-a-tins projects with us on our Facebook page.

An Early Halloween Card!

Image

Hello, everyone. Here is another early halloween card. I used the spider web stamp from the Witchy Poo Collection.

Simply stamp the spider web twice at the top of a white piece of cardstock. Stamp the web two more times, cut out, and adhere with foam adhesive squares. This just gives some interest and dimension.

Use a thin, black marker to draw the web coming down and the sentiment. I actually penciled it in first to make sure I was happy with the way it looked. A small, circle punch is perfect to make the spider's body.

Use black patterned paper to complete the card. A simple statement that hopefully will make the recipient smile and not squirm!

Hallo Scream!

I cannot wait for Halloween! Just a little more than one month! Yippee! So meanwhile, let's get in the Halloween mood by making a card with Gel-a-tins "Witchy Poo" Stamp set! This set is so much fun to work with!

Image

I started with the background of the card. The spider web stamp was perfect for just that. To form the background, stamp the image over and over to cover the area.

Image

The next stamp was to use the banner image included in the Witchy Poo Set two times to make detail that goes across the bottom. I fussy-cut the banner out and adhered to the card.

Image

The last step is to add the sentiment onto a banner and add to the card.
This card includes lots of layers and to make them pop, I used foam dots to the layers.


Thank you for stopping by today! Hope you find some time to create! We would love to see what creations you make using Gel-a-tins!

Have a great day!

Celebrate Halloween

The weather here is getting a bit cooler. Autumn is approaching. Before we know it, the first of the holidays will be upon us. The stamp set called, "Witchy Poo" is perfect to celebrate spooky but fun Halloween!
Image

This stamp set includes some witch imagery, as well as bats, bones, and a banner. I decided to use part of the stamp banner and the bats to create this card.

To begin, make a card base from orange cardstock. Stamp the banner and bats in black ink on white cardstock. Cut them out. Use individual flags from the stamped banner and triangles cut from patterned paper to make this focal point embellishment. Add some ribbons, knotted ribbon, and bats for additional texture.

The sentiment can be stamped or handwritten (as I have done here.) Use a thin black marker to create some detail around the border of the card.

Don't be "afraid" to make this banner as elaborate as you wish. It definitely is too cute to spook!
Thank you for checking out the blog today.
