Avery Elle … Halloween S’mores

Here today sharing a card featuring the new Halloween S’mores stamp set –  the cutest collection of Halloween treats you ever did see!! In the UK s’mores aren’t really a thing (we don’t have Graham crackers here) but we do make our own versions using good old McVities chocolate digestives!!  Not sure how they compare to the originals but they do taste good!

Anyway, back to the card!  I started with a white A2 landscape card and blended some lime green ink to give a bit of background colour.  

I used the Double Pierced Rectangle dies and cut a mat and then a smaller frame using two of the smaller rectangles.  I then blended orange and purple inks onto the frame to keep with the Halloween vibe! I adhered the frame onto the mat and popped them onto the card front using foam tape.

I coloured the cute s’more characters using Copics and then stamped and die cut them and popped them onto the card using foam tape.For the sentiment I used the banner from Easy Layers 1 die set and stamped the Halloween is S’more onto it in black and orange then completed the card by stamping “fun with friends like you” underneath – finishing off with a couple of stars.

Avery Elle … Merry Circle tags

Hey there, Caryn here today sharing a card using the Merry Circle Tags stamp set.  Instead of creating tags, I decided to showcase how great a set this is for creating backgrounds or patterns using all the tiny images.

I started by stamping the larger sentiment image in red ink in the bottom right corner of a panel cut using the Double Pierced Rectangle die collection.  I then selected the small holiday images one by one and stamped them in green until I had filled the rest of the panel To add a little contrast and “pop” I added a piece of red card to the back of the front panel using foam adhesive.and tied some twine around the panel.

To add a little bit more interest I added colour to the berries on the holly images and added a red heart bubble onto the twine.  I love how clean and simple this design turned out!

Avery Elle… Christmas Dreams

Hey there, it’s Caryn here today with a holiday card made of a number of the new sets from the Fall 2021 release.

I stamped, coloured and die cut the mouse from Christmas Dreams then created my bas card.

I wanted to have him perched on top of the Merry die so stamped some foliage using the layered pine stamps and dies.  I cut 3 of the Merry die from white cardstock and once from red and layered up the four layers.  I used some of the small images from Merry Circle Dies to create a band across the card behind the mouse and used the “be” part from the sentiment in the Layered Stars stamp set.
