Mimi’s Halloween Card with Book Collection and Build-A-Cauldron

Mimi joins us today with an amazing design for Halloween! She combined Build-A-Cauldron with Book Collection to create a “spell-cial” card!


Mimi’s spooky scene features some fun and clever details along with the new Build-A-Cauldron and Book Collection! She started with Stitched Windy Backdrop cut from black canvas textured cardstock. She added some blended white pigment ink to add to the texture. You could use Lawn Fawn Yeti ink or Distress Oxide ink Picket Fence. Then she cut a piece of gray canvas cardstock for the ground. And finished the background by adding vellum Cute Cobwebs to the upper corners.

And then she prepped the Book Collection, cutting the books from white cardstock. She colored them with Copic markers and stamped spooky book titles from Purrfectly Wicked.


To create the bubbling potion in the cauldron, Mimi started with Pixie Dust Sparkle cardstock. She inked it with Twisted Citron Distress Oxide ink, so perfect for a spooky potion. Then she tucked in some of the bats and eye of newt from Tiny Halloween. Mimi used the stitched rectangle found in the Magic Picture Changer Oven Add-On as the shelf/sentiment strip. So clever!

She created the jars using the paint jar from Art Supplies, coloring the lids to match the books. Then she used the tab die from Magic Iris Camera Pull-Tab Add-On to make a window. She backed the jars with another solid piece and added acetate to the window piece. Then she filled the labeled jars with eye of newt and bat wings. To create “frog breath” she used the coordinating die for the sparkle from Tiny Fairy Tale, cutting it from vellum. Then Mimi used additional stamps from Purrfectly Wicked to label the jars.

I love this clever card so much, Mimi! Thank you for the spooky inspiration!

And now Joy shares her shaped card using Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder! Her Autumn themed design is so adorable, and the coffee cup shape is totally clever! You can watch the video tutorial below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.


Thank you so much for watching!


In her tutorial, Joy shows how to create a shaped card using the Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder. She positioned the die just above the fold of the card to keep fold intact. Then she cut another coffee cup piece from pretty Falling Leaves paper to cover the shaped card. More Falling Leaves paper in a coordinating color and pattern is used to die cut the cup lid and sleeve. Such a fun beginning to this cute card design!


Joy then decorated her card in a coffee and Autumn theme featuring Treat Cart Add-On: Coffee and the original Treat Cart set. So cute!

Thanks so much for sharing your adorable card, Joy! Shaped cards are so much fun!

Elegant Fall Themed Baby Announcement Cards with Grace

Grace combined some Fall sets to create two beautifully elegant cards! They are perfect to announce that a “little pumpkin” is on the way!


The design of each card is exactly the same, just a little change in the colors for a boy or a girl. Grace started with a panel of Falling Leaves 6×6 paper that she cut using the largest Outside In Stitched Rectangle. Next, she cut a vellum panel with a Scalloped Rectangle to layer over the patterned paper. The greeting looks so good white embossed on the vellum. She used a sentiment from Little Bundle, customizing it with Milo’s ABCs.


Then Grace arranged some lovely Autumn elements starting with a large pumpkin from Pumpkin House. Another pumpkin from Stitched Pumpkins along with Sunny Sunflower and smaller Sunflower Border blooms complete the arrangement. All of the die cuts were colored with Lawn Fawn inks and blending brushes. Check out the ink colors in the supply list below.


The final touches add so much charm to an already special design! The cute fox from Foxy Family nestles into the layers of sunflowers and pumpkins, while the bow from Cute Candy Canes adds a pearly look in pastel vellum.

Thank you so much for sharing this gorgeous card design with us, Grace!
