October Blast from the Past Blog Hop
Good morning & Happy Wednesday! Today I’m super excited to join our fabulous customers on our Blast from the Past Blog Hop. The creative Sankari has designed another fun sketch for us to use to make a project with the Trick or Sweet theme! That means all of our hop participants created either a Halloween themed project or something sweet to share today. I just love these hops because I always come away inspired to bust out my ‘older’ TE sets to create! That’s why we call it a Blast from the Past… because everyone is also using TE sets released more than three months ago. We’d love to have you join us next month (everyone is welcome!) and you can find all of the hop details on this page.
But before you head off to sign up for the hop next month, check out all of the projects by clicking on the links below!
I decided to use the Punchy Potions set to make a Halloween card and a treat. It’s been a while since I pulled out this set and now I remember why I like it so much! The images are super cute and easy to color and I love that they work for both cards and potion bottle treats. I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored them with Copics. Then I added a bit of glitter to the spider webs with a Quickie Glue Pen. The ovals were cut out with Spellbinders oval dies. The patterned paper is from the Too Cute to Spook collection by Bella Blvd. To finish off the card I added a bow using orange and black polka dot ribbon along with some orange glittered brads. Yes, I know I switched up the sketch, but sketches are for inspiration, right!? And this one is certainly inspiring!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Don’t miss the rest of the projects along the hop… I’m sure they’re super clever and creative!
