It’s October!! That means Halloween will soon be here, and what better way to use your stamps than by creating your own Potions & Spells Shadow Box. We made this project in class last month.
Potions & Spells Bundle
This is such a fun bundle. I’ve used it for several cards, corner bookmarks and the wall decor I’m showing you today. We used both the stamps and dies for this project. It’s not in any catalog, but you’ll find this bundle along with many other products on my shopping site under the Online Exclusives tab.
In each month’s class, we make a Quick & Easy card. This month, we used the Under the Moon stamp set. This stamp set has images, but no words, so we used the Simply Said stamp set for our greeting.
Under the Moon Stamp Set
With this stamp set, you can build your own scene. If you click on the image above, you can see other cards made with the set. My card is called a SIP card because it’s only Stamps, Inks and Papers. We didn’t use any dies, punches or special tools for this one.
Simply Said Stamp Set
This is a great greeting set with ten different sayings in two different fonts – a little something for everything. You can see several samples using this set by clicking on the picture above.
