CraftWell DT: Halloween and Dia de los Muertos Crafts

Dear Scrappers,

This is my post for Craftwell:

For this post, I made threee different crafts to celbrate Halloween and Dia de los Muertos:

For Halloween, I made these candle holders using Spellbinder diea and my SNAP:

note: for the Volleyball, I cut out one of the cats from the dies cut and replaced with a BuBunny die instead. I gave that cancle holder to my daughter's team coach.

Every year, I go to a friend's house to celebrate Halloween and we bring our children Trick or Treating, however, with COVID, we decided to send each other goody bags with candy to each family:

Thus, I made some tags using an spellbinder treatbag tag die, and many of the Crafty Chica dia de los muertos stamps and dies, using my Crafty Chica printed paper pad and my SNAP.

I also fussy cut some of stamped images from Paper Wings, some die cuts from Fun Stamper Journey (triangle banners), and HeroArts (banners):

I ended up making more than 30 tags. Here are some examples:

Front and back:

Front on the L side and back on the R side:

I also made some Dia de los Muertos cards for some friends of mine using my left over die cuts and fussy cuts:

October was a very stressful and bussy month. So, what do I do when I need to relieve stress?

CRAFT!!!!

I hope you enjoyed my quick and easy projects and please make sure to visit Craftwell for more inspiration and to follow me.

Happy November,

and stay safe from this pandemic.

For this blog hop, I created another box card using the svg file from this month's sponsor: halloween-paperscape-box-cards-svg-bundle

I used some Graphic 45 papers, black, orange, lighter orange and eggshell cardstock from CTMH, printed black CTMH paper, and some glittery Recollection terracota paper for the title.

I stamped the title and sentiment using some old Halloween CTMH stamps and archival ink. I added some orange Stickles to the title and sentiment to make them shine some more:

Here a closer look to the sentiment: Bugs and Hisses:

You can see here how much dimension this 3d card has...

I hope you enjoy my second box card and

Guest Design Post: S4funChallenges blog - Challenge #101 - Autumn Colours

Dear scrappers,

I am guest designing at www.scrapping4funchallenges.blogspot.com.

Their theme this time is

Challenge 101 - Autumn Colours

For this GD, I made a card, which I used for a card swap over at Connie Can Crop:

The good thing about the colors I used is that they are good for both Halloween and Fall. Don't you think?

Sideways:

For the inside:

I used some Color box chalk to distress the sentiment and stamped some CTMH Halloween stamps with archival ink.

I used some Stamping Up inks to distress the die cuts from Sizzix:

and to stamp the trees for the background using a PWP stamp:

I used some printed CTMH cardstock to add some interest to the borders of this stepping card:

Then after stamping some moons using CTMH Halloween stamps, I punched them out and added some bats from a glitter Recollection tape. Finally, I added some embellishments from my stash and voila I made 10 cards...

I hope you enjoyed this card and visit www.scrapping4funchallenges.blogspot.com.

Many blessings

Vicky Tovar
