I've created this Halloween "lantern", perfect for party or home decor to ramp up the spooky! Here's the info:

Layout the dies from the Spellbinders 5 x 7 Matting Basics A (S6-001) set on Bazzill Board in black 

Run through die cut machine, repeat this three more times to create the four sides

Cut four pieces of vellum to fit the four sides, stamp each piece of vellum with the Cling Tomb Elements stamp (CRW134) from Stampendous using StazOn Jet Black

Use the Dreamweaver Spider Web (DWLJ816) to emboss a web design on each stamped piece of vellum

Adhere the embossed vellum images to the back of each frame

Ink the front edges of each frame with VersaMagic Cloud White ink

Die cut a gate and two fence pieces for each side from Spellbinder's Garden Gate on Bazzill Board in black

Pat the die cut piece with VersaMark ink

Sprinkle lightly with Aged Black and Aged Silver embossing enamels

Heat set each embossed piece

Use a glue pen to attach the gate and fence pieces to each side

Die cut corner pieces from the Fancy Label Tags Four set from Spellbinders, emboss the pieces with the Aged Black and Aged Silver embossing enamels, cut some branches from the new Woodland Collection Trees die (S3-227)

Use small brads, the embossed label pieces and branches to assemble the sides

Cut four black stripe for the"handle"

Cut four decorative pieces and emboss with Aged Black and Aged Silver embossing enamels

Use small brads to attach the filigree pieces and strips to the lantern

Bring the four strips together at the top and use a small black strip curved into a small circle and a brad to hold it all together

Add some flameless candles for an eerie glow!

Stampendous and Spellbinders: A Huge Holiday Hop!

Tuesday through Thursday of this week, Stampendous has been collaborating with Spellbinders and other product partners, to encourage everyone to make this a handmade holiday! Prize info and links are below my project for today:

It's always fun to play with new crafting toys, and let's face it Spellbinders has some of the best! Especially, if you are mixing them with all of the great products from Stampendous as well.

My project is an old-fashioned cone ornament, a perfect way to add some little treats on the tree. I've used the die from the Spellbinder's "Create a Cone" die and embossing plate set to cut the cone shape from a piece of kraft cardstock. The Stampendous Cardinal Elements was stamped once on the cone in Rich Cocoa Memento ink from Tsukineko, and twice on a separate piece of kraft cardstock using the Rhubarb Stalk Memento ink. All pieces were ink-distressed with Peanut Brittle Memento ink. The cone was formed and adhered using Beacon Zip Dry Adhesive. I spread Beacon GemTac around the tip of the cone and the top edge, and covered this heavily with Stampendous Gold Crushed Glass Glitter. The second bird was cut out and adhered partially to the cone. The third bird's wing was cut out and popped up with dimensional foam tape.

I created a hanger with galvanized wire, and added a stamped Stampendous Greeting on a Spellbinder Grommet Tag Die, along with a fluffy May Arts ribbon bow. A bit of glittery tulle and some treats complete this sweet ornament gifty.
