*************************************************
Welcome to day 2, glad you are hopping with us this month!
For our second day, we are showcasing the Witchie set.


Here are the cards that I made using this stamp set. I decided to go with the accordian card. This is so easy to make especially because I used my Ultimate Crafter's Companion. I made these two cards in less that 2 mins. The best part?!?! No measuring!

What is even better? Using the excess part that you cut from the first card to make a second one!  

Using one sheet of pale pumpkin cardstock (8.5x11) to make an accordian card and a mini accordian.

 For the curved edge, I used the embossing that is on the Ultimate Crafters Companion Board.

MY TIP: take advantage of the craft store coupons. I bought the Ultimate Crafter's Companion at Michaels for $35.00!!!! I used the 50% off coupon. The UCC is a little pricy but with the coupon, so worth it!

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
