Bookmark Card for Hallowe'en with the Them Bones Patterned Paper

Happy Hallowe’en!

I hope you get loads of ghouls, goblins, witches, trick or treating at your house this evening. Hoping the weather holds and is dry for the little ones – and their grownups – heading out into the neighbourhood. Be watchful if you are out driving during those hours as they dart from house to house and enjoy shelling out!
Today's card is not only seasonal...it's practical! Showing two views with the little "bookmark" attached and when it is removed.

3D Notepad for a quick gift or stocking stuffer this year featuring the So Sincere Stamp Set

Another 3D craft item for stocking stuffers and little gifties for your friends, family members and co-workers. This is a simple 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" notepad from the dollar store. Just measure a piece of cardstock to fit on the front and decorate a way! I will make up a few of these to have on hand to give away to brighten someone’s day and keep them in my own car for when I need to write a note. Give it a go!

Winter Meadow - Winter Wishes

I really love this card layout – it’s just my style! A great way to use up scraps and pull your colour palette from a patterned paper design. In this case, it’s Winter Meadow Patterned Paper with Blueberry Bushel, Basic White and Lost Lagoon. The two pieces of patterned paper (shown vertically) are also embossed for a weathered look. The embossing folder on the Basic White layer is Distressed Tile 3D and you must get this while it’s still available. So versatile! 

Measurements

Card base: 8 ½” x 5 ½” in Blueberry Bushel
Inside layer: 4” x 5 ¼” in Basic White
Embossed layer: 4” x 5 ¼” in Basic White
Patterned Paper layers: 1 ½” x 4” and 7/8” x 4 ¾”
Horizontal cardstock layers: 1/8” x 4” and 3/8” x 4”
Scrap: Basic White and Lost Lagoon for die cutting the leaves and circle
