Mysterious, Leafy, Haunting and Magical by Jean Okimoto

The new Snowy Log – from our Winter Days Collection – becomes a leafy log with a fall print from the Nutmeg Forest 6×6 set.  Gold-specked Mysterious Mushrooms surround the popular Haunting Ghosts from the Fall Cornucopia Collection.  Hi, Jean here with a mix of dies from our fall and winter releases – taking advantage of how easy it is to mix design elements from Memory Box!

I didn’t forget to adhere the sides of the background rectangle  – they’re foam-taped for extra lift and shadows.  Really!

Cut Snowy Log from two shades of dark brown cardstock.  Match the woodgrain layer with the dark brown background of the Nutmeg Forest 6×6 leaf print – so the snowy layer resembles leaves falling on the log.

Cut Mysterious Mushrooms from the gold-specked Nutmeg Forest 6×6 and two shades of earthy reds from the Blush 6×6 set.  I cut the mushroom caps twice and chose diecuts with a good distribution of gold specks.

Cut Haunting Ghosts from watercolor paper.  Attach scraps of black cardstock behind the eye cutouts.

Stamp part of the greeting – from the new Magical Halloween Clear Stamp and Die Set – on orange cardstock from the Sunrise 6×6 set with Pinecone VersaFine Clair.  Quickly heat-emboss it with detail clear powder.  Trim the corners with a corner rounding punch.

Cut recycled Kraft cardstock with 2-½” x 7-½” Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die and trim the corners.

Attach the diecuts to a recycled Kraft slimline card (8-½” x 3-⅝”).  Use foam tape for the rectangle’s sides, the top of the ghosts and the 3 big mushroom caps.  Cut a slimline-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

Thanks for visiting our blog – see you again on Friday…
