Stampin’ Up! Bag of Bones for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones bundle is a fun Halloween theme stamp and die bundle that has the best skeleton stamps and dies for a Haunted Halloween. I paired this bundle with the wonderful Them Bones designer series paper for a card depicting a spooky night of fun. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a theme challenge this week and and I chose Halloween:

I adhered a panel of the night time graveyard Them Bones designer series paper to the front of a Starry Sky card base. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones photopolymer stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Pumpkin Pie and cut it out with the second smallest banner from the Nested Essentials dies. I adhered it to the card with liquid glue.

I cut a skeleton from the Them Bones designer series paper with the Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones dies. I cut the cowboy hat and boots from Crumb Cake and adhered them to the skeleton with liquid glue and adhered the skeleton to the card front with pieces of dimensionals.

I use the cat and dog skeleton dies to cut skeletons from the Them Bones designer series paper and adhered them to the card front with liquid glue. I finished the card front with glow in the dark bats.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones stamp set in Cajun Craze ink on Basic White. I stamped the bats in Memento Tuxedo Black and trimmed the bottom with a strip of DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Thanks to the coordination between the dies in the Stampin’ Up! Bag Of Bones bundle and the Them Bones designer series paper, this card came together pretty quickly! Alternatively, when I finish cutting the skeleton images from the DSP, I can stamp them and cut them out with the dies. So this is going to provide Halloween crafting fun for a long time!
