Fall/Halloween cards are one of my favorite to create! Summertime is my ultimate favorite season, but who can resist all the pretty colors of Fall!
I created this card, as a Design Team Member, for...
Try a Sketch on Tuesday Challenge #657.
A fun sketch which was perfect for a Halloween card!
For my "Boo" card, I used Stampin' Up! Scenic Pumpkin Patch & Playful Ghosts Stamp Sets, Stylish Shapes & Countryside Corners Dies along with Halloween Spells DSP and of course Wink of Stella.
My card base is from the Halloween Memories Two-Tone Cardstock. This cardstock is not as sturdy as Basic White, but still makes a fun card!
Basic White is the next layer, with Halloween Spells DSP and adhered on the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. Isn't this DSP cool?
The 2nd & 3rd largest dies from the Countryside Corners Dies were used for the focal image.
On the smaller Basic White die cut, I started by stamping the pumpkins and stems along the bottom (from Scenic Pumpkin Patch Stamp Set), using Calypso Coral & Garden Green inks. I also stamped portions of the fence on each side of the pumpkins with Pebbled Path ink.
The mask was created by die cutting a small circle using Stylish Shapes Dies, using a piece of printer paper. The circle die cut was placed over where I wanted the moon to be. Using a Blending Brush and Memento ink, added color randomly darker and lighter over 3/4 of the cardstock.
For the bottom portion (where the pumpkins are), I used a Blending Brush and Old Olive ink to lightly add color.
Next, I stamped the bats over the top portion with Memento ink.
Finally, I removed the circle mask and placed the printer paper over the cardstock to reveal only the circle. Using a Blending Brush and Crushed Curry ink, the moon was created.
Linen Thread was wrapped around the card layers twice and tied in a bow.
The stamped die cut was adhered on the larger Basic White die cut shape with Stampin' Dimensionals, and adhered onto the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
Drusy Adhesive-Backed Embellishments add a fun sparkly touch on my card.
The sentiment was stamped with Memento ink and color added around the edges with Memento ink.
The ghost was stamped with Memento ink and colored with Crumb Cake, Pumpkin Pie, Pool Party, Basic Black, Pecan Pie & Blackberry Bliss Stampin' Blends Markers. I fussy cut the image and adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals.
Wink of Stella was brushed on the broom & buckle on the hat. I also splattered Wink of Stella on the entire card front.
Inside my card is a 1" strip of DSP along the bottom of Basic White. A partial image of the ghost was stamped with Memento ink and on the left and the sentiment was also stamped with Memento ink.
DSP was adhered on the envelope flap and trimmed.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today.
