I love making Halloween cards and Your Next Stamp has lots of fabulous Halloween stamps and dies! I decided to use a few different sets to make this Halloween card. I started my card by inking the background. I diecut some grassy slopes and blended on some Forest Moss Distress Oxide Ink; I thinned some black acrylic paint and spattered that onto the slopes using a small paint brush. For the night sky, I used Wilted Violet, Chipped Sapphire, and Black Soot Distress Oxide Inks. I spattered both white and black acrylic paint that I thinned with water onto the night sky. I chose images from the Halloween Phoebe and Waddles Trick or Treat stamp sets. I stamped the images, colored them with copics, and diecut them with the coordinating dies. I also diecut some trees from black cardstock using the Spooky Halloween Scene Die Set. I diecut the moon using a circle die and sponged it with distress oxide inks (sorry, I neglected to jot down the inks I used for the moon). I used a white gel pen to add some highlights and I used Nuvo Crystal Glaze on the penguins' beaks and feet. I adhered some of the images directly to the card and I used foam tape on some of them for added interest and dimension.
I want to thank Karen and Julie for having me guest for them, it was so much fun!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Anita
