If You Can't Fly

Good morning everyone, as Halloween nears I wanted to share another spooky card with you!!  For this card I used the witch from the newly released Cackle On stamp set and the digi trees from the Sleigh Ride stamp set from Sparkle N Sprinkle.

To start the card I needed to make my background using the Lacy Background techinque.  Using a piece of sticker paper placed on top of white cardstock, remove the backing and place the spider web lace on top.  I used Night Sky first, burnish well with my finger.  The lace was removed and the lace was covered with Sparkling Snow and burnish well.  It really created a spooky background for my witch.

Using  Spellbinder's circle dies the moon was die cut from CS.  I layer two of the dies together on top of sticker paper to make the outer ring for the moon.  The backing was removed and glittered using Purple Rain glitter.  The edges of the moon was inked and a small line of glitter was added around the moon with a glue pen and Orange Surprise glitter.

My witch was stamped with versamark onto the moon and embossed using Black Detail EP.

Next the fence was punched using MS punch.  A little sparkle was added on the fence using a glue pen, Purple Rain and Sassy Silver glitter.

To create the slime, dimensional glue was placed on acetate and covered with Green Nugget glitter.  Allow the slime to dry overnight, then peel away from the acetate and you have glittery slime.

The tree were made using the digi Sleigh Ride stamp set.  It were enlarged and printed using a laser printer.  The tree was then fussy cut out and foiled using my Anna Griffin Minc machine and silver foil.  

The cute little ghost was die cut using Anna Griffin die.  The raised embossing was glittered using a glue pen and Orange Surprise glitter.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!!  Have a wonderful weekend and remember....Keep Stamping!!

Halloween

Good afternoon all, hope you had a great weekend!!  Today I would like to share a layout and card using the newly released Cackle Stamp set from Sparkle N Sprinkle.  For these 2 projects I used the digi version of the witch and increased the size.  

Here you can see how perfect the enlarged witch is for a cute embellishment for this layout.  All that is needed is the cute little ghost and gobblins!  I'll have to wait until Oct 31st to finish this layout!!

For the second project I printed the digi version of the Cackle Stamp set from my laser printer and then covered it with silver minc foil and ran it through the machine for this pretty silver witch.  Two different looks using the same stamp set.  

Hop on over to Sparkle N Sprinkle to see all the newly released stamp set, rubber and digi!

Thanks so much for stopping by have a wonderful day and remember....Keep Stamping!!

Keep Calm and Cackle On

Good afternoon everyone, hope you are having a wonderful weekend!!  The weather here in my neck of the woods, is absolutely beautiful cool and no humidity.  I hope you were able to join Sparkle N Sprinkle for their October Reveal, there were 6 stamp sets to be won.  I gave you a sneak peek of a card to come and here it is!!

This is made with the new Cackle On stamp set just released.  To start my card I needed to create the bold moon for that cute little witch.  

I started with this ink and a sponge dauber to create the outer ring of the moon.

Next came the spiced marmalade and it was blended with the violet.

Here is the finished moon.

Next came the background for the card.  Using a piece of white cardstock, and several distress ink pad the background colors were added to the cardstock.  HERE is a tutorial for this technique.  

Once the background color was achieved it was embossed using Tim Holtz's spider web folder.  Using a blending sponge black ink was sponged on top of the raise portion of the spider web.

Using Spellbinder's Circle Dies, a circle was cut from the background.  The witch was stamped with versamark and embossed using Black Detail EP.  The moon layer was placed underneath the background layer.  Using a glue pen around the edge of the moon glitter was added using Orange Surprise glitter.

To create the embellishment I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set using versamark and Black Detail EP.  It was then punched with a circle punch, inked.  A second circle was punched from purple CS and offset behind the sentiment.  Ribbons were added.

Thanks so much for stopping by, over the next few days the final 2 project from the October Reveal will be revealed!!  Hope you will come on back to see all the details!!  

Have a wonderful weekend and remember....Keep Stamping!
