Halloween Card 2014 Number 09

Happy Halloween Everyone,

Today I'm going to show you the last card in the Halloween series. I thought Halloween would be perfect for the last card to be shown. I can start sharing my Christmas cards with you next week.

I used a unity Itty Bitty stamp creepy, Spooky & Scary and coloured them in using Promarkers. I simply fell in love with this stamp as soon as I saw it. It's so cute and cheeky. Instead of cutting out the image I decided to cut around the whole image. I coloured in the white background using a grey promarker. then I sponged the edges using distress ink pad. 

I cut out the background using die cutters by Xcut and put it through my Bigshot machine. I'm really loving my Bigshot. It's the best gift I got from my boyfriend. Thanks Dave x.

I used a 6" x 6" back to basics IV paper pack from Dovecraft for the back ground. I also sponged the edges with distress ink. I find that it softens the edges nicely. I used small stix2 foam pads on my trick or treat image  to the patterned paper. Then stuck it all down to the card base using bigger foam squares. The card base was the pre-scored black card stock pack T got a while ago. I'm not sure where I got it from or the company that make them. It sure has come in handy for my Halloween cards this year.

For the sentiment I stamped the sentiment From Lawn Fawn Happy Haunting stamp set and stamped it on the same paper I had used for the background of the image. I cut it out at an angle to give it more emphasis and appeal more to the eye. A little quirkiness as it's Halloween. I used vintage photo around the edges to pull the card together.

I love how this card turned out. I think it looks really cute and anyone would love to receive a card like this, whether you go trick or treating or not, it's still a fun card. 

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, hope you have an amazing Halloween. If you have made any Halloween cards this year I would love it if you shared them with me. I love seeing everyone's cards they've made. Please feel free to leave any comments below. 

Love
