HAPPY HALLOWEEN WITH THE SCRAPPY TAILS CRAFTS

 Hello crafty friends! I'm here today with a new Halloween card I made in collaboration with Scrappy Tails Crafts.

I started cutting a 5,5"x4,25" panel from white cardstock and I used the "Wonky Spiderweb" stencil and I ink blended weathered wood and black soot Distress Oxide inks through it. I splattered with clean water and white, black and silver Dsitress paints and I set it aside.

Once dry, I used the new "Cute Halloween" five layers stencil to add some texture on it with black opaque Dsitress texture paste and crypt Distress grit paste (I used the layer with bats, spiders, ghost faces and the one with stars).

I used the "A2 Ghost Shaped Card" set die to cut the cutest ghost ever and the "Skull & Ghost Duo Add-on" set to cut a bat/papillion for him, I colored the bow with alcohol markers and I darkened the edges of the ghost with lost shadows Distress Oxide ink.

I then used a die from my stash to cut a black frame for my ghost, I put everything together and I attached on my cardbase with some foam tape for a bit of dimension.


I heat embossed a sentiment from the "Ghostly Sentiment" stamp set on balck cardstock, I pu it on the card and that's all.



Thank you so much for spending some time with me today.
Happy crafting, Silvia!!

BOO

Hello my dear friends! It's time for a new Halloween card I made in collaboration with The Rabbit Hole Designs.


I started cutting a panel from white cardstock and I used the fantastic "Falling Leaves" stencil to create a pattern on it with  wilted violet and carved pumpkin Distress Oxide inks.


I darkend edges with black soot Distress Oxide ink and I splattered with clean water first, tone on tone inks and white, black and silver Dsitress paints.


I stamped the cute pumpkins from the "Silly Pumpkins" stamp set, I colored them with Spectrum Noir markers and I fussy cut them.


I glued the pumpkins on a piece of black cardstock to create a shadow behind them  to let them pop out.



I die cut the word BOO with some alpha dies from my stash in black and I put everything together using a mix of liquid glue and foam tape.


I put everything together with a mix of liquid glue and foam tape, I added some black jewels here and there and that's all.
Thank you so much for passing by and I hope you'll enjoy the card.
I wish you an amazing new week. Big hugs, Silvia.

JUST A LITTLE HOCUS POCUS WITH SCRAPPY TAILS CRAFTS

Hi there! I'm here to share with you a Halloween card featuring the new amazing release by Scrappy Tails Crafts.



I started cutting a 4,25"x5,5" panel from a mixed media white cardstock and I colored it with the super "Cute Halloween Five Layers" stencil and a lot of Distress Oxide inks.



I used lost shadow for the first layer, squeezed lemonade for the second, carved pumpkin for the third, wilted violet for the fourth and the new Distress texture paste black opaque for the last layer.



I then darkened edges with black soot Distress Oxide ink, I splattered with clean water and white, black and silver Distress paints and I set it aside.



I decided to create a potion bottle for my card, so I used the "Message in a Bottle" die set to make it and I colored all my pieces with twisted citron, mowed lawn, rustic wilderness, speckled egg and wilted wiolet Distress Oxide inks, I splattered with clean water and tone on tone inks and I let it dry.



I die cut one of the adorable little ghosts from the "A7 vertical Stripe Ghost Cover" die set, I colored it with alcohol markers and I glued all the pieces together.

I stamped one of the sentiment from the "Ghostly Sentiment" stamp set in black and I put everything together using a mix of liquid glue and foam tape.



I also added some jewels from the "Glowbuster" mix inside of the bottle just to create a bubble effect and they're so cool 'cause they glow in the dark!



That's all for today; thank you so much for stopping by.

I wish you an amazing new week! Big hugs, Silvia.

HAPPY FALL WITH LAWN FAWN

Hellooooooo!!!! It's still hot over there, but it's becoming creespy in the morning and in the evening and this makes me like Fall is around the corner.

So I'm here today to share with you this "Happy Fall" card I made with Lawn Fawn die sets and stencil.

I started creating my background using the beautiful "Fall Leaves Background" stencil blending a lot of Distress Oxide inks (bundle sage, crackling campfire,aged mahogany, rustic wilderness, wild honey and rusty hinge).

I darkened edges with walnut stain Distress Oxide ink and I splattered with clean water, tone on tone inks and white and gold Distress paints.

I then die cut all the pieces I needed to create my card: some cream with the "Stitched Cupcake" die set, two glasses with the new "Build a Drink" die set and some apples and leaves with the "Build a Burrel: Apple" die set.

I also die cut the "Giant Happy Fall" three times from white cardstock and I ink blended one of them with uncharted mariner Distress Oxide ink.

I ink blended all the die cut pieces too, using kitsch flamingo and lumberjack plaid Distress Oxide inks for the apple and the apple juice, and to create a frosted look to the glasses I paited them with Distress Crackle paint.

I put everything together with a mix of liquid glue and foam tape and that's all.


I'm sooooo happy of how this card turned out and I really hope you like it as much as I do.

Thank you so much for passing by and I wish you an amazing day.

Big hugs, Silvia.
