Hi Stampers,
I made myself a deal to try to share more "just because stuff about me" on my blog... So here's one of thise - I'm a total Walking Dead junkie!! How many fellow Walking Dead fans do I have out there???? I'm so excited that a new season has started - Last night's episode was intence and I'm looking forward to seeing where this season takes everyone!
Today I'm sharing another card from September's Stamp Camp - this card was a CASE of a card I saw and fell in LOVE with!! A fellow Julie created this card... and the second I saw it I had to make one for myself - thanks for the inspirations Julie!!
The original card I saw used Dots in the background but I really wanted to play with my new Hearts and Stars masks so I changed it up a bit and used stars. I like the way it came out! I used the Brayer and lightly rolled over the stars mask to create a subtle - rough look to the stars in the background - you could also use a Stampin' Sponge and sponge the ink over the mask.
To stamp the Happy Halloween Greeting - I inked up the stamp with Tangelo Twist ink. Then I used my Blender pen to rub the ink off the area of the stamp with the houses and trees. Next just take your Basic Black Stampin' Write marker to add ink to the areas you just cleaned off - huff on your stamp a big and stamp! A quick and easy way to color your stamp!
For the Ribbon we stapled over the card I used some retired Basic Black Satin ribbon - but if you don't have any black satin ribbon this card woudl look FABULOUS with some Blackberry Bliss Stitched Satin ribbon used in place of the black - so I'll add that to my supply list below for you...
