Enjoy today

 Hi everyone,

Fall is right around the corner. The leaves are changing, the air is getting cooler and pumpkins are everywhere, including on my card.

I started by embossing my background with a Foliage embossing folder. I then sprayed it with Distress Mica stain sprays.

The pumpkins were die cut from several different colours of card stock and inked with Distress inks



I added faux grass to the bottom of my card and an Idea-ology sentiment inked with a Distress crayon. A little Statue foundry wax was added here and there to my card.


Well that’s it for my card today and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Supplies:
Tim Holtz Pumpkin Duo Colorize die set
Tim Holtz Foliage 3-D Texture Fades embossing folder
Idea-ology sentiment
Distress Mica  spray stains - Wicked Elixir, Burning Ember, Tarnished Brass

Feeling wicked

 Hi everyone,

As you can see I am still on the Halloween theme. Just can’t get enough. 


I started by creating my background with the Moon mask and Villainous Potion and Black Soot Distress spray stains. The moon middle was inked with Distress ink.

When I was finished the background I added some black stitching around the edges.

The witch was die cut from black foam so I could have some dimension. I die cut the cat from a piece of shrink plastic and added alcohol ink for the colour. 



I die cut the sentiment from black card stock and added a piece of white card stock behind which was sprayed with Iron gate Mica spray.stain.



I inked the edges of a white panel with gold metallic rub on and layered that onto a black panel.

Well that completes my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻🎃

Supplies:

Tim Holtz Toil & Trouble die set
Tim Holtz Bold Text Halloween die set
Tim Holtz Moon Mask
Distress spray stain - Villainous Potion, Black Soot
Distress Mica spray - Iron Gate

Something Wicked

 Hi everyone,

After watching Tim Holtz’ live last weekend I got to play with the Moon Mask stencils and some Distress spray  inks.



I started with a Distress #8 tag and using 2 Distress sprays and the Moon Mask I created this tag. It was pretty quick and simple but it does take a bit of practice for me with the ink spraying. The bats are from the new Tim Holtz / Stamper’s Anonymous The Scarecrow stamp set.

I also used a few sprays of the new Decayed Distress Mica Stain. It is such a great colour.

The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed with white embossing powder. I used my finger to add some metallic colour to the edges.

I used some gold metallic card stock and an Impresslits folder for the edging under the sentiment. I die cut 31 from black foam and added some Glossy accents over top.

Well that’s it for this quick tag and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Supplies:

Tim Holtz / Stamper’s Anonymous Moon Mask
Tim Holtz / Stamper’s Anonymous The Scarecrow stamp set
Distress Spray Stains - Wilted Violet, Black Soot
Distress Mica Stain - Decayed
