Hello everyone! WOWZA, first of all, thanks for all the lovely comments on my last few blog posts! You sure know how to make a girl feel good! I really enjoyed sharing the new Greetery release with you!! Thank you!! Today is WORLD CARD MAKING DAY! Yipppeeee! I've been saving a super fun card to share today. I love it so much and wanted to post it on WCMD! Are you celebrating with friends today, or at your local store? There are so many activities and sales going on. It's a fun celebration for sure. What better thing to celebrate than card making! I hope you have a good day and that you get in some creative time!
My card today uses loads of new supplies from Lawn Fawn. The finished card is a five inch square because I thought that big round pumpkin looked better on a square! Hee hee. Lots of layers on this one too... White card, then stripes, then black, then that gorgeous background die... I'll give you all the details, but let's look! Hey Ghoulfriends!!
I started this card by making my own card base from Neenah Solar White cardstock. I layered some Halloween Stripes (from my LSS) and then black. The top white layer was made with one of my all time favorite supplies from Lawn Fawn - that background die....swoon. It's perfect for every card! I set that all aside and set to work on the images.
I stamped the two little ghosties and the word bubble in black ink, and die cut them with the matching dies. I did a tiny bit of Copic Coloring to give them some color... The sentiment was heat embossed with white ink onto black cardstock. I set all those pieces aside...
BOO!
The pumpkin, stem, face, and leaves are all from two brand new stitched pumpkin die sets. I mixed and matched both sets to make the pieces. I used Distress inks to ink all the edges of everything, and the center of the pumpkin. I used my white gel pen to add accents over the face pieces.
Before I attached the pumpkin to the card, I used a bit of twine around the stem. I added glitter enamel dots to the leaves and gently folded the leaves up with my fingers.
Lawn Fawn has a new product out called Liquid Stardust. OOOH LA LA!! It's like pure liquid silver. So gorgeous and sparkly! I put some onto a stamping block and then used a small paint brush to splatter it all over the pumpkin and leaves. It's hard to see in the photo, but trust me... IT'S AMAZING!! I want to put it on everything!!
I turned the card towards the light to try to capture that shimmer from the Stardust. Oh man, that's pretty! The elements were all attached to the card using foam squares in different shapes and sizes. I used liquid glue to glue the two pieces of the pumpkin together.
