A Scary Boo card – Stamping Dreams Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Dreams Blog Hop. Our theme this month is ‘Ghosts and Goblins’ which is always a bit of a challenge for me as Halloween is not a big deal in the UK so I don’t have any Halloween stamp set. After a bit of thought I settled on using the Sweetest Star stamp set to make my card.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the scary boo card, you will need:

Peach Pie card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Old Olive card – 5¼” by 1¾”
Basic White card – 4” by 3¼”
Gorgeous Grape card – 3⅞” by 3⅛”
Basic White card – 3¾” by 3”
Old Olive card – 3” by 2½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Gorgeous Grape and Basic Black card

 

The ‘gingerbread’ stamp from the Sweetest Star stamp set was stamped all over the Peach Pie card front with Peach Pie ink. I flagged the end of the strip of Old Olive card and added it to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the So Swirly Embossing Folder I embossed the 3¾” by 3” piece of Basic White card. I swiped the Peach Pie ink pad over the debossed side to add colour to the panel before adhering it to the Gorgeous Grape panel and then to the 4” by 3¼” piece of Basic White card. This was then glued to the card front.

I stamped the ‘gingerbread’ image with Versamark ink onto the piece of Old Olive card, covered it with White Embossing Powder before setting it with Heat Tool. The image was then punched out using the Sweetest Star Punch. Using a Blending Brush, I added Old Olive ink to the edges of the punched-out image before adding the image to the card front on Dimensionals.

From scrap Gorgeous Grape and Basic Black card, I die the letters BOO. I glued the Gorgeous Grape letters onto the Basic Black letters, slightly off set to give a shadow. The word was then added to the card front.
