Thought
I would dip my toes into a Halloween(ish) card.
Supplies
That's Crafty! Dinky Stencils:– Crow Background, Spider’s Web
PaperArtsy Fresco Paints:-
Old Gold, Blueberry, Snowflake,
Infusions:- Royal Blood, Black Knight
Staz-on
Timber Brown
Extras:-
Lucky enough to receive this die cut of Spellbinders Seth Apter Etched Die Set Drip Drop, Jute Ribbon, Lace, Muslin, Tea stained cardstock
Instructions
I had
this background leftover from last year, only adding some stencilling but to
make the background:-
Tear
muslin and layer onto cardstock panel. Apply Blueberry, misting generously with water to blend, incorporating
Snowflake. Mix 50:50 ratio of water and
Old Gold into mister bottle. Spray onto
panel.
Stencil
cobweb onto upper corner with Black Soot ink. Continue to stencil the cobweb but only lightly, a subtle pattern. Stencil crows so they rest onto muslin layer.
Tea
stain cardstock and muslin (the stamped Poe and stained muslin were again
leftovers!). Stamp Poe with Timber
Brown. Layer to Seth Apter die cut,
applying Royal Blood and Black Knight to the die cut and to lace.
Embellish
with jute ribbon and stained muslin.

Love the image of Poe! Your spooky background is a delight and I love that Seth frame, the whole card has a wonderful Halloween eerie quality to it! x
ReplyDeleteWonderfully atmospheric and subtle, this really evokes the mood of Poe! I love how you used the Seth die-cut and the ravens are fabulous! The texture on this is just terrific! xx
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful to see close up photos of your wonderful Halloween tag, dear Lynne. I love how you added muslin and your choice of colors, adds extra spooky feelings to your piece.The crows looks also great sitting there on the ground waiting for something to happen. I wonder if I should find my own Haunted stampset :-) . xx
