Have a Fun & Spooky Halloween
Hi crafty friends! I am very excited to be a guest designer for Gerda Steiner Designs. I’m sharing a spooky scene card featuring the Halloween Ghosts Stamp set.
For this card, I created the background first by water
coloring an A2-sized panel. I used two different shades of purple and swiped
the color horizontally across the entire panel. Next, I created a grounding
element by trimming a piece of blue cardstock and lightly blending the edges with
blue ink. Then I splattered the background and the trimmed panel with diluted
white paint for interest.
I stamped the images with Copic-friendly ink and used my
Copic Markers to color everything in. I also created the moon by die-cutting a
circle and adding shading with my markers.

Using a sweet sentiment from the stamp set, I white heat embossed it onto a piece of blue cardstock and adhered all of the elements to the front of my card panel using foam adhesive, liquid glue, or glue dots.
I hope you enjoyed my card today, and I will be back next week with another guest design project featuring the Halloween Ghosts Stamp
set.

Too Cute to Spook
Hello everyone, Dania here again (aka Dania's Doodles) excited to be guest designing once again. This time I got a change to play with "Halloween Ghosts" and a very cute "BOO" die. The "BOO" is just darling. My favorite feature about this die was the shadow. The shadow has the opennings for the "O's". Oh and how I love this design. I can just see googly eyes inserted! @@
For my first project, I created a slimline card. I started by inkblending the background using Distress Oxide inks to create a moonlit night sky. The little ghosts were colored in alcohol markers in a pale blue for a slight glowy shadow. To create the moon, cut and adhere a circle mask. Then ink the background in colors of your choice, remove the mask and ink in the moon overlapping into the dark sky for an extra glow. Splatter white paint for added interest. The small sentiments included fit perfectly in the sign carried by the one ghost. For this card I cut the BOO shadow in vellum.
For my second card, I designed an A2 sized card. Wanting once again to showcase all the ghosts I used a wonky grid background and pattern paper. Grids like this one is a great guide to group objects. The ghost in this case were colored in pencil with no lines. I used the main senitment in the set, but made sure the ghost holding the sign got his sentiment. :)
I want to thank Gerda for trusting me to showcase a couple of her darling stamp sets this month. You can find my work on Facebook and Instagram.
AND don't forget about the monthly challenges for a chance to win. I have won a couple of times and it has been a thrill to shop the cuteness.
Thank you again,
Dania
