Hello and welcome! This is Mendi here today, popping in to share some fall scene cards featuring our Happy Howl-o-ween Stamps and Bewitching Stamps with dramatic inky backgrounds.
For my first card of the day, I paired the cats & caldron from our Bewitching Stamps and Grat Cat Stamps, doing my best to hide the graduation cap on the one kitty with an extra Witch's hat. I framed my scene with a Stitched Oval 2 Die and added my sentiment from the Bewitching set onto the Brilliant Banner 2 Dies, which I had inked up to match the dripping, bubbling brew using Crush Olive and Twisted Citron Distress Ink. I added another dog wearing a Witch costume and riding a broomstick over the top right corner from the Happy Howl-o-ween Stamps.
For my card's background, I started by inking a piece of white cardstock with Seedless Preserves Distress Ink. I then ran the oversized panel through my diecutting machine using our Sunburst Embossing Folder. After drying the distress ink really well with my heat gun, I then used a brayer to apply VersaMark Ink to the raised surface of my background, and sprinkled it with the Seedless Preserves Distress Glaze powder. Despite my best attempts to stay only on the surface, some embossing ink still made it's way onto some of the bottom sunrays so I used a small angled paint brush to remove as many of the stray bits of powder as possible. If you look closely I didn't achieve complete perfection, but I think I came pretty close and I was really pleased with the cool look this technique created, even if a bit more distressed than my typical style.
That wraps up my projects for today. Thanks so much for hanging out with me. I hope I've inspired you to spread a little happiness by sending out a card to someone you love. 💛
