Hello there crafty friend!
I'm back with a fun Halloween card for Unity's latest release. Christmas is definitely my favorite season to make cards for, but Halloween is a close second! And I am loving the adorable {Boo} to You stamps from Unity! This adorable set of stamps is also available in photopolymer... {Clearly Unity} Boo to You. Are you loving that Unity is now offering some stamps in photopolymer?! I do!
Such adorable stamps! I, of course, love the kitty! I had to include it with the ghost. I stamped the kitty and ghost using Black Amalgam ink from Gina K. Designs and then I colored them up with my Copic markers. I then die cut them using a die from the Scallops & Circles {nesting dies}.
Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Ghost: C00, C1, C3
Hat: YG11, YG23, V000, V12, V15, V17, N2, N4, N6
Pumpkin: YR21, YR15, YR16
Cat: R00, R20, N0, N2, N4, N6
Ground: C00, C3
Inspiration for my card today comes from an older Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch... lucky number 13! Haha! This is a favorite and it works really well with scraps! I had a bunch of scraps in my Trick or Treat {paper pack} so this was the perfect sketch. Of course, I altered it, but the basic design was my starting point.
I didn't want to use a larger circle to mat the ghost circle so I just die cut a circle from True Black card stock from Papertrey Ink and offset it from the focal circle. I really like the dimension it gives to the card. I stamped the sentiment using Black Amalgam ink and trimmed it up. I mat it with black card stock.
I adhered the circles together and then I adhered the sentiment to the bottom portion making sure it was lined up on the card where I wanted it. I was then able to add foam tape to the back of both pieces and then I popped them up on the card. To finish it off, I added three black enamel dots. Such a fun card to make! I hope you have an ink-redible day!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.
Inky hugs,
Crystal
