Whimsy Stamps - Gnome Trick Or Treat

Good Morning Everyone :-)

Today I am sharing with you the first of many Halloween Cards I will be creating.


This is Gnome Trick or Treat from Whimsy Stamps Digital Collection.


I printed the image onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock using my Brother Laser Printer.

Using a Cross Stitch Circle die from another brand a ran the image through my Sizzix Big Shot.


I coloured the image up using Copic Markers which I will have a full list of down below.

I pulled out my Tim Holtz Ranger Distress Inks (I have the minis however the big ones are the same if you have those). I used Seedless Preserves and a Mini Ink Blending Tool making sure I started blending off the image so I wouldn't get those horrible lines, make sure you are blending in nice smooth circles and keep the same pressure. 


I used Ink On 3 Liquid Pixie Dust to carefully drip all around my image and soak up using some Kitchen Paper Towel, it has an awesome effect on the Distress Ink. 


I printed papers from Whimsy Stamps Digital Paper Collections - Autumn Beauty and Wonky Circles, I used more distress ink to give them that Halloween look. I used Seedless Preserves and Black Soot. I matted the patterned papers on some old cardstock and some American Crafts Black Cardstock.


I wrapped some twine around the bottom two layers and adhered it using Scotch ATG. Finally I adhered all those layers to a Couture Creations Card Base. I found this old spider die from Memory Box called dangling spider, so glad I sorted some of my stamps and dies into theme draws :-)



I used some Foam dots to adhered the image on top of that layer and the twine. I then had this cool idea to add some spooky eyes to the background and remembered I had a big tub of googly eyes :-)



I used leftovers of the papers to decorate the inside of the card and finally we were complete. 




I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).
