BOO card with Wood Shapes

 I used products that I have had for a while now, some new as well.


I started with my back ground.
I used some Fresh Snow paste from Taylored Expressions - its their Happy Medium.
I am also using their Black Licorice card stock.
The stencil is from Scrapbook.com and is called little ghosts.

I believe I got these wood pieces last year at Micheal's.

They had a few different designs, I choose the ghost with the big open mouth and the BOO
I have two embossing pads - Versa Mark.
I have a clean one and a dirty type one.


I first inked up the wood die cut with Dill Pickle ink from Taylored Expressions.
I also dried the wood die cut before adding the Versa Mark and Zing Green Glitter embossing powder.

This is three layers of the Recollections Snow embossing powder from Micheal's.

I decided to embosse with the same Recollections Snow powder.
I decided to cut out the panel using a Scaloped Rectangle die from the Stamps of Life.

Since the Ghost and BOO have dimension, I did not want to add any more.
 I used Tombow Mono Liquid Glue to adhere everything.
I decided I wanted the card base to look like the boo wood die cut.
I used Dill Pickle card stock and more of the Zing Embossing Powder and just used Versa Mark around the edge of the card stock mat.

This is the side view.
This card may have to be hand deliverd or require a little extra postage.

I used Dill Pickle ink and a stamp set called Boo-Day from Catherine Pooler designs.
My card base is from Taylored Expressions - Sugar Cube.

I used my back of the card stamp set that I got from Altnew and paired it with the same Catherine Pooler stamp set.

Rainbow Paint Card

 I decided to use something I have not and wanted a rainbow theme.

I brought out some items from Taylored Expressions and the Stamps of Life to accomplish this.

I am using Pink and Main Ice Rink card stock to ink blend.
I find this card stock has been the best quality other then Bristol Smooth card stock

I am using ink from the Stamps of Lie.
Strawberry, Tangerine, Sunshine, Green Apple, Blueberry - for the brush strokes.

Taylored Expressions ink blending tools work wonders.

I lightly inked anouther panel, going heavier on the edges. 
These will be for the inside of the cards.

I cut the brush handles from Grape card stock and the brush bristles from Vanilla card stock.
The band is from a Silver Pearl card stock.

This is just a few of my enamel dot stash.  I started in the begining by storeing them by color, then I just threw them in a drawer as well.

My card base is also Twig card stock from the Stamps of Life.
