What's spookier than a vase full of spiders? This Halloween card features the Spiders Are Seen Cling Mounted Rubber Stamp from Red Rubber Designs.
My design inspiration came from the October Card Sketch Challenge @ Scrapbook.com, using sketch #1.
My design inspiration came from the October Card Sketch Challenge @ Scrapbook.com, using sketch #1.
I colored all of my backgrounds with Distress Inks and water. The stamping was done using a permanent black ink, and embossed with Ranger's Rainbow Sparkle Embossing Powder, including the fun sentiment.
For even more sparkle, I applied Purple Stickles to the black, square brads, which have been in my stash for a very long time. It always feel great to use up those old supplies!
I colored the lace with inks and sprays, using two strips on top of each other to show the scalloped edge, and making it twice as wide. Then I used some purple ribbon across the center of it, hiding the line of the original square, spider wed stamp, which I stamped twice, to give it more length. Finally I popped up my image after hand-stitching a circle around it, and using Clear Wink Of Stella on the swirly parts of the vase. The Be Scary Cling Mounted Rubber Stamp also has this image, and can be found at Red Rubber Designs, with a fabulous selection of other Autumn & Halloween Cling Mounted Stamps.
Thanks so much for your visit!
