It's beginning to get chilly in the evening and the days don't seem quite as long. I am feeling the season changing and so I am getting in the mood for fun and festive fall projects. For our new sketch challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments I decided to bust out the Monster Bash Bundle.
The Spooktacular Bash Stamp Set and the Ornate Frames Dies make up the Monster Bash Bundle. I used both of those along with Monster Bash Designer Series Paper on this card. I stamped with Momento Ink on Very Vanilla Cardstock and then colored with Stampin' Blends. To get an eerie look I scribbled over each colored image with the Color Lifter Stampin' Blend. Now this only works if your Color Lifter is like mine and a bit dirty!
What I absolutely love about making anything for Halloween is if you make a smudge, smear, tear, or color outside the lines it's totally okay. In fact this card features smearing, like I mentioned, and splattering with a Wink of Stella Brush.
I LOVE your card!!! I love the little frame tucked in behind Dracula and the smeary Stampin' Blends coloring. I am going to try that - it does give an eerie effect and any technique that looks better the less perfect I try to make it is a technique I LOVE.
