Halloween for Try it on Tuesday


Hi everyone. Very pleased to be popping up over at Try in on Tuesday today as a Guest Designer. I used to be on the DT with this lovely group and what a great challenge blog and team of
crafters !
The theme is 'It's Frightening' so I made this Halloween card using a Tim Holtz layering stencil - 'Shatter' as my background. First I covered my card with wild honey and rusty hinge distress inks, I then added versamark through the stencil before adding thick, clear embossing powder. Once heat dried I added black soot distress ink over my card - but, of course, it only added colour to the non embossed areas.
A spider die cut, a chit chat sticker and my sentiment were added before a little ribbon and mounting on some embossed kraft core card.

I would like to enter:
Our Creative Corner - Halloween Horrors
The Mixed Media Card Challenge - Orange and Black

Have great day.
Nikki

    Lovely to see you as our guest designer Nikki. A terrific card and very scary as I am not a spider fan at all.
