It’s STAMPtember!

It’s the most wondeful time of the year! Get ready for a month-long celebration of stamping, inspiration, and community. I can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on!

Today’s card features two new products from Simon Says Stamp: Haunted Pumpkin die set and Dotted Spiral embossing folder. I loved combining these two new products to create this spooky card.

Step 1: Create the Background

Cut a piece of black cardstock to 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″. Lightly spritz the cardstock with water, place inside the embossing folder and run it through your die cutting machine. Be sure to use the proper “sandwich” for a 3D embossing folder.

Next, splatter the embossed piece with Pawsitively Perfect White Splatter Medium. Set aside to dry.

Using a white pigment ink pad, gently run it across the top of the black embossed panel. Be careful to not push hard on the ink pad – you just want the raised areas to get inked.

Step 2: Diecutting

Die cut 3 ghosts from white cardstock. If you want to add more dimesion, die cut a couple extra of each ghost and stack them together with liquid adhesive.

Trim the black embossed panel to 5 1/4″ x 4″. Cut another piece of black cardstock to 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″.

Choose a sentiment from the Spooky Salutations Reverse Sentiment Strips (or anothere set) and trim it out. Color the white edge of the strip with a black marker.

Step 3: Assemble Card

Adhere the black embossed panel to the center of the larger black panel. Adhere the sentiment to the center of the spiral pattern. Next, adhere the ghosts around the sentiment. Add a few silver sequins or stars to add a little more sparkle. Lastly, adhere the whole thing to an A2 card base.

Super quick and spooky cute!
