Hello, friends! It´s Silvana from Casa Magnolia here and welcome to the Picket Fence Studios´ blog! Today I want to share with you a Halloween card made with a sweet die from the last release. It´s called Nibbles the Candy ghost die and it´s so cute!!!
The die is like a cover die where you have all the pieces in one plate die. So, you can die cut once and color every piece with ink and the Pint sized paper Pouncers for example, but I decided I was going to use Paper Glaze for extra color and shine. So I cut four pieces of lightweight cardstock and spread over every piece a light and even amount of Paper Glaze in Marigold Orange, Agapanthus Purple and Daffodil Yellow colors. The remaining piece was made with Paper Glaze Luxe: Twinkle Lights . After all the pieces were dried, I cut them and put them aside as I started working on the background.
For the bakground I used the new Flowing 6x8 stencil with a grey ink and some drops of the new Paper Splatter Opaque Black. I cut the background in a piece of 3"x4 1/4" and glued it in the middle of a top folding card base. I put a thin strip of black cardstock in both ends to add contrast and a little detail. Then I started to assemble the little ghost and the rest from the different color pieces that I´ve already made.
For the sentiment I cut extra layers of a white cardstock and stack and glued them together for dimension. There are some details made with black cardstock, like the bats, the eyes and the hat base.
And that´s my little sweet ghost card! I´m very pleased with the result, specially with the colors that the Paper Glazes give to the card, bright and shiny.
I hope you liked it and try your own version.
Thank you so much for stopping by. See you in my next post.
Have a wonderful day!
Silvana.
