Hello, Whimsy friends! It's Andrea with you today, and I'm especially eager to share my card with you. It features two new awesome die sets from the September release - Dracula Going Batty and Arched Window - and was a blast to create!
I started my card by creating that fun night sky. I placed a circle mask onto Bristol Smooth paper and ink-blended with Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves, Chipped Sapphire, and Black Soot distress inks. I removed the mask and flicked on some water droplets. To add the craters to my moon, I used a couple of violet Zigs and a waterbrush.
Once the panel was dry, I die-cut it with the Arched Window Die. Onto the rectangular section, I stamped a portion of the Spider Web Frame Background with Seedless Preserves and heat-embossed it with holographic embossing powder (It looks so cool in person!). I also white heat-embossed a sentiment from Halloweeners. From black cardstock I die-cut Dracula and two bats with the Dracula Going Batty Dies. I adhered the die-cuts to the ink-blended panels, trimming off any excess with my scissors.
I inked up an A2 panel of gray cardstock with gray ink over the Brick Pattern Stencil and adhered it to a white card. I die-cut the Arched Window Die a few more times - once from metallic cardstock and three times from black. I layered the frames together onto my card and tucked in the ink-blended pieces.
