31 Nights of Halloween - Night 25

Good Evening Whimsy Friends - Iris here today with another frightful post for our 31 Nights of Halloween Celebrations! 

There are LOTS of boo-tiful prizes to win. Please click the banner above to enter the giveaway!

 

Now onto my spooky birthday card I've created especially for this frightfully fun event:

I am using some older and newer products on my card but the main focus is on 'Dracula I compel you' together with 'Dracula's Coffin' die set. For the background I cut out a window from a 4" x 5 1/4" white cardstock panel using the 'Wavy Stitched Squares' die set. Then I added a piece of designer paper from the 'Vampire' 6x6 paper pack. I adhered this panel to a red 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" card base.

I stamped the Dracula image with Versafine Clair ink onto mixed media paper, colored it using my Karin markers and fussy cut it. Then I die cut the tombstones from the  'Dracula's Coffin' die set from scrap pieces of the same Vampire 6x6 paper pack. The trees are die cut from black glitter paper using the 'Tree Assortment' dies. The bats are created with dies from both the 'Dracula I compel you' and
'Dracula's Coffin' die set and cut from black cardstock. The scull was die cut from white cardstock and slightly inked with Antique Linen  Distress ink. The sentiment is included with the 'Dracula I compel you' clear stamp set. The RIP sign is from the 'Build-A-Graveyard' die set. 
I arranged my items the way I wanted them on my background panel and then adhered them with liquid glue and foam tape/squares. At last I added tiny red rhinestones to Dracula's eyes and also eyes to some of the bats with a white gel pen. 

I wanted the inside to have a matching sentiment too and stamped with Versafine Clair Nocturn ink and embellished with a few stamped bats. All stamps I used on the inside are included with the 'Dracula I compel you' clear stamp set as well.

All Whimsy products I've used to create my project are listed and linked below.
