BOO Card

Good evening everyone :-D 

Busy busy week behind me, but I managed to play in my crafty corner a bit. I made my first Halloween themed card this Friday and called it BOO Card.

For this card I used two different Halloween digital papers by Marie Stones that she shared for free on Free Digital Scrapbooking. I love all collection she shared there and can´t wait to use them all. :-D 

I printed two Meljen's Designs 'Pumpkin Pile' images on white card stock paper. I colored one image with my new colored pencils and aquarell colored pencils (gift from my boyfriend :-D ) and fussy cut it. The other image, I colored with distress ink, aquarell colored pencils (swirls), added glitters and glued cut out image on it. I also added a transparent glossy varnish on pumpkin´s leaves to create glossy effect. 

 

I made little bat embellishment using lovely freebie bat I found and googly eyes. I printed Halloween Silhouette Stickers, free printable from Paper Crave, on white card stock paper, cut out bat, colored edges and eyes with my black permanent marker and glued googly eyes on it. He is so funny. :-D

Sentiment is also freebie I found. I printed Freebie Halloween Ticket Digi Stamp by Kimberly M. Landmesser on Orange Plaid digital paper from 'Gone Orange' collection by Marie Stones, cut out sentiment (it is just a part from original digital sentiment Kimberly shared), distressed edges and glued it to black card stock paper.

Card dimensions are 105 mm x 148 mm (4 1/8" x 5 7/8").
