Just Flying By!


I was hoping to post this card last night, but Blogger wasn't cooperating with me.  This spooky scene was created using only two stamps.  On a piece of glossy white paper I stamped the trees and Halloween witch in StazOn Black.  Next, I punched a 1 3/8" circle from a post-it note as a mask for the moon.  The background was sponged in Bordering Blue, Distress Bundled Sage, Distress Shabby Shutters, Distress Peeled Paint, Distress Weathered Wood, Distress Faded Jeans, SU Night of Navy and Distress Black Soot.

 
Before I removed the mask I applied Tsukineko Sheer Sparkle Shimmer Spritz to the scene.  I mounted the focal image to a piece of Kiwi Kiss paper then onto a black linen card.


The inside sentiment was stamped in Kiwi Kiss and embossed with clear embossing powder and a heat gun.


I hope you are excited about Halloween as much as I am!  Please be sure to stop back tomorrow to have some spooky tea with me.
