Halloween Pop-up Card

An A2 sized step pop-up card was the project I decided on after a bit of inner turmoil caused by the wheel parameters on Craft Roulette . A deep breath and moment of silence brought me the ideas.

Using a card style I learned from CardzTv by Mary on YouTube I got started.

The season has finally begun to feel and look like Fall so the colors came easy. We have just gotten and tried out the Trick or Treat die and I thought it was fun to use as window signage. We did the Boo-tique letters on our Silhouette machine to finish the signage. I used an embossing folder to get the brick work done. Vellum for the window that has spider webs and a ghost behind it. The pumpkins were cut using 2 different die sets as well as the cat popping up from the custom cut pumpkin. I used colored pencils on the brick and pumpkins for colors and textures. 

I would say the card turned out pretty good. Enjoy. 

Until next time...

Thomas

Birthday Card - Mixed Media for Craft Roulette Cardmaking Challenge #234

Craft Roulette Card Making Challenge - Episode #234 Parameters   Project - 6 x 6 card Colors - Rainbow (any or all) Element - Single Flower Random - Cloth I love mixed media, so I really enjoyed putting this card together. I used torn Toile tissue paper (you can find it HERE in my Etsy Shop ) to partially cover the background. The dress is die cut from patterned scrapbook paper, pulling in colors of red, green and yellow from the rainbow. I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo to vintage up the edges of the dress. The background of the card is subtly stamped with Speckled Egg using a chicken wire stamp. The sentiments are stamped as well using Black Soot Distress Ink.
