Stampin’ Up! Spooktacular Everything Festive Halloween

Hey, y’all!  How goes the week?  Did you have yesterday off?  Indigenous Peoples Day nee Columbus Day – sort of an odd holiday – in that it’s hard to say who IS working (the trash collection) and who is NOT (the Post Office).  Kind of a crap shoot!  I hope your dice came up with a DAY OFF!

I’ve added a little blurb down below about a new stamp set that’s available right now for customers – it’s a New Year Celebration set – with cool Japanese images and sentiments.  Do be sure to take a peek before you get gone today, okay?

Since there’s only a couple more weeks until Halloween – I’ve done another quick Halloween card for you!  I pulled out the Everything Festive stamp set and combined it with the Spooktacular Bash bundle and Monster Bash DSP.  Take a look-see:

The layout for this one is from the FUSION challenge this week – obviously I only used the sketch side!

And the color scheme is from the FabFriday challenge (and it WAS a challenge for me!!)…

I started with some Monster Bash DSP and matted it on Melon Mambo for the card front.

Then I cut Count Dracula from one of the DSP designs with an Ornate Frames Die.  I also cut a Melon Mambo “mat” with another of the dies in the set.

I colored the frame around Drac with my Pumpkin Pie and Melon Mambo Stampin’ Write Markers.

I made the sentiment, using my Stamparatus, inking the big Everything Festive sentiment and stamping it on Whisper White.  I inked the image with my Pumpkin Pie ink pad – then wiped the ink off the web and the bats.  With the words stamped, I used my Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to ink the web and bats, then stamped them.

I positioned the die cut Count D over the stamped sentiment, lining up the spider and web – and stamped it again.  That gave me a spider getting ready to land on his shoulder!

I layered up the images next.  First – I adhered a large Pumpkin Pie scalloped circle to the card front with Liquid Glue.  Then I added the Melon Mambo frame with Liquid Glue.  Finally – I added the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals – and carefully lined Count Dracula up (making sure the web was all where it was supposed to be) and stuck it on with Liquid Glue – and a Dimensional.

I added a Melon Mambo gem from the Noble Peacock Rhinestones and the card front was done!

On the inside, I stamped a sentiment from Spooktacular Bash in Pumpkin Pie on a Whisper White panel.  Then I inked the bats on the Everything Festive sentiment with my Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker and added them.

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Melon Mambo mat and into my Basic Black card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got more Everything Festive bats on the front…

…and more of the Monster Bash DSP on the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  I love the Everything Festive stamp set – it gives us options for so many occasions!

And when paired with the uber-fun Spooktacular Bash bundle and Monster Bash DSP – it’s pretty perfect for Halloween!  I hope you like!
