Halloween MemoryDex Page

It's Tuesday which means that you've got Kathi here. It's an "Anything Goes" week, but before I get to my project, I wanted to remind you that you have less than 24 hours to take advantage of Topflight Stamps' World Cardmaking Day Sale! Buy some holiday gifts or treat yourself! 


With that reminder done, it's time to move onto this week's project!

You might have noticed that I'm on a Halloween crafting kick, but imho it's the most wonderful time of the year! It's exciting to see all the Halloween decorations going up in my neighborhood. 

Therefore, I couldn't resist making a page for my Halloween MemoryDex Mini-book that I started last year. This MemoryDex page was created with AALL and Create's  Mostly Harmless Clear Stamp Set 1294 and the Boosentials Clear Stamps Set 1203 — both by Janet Klein for AALL and Create. I also used the Galactic Edges Die Set 68, which is one of the fabulous MemoryDex Die Sets by AALL and Create.

Here's my MemoryDex Page!


Cut a 5" square from Bristol Paper. Use the smaller die from the Galactic Edges Die Set 68 by AALL and Create to cut the square, then use the deckled edge-looking die to cut the remaining bit of paper. Keep both sides of the deckled edge paper to use later.

Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to stamp the girl from the Mostly Harmless Clear Stamp Set 1294 by Janet Klein for AALL and Create about .75" from the bottom of the MemoryDex die-cut. Heat set the image. Stamp her again onto a piece of repositionable sticker paper. Fussy-cut the sticker paper version and place it atop its counterpart on the die-cut as a mask. 

Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to stamp the mummy boy from the Mostly Harmless Clear Stamp Set 1294  to the left of the masked girl. Heat set the image. Stamp him again onto repositionable sticker paper. Fussy-cut the the sticker paper version of mummy boy and place it atop its counterpart on the die-cut as a mask. 

Place one side of the deckle-edged die-cut horizontally across the MemoryDex image panel die-cut so that the deckled edge is slightly above the character's feet and covering the top part of the die-cut.

 Brush Pine Elements Premium Dye Inks by Lavinia Stamps over the deckled edge onto the bottom of the image panel die-cut. Use a smaller brush to apply Violet Chalk Elements Premium Dye Ink under the character's feet to ground them and create a slight shadow. Remove the deckled scrap. 

Line up the other side of the deckled edge paper so that it's covering the bottom green-inked part of the image panel, Brush Dark Denim  Elements Premium Dye Ink over the top of the deckled edge and the masked images onto the image panel die-cut. Brush Blue Lagoon Elements Premium Dye Ink over the masked images onto the image panel die-cut, blending as you go.

When your background is complete, lift the masks. Color the images with Copic markers. Use a N6 marker to expand mummy boy's pupil. Use a white gel pen to add a highlight to the pupil. Use a silver metallic gel pen to color the shaft of the pin. Apply clear gloss glaze to the red pin head and the buttons on the girl's dress and her shoes.


Use the large die and one of the edge dies from the Galactic Edges Die Set 68 to cut black textured cardstock to create the base of the MemoryDex page.

Adhere the image panel to the black memory dex page. Adhere the edge die to adorn the right side of the memory dex page.
