A Halloween Scene

It's Tuesday which means that you've got Kathi here to share a project with you. This week is an "Anything Goes" week so I'm getting into the Halloween spirit with a slimline card created with fabulous new stamps by AALL and Create. I've used Janet Klein's Weird Science Clear Stamp Set 950 and the witch from her Bewitchingly Clear Set 950. The background features the fantastic Haunted House from the House of Faces Clear Stamp Set 1053 by Autour de Mwa.

Here it is!

The haunted house from the House of Faces Clear Stamp Set 1053 was positioned towards the top of the image panel, then stamped with Copic friendly ink twice -- once onto an image panel and once onto repositionable sticker paper. The sticker paper was fussy-cut and placed atop its counterpart as a mask.

A circle from the Circle Masks and Stencil Set was positioned over the top part of the house. A piece of torn cardstock was placed horizontally across the image panel. Blue Lagoon and Dark Denim Elements Inks was brushed over the Circle Mask and the top of the torn cardstock.

The torn cardstock was moved downwards and Evergreen Prism Ink was brushed over the top of the torn cardstock. The cardstock was moved downwards and Evergreen Prism Ink was brushed overtop again. This was repeated until the grassy portion of the image panel was mostly inked. Rainforest Green, a lighter green, was brushed over the darker green to add depth.

The images from the Weird Science Clear Stamp Set 950 and the witch from the Bewitchingly Clear Set 950 were stamped with Copic-friendly ink onto white cardstock, fussy-cut, colored with Copic markers, then edged with a black multiliner. White gel pen was used to add catchlights to the characters' eyes.

The mask over the house was lifted and the house was colored with Copic markers. 

The black cat from the House of Faces Clear Stamp Set 1053 was stamped twice with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink

A green chalk pencil was used to add a shadow under the cats and at the base of the image panel. 

The background panel was trimmed to 3.25" x 8.25" and edged with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink

The characters were adhered to the base of the background panel as shown. A Gelly Roll Bold Line Stardust Clear Glittering Ink Pen was used to add bubbles around the moon and in and around the beaker.
