Beware
Hello crafters! I selected a piece of Yupo card to use for the background. I added Cobalt, Wild Plum, Red Pepper and Sunshine Yellow alcohol inks to a felt covered dauber and added it to the Yupo in a circular manner. Next I cut the Boo To You Frame twice out of black card. I cut the sides off of both of them , then reconnected them to make a larger frame. I cut the Zombie Party out of milk card and used alcohol pens to colour them. I shadowed them in black by offsetting a black die cut of them. I added them to the middle of the frame with mounting foam. I inked the sign with distress inks and added it next to them. I cut the words" Beware" and "Danger" from the Grim Reaper die set out of both white and black card. I shadowed both of them with the white die cuts and glued them in opposite corners, The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size.
A cute card. I love the vibrancy of the background. I’m ashamed to say I purchased lots of alchol ink ages ago and haven’t used them yet! Maybe this is the prompt I need!
