Eat, Drink & Be Scary
Hello there my crafty friends! As Halloween is closing in, I guess I need to get the rest of my Halloween cards up on the blog (only a few more to go!). I started today's card by covering a piece of black card with a sticky adhesive sheet. I peeled the backing paper off and sprinkled Pink Sunset Gilding Flakes on to it. I used a piece of Rubit Scrubit pad to move the flakes all over the card, then to refine and remove the excess flakes. Next I cut the Skeleton Frame out of black gloss card. I glued a large white moon, cut from a circle die, into the upper right corner, then I glued the Skeleton Frame down. I cut the Eat, Drink & Be Scary sentiment cut in white and shadowed it in black, then glued it to the inside of the frame. Using the Double Stitched Rectangles, I cut a white frame to go around the scene, which I added with mounting foam. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size.
