October Product Release Blog Hop Day 1

October Product Release Blog Hop Day 1

It’s time for our two day Product Release Blog Hop for the October 2016 release. This release was a big one and since it was the last one of the year, I wanted to make it packed full of extra amazing products. We released five brand new stamp sets with coordinating dies, three die sets along with some fun embellishments!

Today I have the super talented Joni Andaya featuring a card with the new Halloween Friends stamps and dies!

October Product Release Blog Hop Day 1

To begin, I first distressed my card panel with Evergreen Bough and Scattered Straw by Tim Holtz Distress inks.

Then I stamped this cuties from Halloween Friends Stamp set on a white cardstock, colored it with Copic markers and die-cut them with Halloween Friends Coordinating Dies.

Next, I splattered my panel using Scattered Straw. I simply smoosh the ink pad on an acrylic block, added some water and used my watercolor brush to create some splatters.

Next, once the panel is dry, I stamped the sentiment “happy haunting” this is also from the same set. I also distressed a strip of paper and die-cut it using one of the dies from the Scallop Border Dies.

To finish it off, I added some Pewter sequins in 4mm and 6mm, along with some 3mm Sparkling Clear. At the bottom of the card I added some Diamond Stickles and also added some on the images for a little extra sparkle.

  224. On day one of this great blog hop one of the featured artists also had listed on her blog a tutorial of a beautiful henna stamp card that said on the front”You are enough”.

Thank you for your time:)
