Pretty Pink Posh – August Release Blog Hop Day 3

Card tutorial 2 Minutes

Hey friends! I’m so excited to be guest designing for the Pretty Pink Posh August release! This is day 3 of the release blog hop. So after you hop and comment along today’s designers, be sure to go back and do the same for day 1 and 2 to increase your chances of winning!

Now, on to some spooky fun inspiration for you!

I paired the adorable ghostie images from Ghost Friends with the new Layered Ghosts stencils! They’re all so much fun and definitely too cute to spook! I used white pigment ink with the stencil on black cardstock and then came in with glitz glitter gel for the faces and stars. I love the little bit of sparkle.

Then I stamped and colored the sweet witchy ghost with copic markers, stamped a sentiment in the set and used the coordinating dies to cut all of that out. To create a focal point for my ghost, I ink blended a scrap of white cardstock with distress oxide ink in seedless preserves and dusty concord, then spritzed it with water and blotted it dry. I used the smaller scalloped diamond tag to cut it out and started assembling my card.

First, I trimmed the stenciled panel down to 4×5.25 inches and popped it up on a card base with foam tape. Then I added the diamond with foam squares along with the sentiment. However, to take the fun factor of this card to the next level, I added that sweet ghost with an action wobbler! Sometimes I forget I have these in my stash but I immediately thought a flying ghost needed it!

For finishing touches, I added glossy accents to the witch hat and strip of the broom too.

I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Here is a list of the products I used.

  5. I love the stenciled ghosts so much – they’re definitely going on my list! Also, what a great idea to put your main ghost on an action wobbler!

  11. I swore I was not buying any Halloween this year as there are no little people in my life right now but these little ghosts are just too cute! (I may need to borrow a kid or two) Super cute card, and I love that little bit of sparkle too!
