Doodlebugs – Halloween Word Art

Hi there! Today for Doodlebugs Mix-it-up Monday I’m playing with this new set from Pretty Pink Posh called Halloween Word Scenes. They are really fun spooky words and sayings with images in place of some letters. They’re adorable and a fun way to combine your sentiment and images into one.

I was really stuck on the “trick or treat” sentiment so I stamped and colored that first, then used the coordinating die to cut it out. I immediately went to the notched rectangle dies because it seemed like it would fit and I was right. It’s perfect!

After popping the sentiment up with foam squares on the black square, I switched to deciding what I wanted to do with my background. That’s when I remembered this new Concord & 9th embossing folder called Dashed Lines that I hadn’t played with yet. So I embossed a green panel and went over it with my blending brush to help those lines pop.

After gluing the embossed panel to a card base I thought it was missing something so I added a gray strip about 1″ wide behind the notched square. Then I finished things off with a scattering of Pretty Pink Posh pearls and some stardust Stickles on some of the images, plus glossy accents on the jack-o-lantern’s face.
