Pumpkin card

Happy halloween!

My last Halloween card for the season. I had the idea of making a monochrome card " with a twist". As you understand, the twist is the orange colour. I have used Tim Holtz products when I made this card. The pumpkinhead stamps, and a text stamp from one of his Halloween sets. I used the text stamp on the orange Coredinations paper layer to make some more interest. On the background I used one of his embossingfolders, the one that looks as a tree branch. Put on some Distress Oxide black soot and also some Distress Crayons. To finish the background I splattered some Distress paint in Spiced marmalade and Black soot.

I diecut the "Ornate frame 2" die in chipboard and put on some Grit paste. After that I used Distress spray stains in Spiced marmalade and Black soot. Finished it off with a touch of Crayons. 

Coloured som cheese cloth with spray stain. 

Here you can see a close-up on the frame and the background. I have also used a spider from Tim's ideaology line.

I placed a paper doll on the pumpkin head.

I used an older die to cut out 31, and I put a Clippings sticker on the cheese cloth. 

I hope you all will have a Happy halloween.

Another Halloween tag

Here comes another tag with lots of Tim Holtz products, such as Distress Oxide's, stamps, stencils, texture paste, Distress crayons, dies and Grit paste.

For the background of this tag I have used Distress Oxide in Black soot, and then stamped with a Halloween text stamp with Archival ink. I have put some Grit paste round the edges and afterwards some Distress crayons.

I used my Claw dies on the tag and put another tag behind with a skull stamp, which I have embossed with black embossingpowder.

The word "wicked" is texture paste through a stencil, then coloured with Distress Oxide and stamped with the same text stamp and Archival ink.

The Pumpkinhead is one of Tim's new stamp sets. I love them. I have coloured it with Distress Oxide's.
"31" is also texture paste, Distress Oxide and at last Picked fence Distress crayon.

The small pumpkin is the Pumpkinhead stamped on shrink plastic, coloured with alcohol pens and then shrunk. A cute little piece. ;)

I finished the tag off with a Distress stain and Distress ink coloured bow and some Clippings stickers. 

Have a nice day! 

Not long to Halloween now!

Halloween tag

I have made this Halloween tag with lots of Tim Holtz products, such as Distress Oxide's, dies, stencils, stamps and tape.

The background is made with Distress Oxide in black soot. And stamped with a TH halloween text stamp with Arcival ink. The Halloween word is made with texture paste on a TH stencil, and than coloured with Distress Oxide and also stamped with a text stamp with Arcival ink. The houses are diecut from a Distress Oxide colored piece of Mixed media heavystock. The spooky children are diecut from black cardstock and then I put on some Glossy accent. 

The spider is also made with texture paste and a stencil, then coloured with DO.

I will try this tag in a challenge over at That's crafty challenge - Get your spook on

Have a nice day,

Halloween card

Welcome to my blog!

I have made this card with lot's of Tim Holtz products. I started off and painted the stamps, "Pumpkinheads" from Stampers anonymous - Tim Holtz, with Distress ink's. I used Coredinations Kraft-cardstock on the frame and also inside for the red "drip edge". Then I stamped a piece of patterned paper from the "Dapper" stack with the cobweb stamp from my new stampset "Skulls & Cobweb". After that i put some black texture paste from Deco-Art through a stencil to get the Halloween word on the side of the "window".

For the piece in the middle I have used Mixed media heavystock as a base, used my Claw die, put on some grit paste round the edges to get that textured surface. Then put on some Distress Oxide in Black soot, Distress spray stain in Black soot and Spiced marmalade. Finished it off with Distress crayon in Rusty hinge on the grit paste. 

The spiderweb is a diecut from one of Tim's mixed media set dies, made in Mixed media heavystock with Distrss Oxide in Black soot on. 

I embossed the spider stamp with black embossingpowder. 

Inside the card I have used a skull stamp treated with collage medium crazing, after that I put on some Distress crayons in Antique linen and Walnut stain. The background is the Skull stamp from the previous used stamp set embossed in gold. 

I also decorated my project with some Idea-ology pieces.

Embossed spider.
