Monday greetings to you! Sending well wishes to all!
I've another Halloween card to share. I used a pre-colored image -- I did no coloring on this one.
SUPPLIES USED:
The Paper Shelter digi set Halloween Ghost image and backing paper
Color Mates black card base and card stock for dies
KI Memories grape card stock
Springhill Digital white card stock
Pink By Design and Inkadinkado sentiments
Purple Passion Versafine Clair ink
Clear embossing powder
Art Impressions Cats mini-dies
Quickutz Bats die
Lawn Fawn Everyday Sentiment Banner dies
Crafters Companion Gemini Square Torn Edge nesting dies
Gina Marie tiny purple rhinestones
Black chalk ink for edge distressing
Karen Foster ghost scrapbook paper (inside)
American Crafts Spooky Boo designer paper (on back)
I used this Splitcoaststampers sketch for my layout design, but resized it in PSE to a 6X6 square.
The challenge this week at The Paper Shelter is to alter your image in some way, so I chose to do a faux or cheater's version of the Tripe Time Stamping Technique. I printed out the focal image at 4x4" and then later decided to use the backing paper in the set as the background for the card front, so that was printed out at 6x6" and trimmed. I still think it all lined back up pretty darn well! I die cut both digis with torn-edge square dies and inked the edges black. This spooky ghost has her haunting posse of bats and black cats ready to go!
Inside, I matted both sides with some very old Karen Foster scrapbooking ghost paper and then used Purple Passion Versafine Clair ink to stamp Pink By Design and Inkadinkado sentiments.
On back, a sheet of designer paper from American Crafts Spooky Boo collection, a scrap of the purple from front and a colored stamped and punched siggie.
The Close-up. You can see the tiny purple rhinestones giving off a sparkle, but I was never able to get a shot of them with the heat-embossed sentiment's shine. 😒
And a final look. Thanks for visiting and I hope your week goes well, XOX
MY CHALLENGE PLAYLIST:

Fantastic job lining up that background paper! I love how your card turned out.
That’s a very cool image and I love the darker background. I haven’t figured out how to resize digital images properly… yet another skill to master!
