Whimsy Stamps: Eye Scream

Hello Crafty Friends! 

I’m Marie and It’s my first time ever being a guest for a special Halloween blog post at Whimsy Stamps ! I’m so honored and excited to be here to share my Halloween 🎃 Card because Spooky season Is my favorite season of all!! 

My Halloween card today features images from the Eye Scream Stamp Set. This set just spoke to my soul! It’s such a beautifully creepy and unique stampset! I haven’t seen anything like it before! 

The first step I took to making this card was to die cut an A2 size panel from Bristol Smooth Cardstock in order to do some Ink blending. 

 

After inkblending, I added a few water splatters for texture and I let it dry for a few minutes while I created a border frame from black cardstock. Using A2 sized nesting dies, I cut my border. After cutting my border, I used a white colored pencils to color in some white stripes reminiscent of Bettlejuice stripes! 

The fun part of any card I create is the coloring part! I first stamped my images in Antique Linen distress ink on Arches Watercolor Paper. I then colored them using watercolor pencils in the noline coloring style I love and adore so much. 

After Coloring my images, I fussy cut them using a small pair of detail scissors ✂️ 

When all my images had been cut, I started on my inked Background Panel by Stamping out my background in a beautiful spiderweb design using Whimsy Stamp’s  The Web Background Rubber Cling Stamp. I heat embossed my spiderweb background using black embossing powder. 

I cut out some black bats using the dies from the Build-a-graveyard Die Set as accents to my card! 

I played around with positioning my images and then glued them all down using liquid glue and score tape. For some of the Eyeball bats, I used some fun foam at the back of each to add some dimension to my card and that finishes off this super fun and Spooky Halloween Card! Thank you so much for stopping by and allowing me to share in my Cardmaking Passion! Have a wonderful day! Happy Halloween 🎃👻🕷🕸🦇
