Halloween Ghosts Shaker

Hello lovelies! Raquel here today sharing a fun and super easy to make design using the recently released Cauldron Shaker die.

I started this project by ink blending the background using Evergreen Bough, Salvaged Patina and Black Shoot Distress Oxide Inks. First, I applied Salvaged Patina with a stronger pressure on the edges blending softly towards the center of my A2 panel.

I repeat the same process with Evergreen bough trying to leave the center of the panel lighter, so it had a visible highlight. Finally, I slightly applied some Black Shoot Distress Oxide Ink and sprayed the whole background with a fine mist of water, Brushed Pewter and some iridescent white watercolor.

I’m in love with the new Ghost Friends Stamp Set so I wanted to use these adorable ghosts. I colored three of these cuties with Copic Markers using the following:

BV000 and BV00 for the ghosts
W7, W6, W5, YR04 and Y17 for the Hats
V6 and V12 for the bats
YR04, Y17, E55 and E33 for the broom.

Next up I die cut four Cauldron Shaker pieces. I applied a piece of acetate under the first one and then glued the rest for some dimension. I filled this shaker with the Halloween Party Clay Confetti and glued it to the bottom part of the panel.

My last step was to add the sentiment. I decided to use the Boo to You phrase from the same Ghost Friends Stamp Set. I white heat embossed it on black cardstock and added to the center of this fun scene. I arranged the ghost and bats around the sentiment and my card was done!

I hope this card inspires you to create with these fun, unique and gorgeous products!

Hugs! Raquel
