Halloween Shaker Card + Video

Hi crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears here. I’m back with a Halloween shaker card featuring the Spider Web die set and some other fun Halloween sets from Pretty Pink Posh.

Watch the video above  I  Watch the video in HD on YouTube

For the card background, I cut a piece of white cardstock to 4″ x 5 1/4″. I inked the cardstock with Distress Oxide inks. I used Twisted Citron in the center, followed by Mowed Lawn, and then Rustic Wilderness along the outside edges. Next, I mixed some black acrylic paint with water to thin it out and then flicked some of the paint onto the background. I set this aside to dry.

Next, I stamped the ghosts from the Ghost Friends stamp set and colored them with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens. The colors I used are as follows:

Ghosts – Light Gray/Blender (body), Sugar Almond Pink (cheeks)
Hat – Deep Violet, Violet, English Lavender 
Hat Stripe – Orange, Blender
Pumpkin – Orange, Blender
Broom – Beige, Gray, Blender
Lollypop – Sugar Almond Pink, Peach Pink
Bow – Violet, English Lavender
Bow – Peach Pink, Blender

I die cut the spider web with double-sided adhesive foam. I placed the spider web foam piece in the center of the card layer making sure to add two ghosts slightly behind the spider web foam piece before fully adhering it to the card.

I also die cut the Spider Web Die with black cardstock and glued it to a piece of acetate. I cut the acetate along the outside edges of the black spider web until all of the excess acetate was removed from the spider web. I set this piece aside and then filled the spider web foam piece with the Spooky Night Clay Confetti and the Monster Mash Clay Confetti. Once the spider web was filled with confetti, I glued the black spider web acetate piece to the top of the spider web foam piece to enclose all of the shaker pieces. Be sure to watch my video to see this process in action.

I added die cut the spider from the die that comes with the spider web die and colored it with Violet and English Lavender Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens. I added the spider to the center of the web.

I added the sentiment “boo” from the Boo Script die set and then added this card layer to a piece of black cardstock that measures 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″. I added the final layer to an A2 size card base.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a bootiful day!
