Sneak Peek: Boo
Hello, Gemma here with a sneak peek to share with you all. Iโm using the new Boo set, which is so much fun for Halloween. I made two cards to show how easy it is to get very different looks with this set.
For my first card, I started with the background. I inked up two panels of white card with distress oxide inks in cracked pistachio, peacock feathers and black soot.
On one of these panels, I used the new Spider Web stencil with embossing ink, then heat embossed the pattern with a clear glitter embossing powder.
On the other panel, I stamped the larger ‘Boo’ from the set and embossed it with white embossing powder. I then used the coordinating die to cut the letters out, keeping all the pieces.
I layered the spider web panel onto my card base with foam tape, then adhered the stamped embossed letters from the other panel in the spaces. I set these back for dimension, and popped up the inside letter pieces (from the spider web panel) with foam tape.
For my second card, Iโm using the die cut spider web letters from my first card to create a very different look.
I used distress oxides for my background, this time choosing picked raspberry, wilted violet, blueprint sketch and chipped sapphire. Halloween colours are so much fun! I flicked the panel with water to add lots of detail.
I white heat embossed a sentiment from the Boo stamp set at the bottom of the card, then used foam tape to adhere the Boo die cut letters. I love the impact of these large letters across the card.
The Boo stamp set has lots of fun Halloween images. I stamped and copic coloured them, choosing mostly blue, pink and purple colours to match my background.
I used the coordinating dies to cut the images out, then placed them around my card, adhering with foam tape. I love to add the hat to one of the letters.
I hope you enjoyed these Halloween cards- there are so many fun uses for this set. Join us tomorrow for another sneak peek of the August 20th release!
