This month the MFT Design Team is preparing for a frightfully sweet Halloween season — from party invitations and spooky greetings to home decor and delightfully wicked favors. First, I created a spooky message using background stamps and lots of Die-namics.
I used the largest Traditional Tag die to trace a tri-fold of Black Licorice card stock. I stamped and layered Grid, Diagonal Stripes and Cheesecloth backgrounds, cut with the largest Pierced Traditional Tag die.
“BOO” was cut using High-Rise Alphabet Uppercase, stamped with Burlap background and raised on foam tape. On the “B” panel, I used Paper Bag Peek-a-Boos and Looped Border.
On the first “O” panel, I used Spooky Scene and a Moroccan Tile Trio border.
And on the last panel, I used the tree and fence from Spooky Scene and created a border along the bottom made from negative pieces from the fence and Looped Border. All shiny black dots were created using Glossy Accents. To toilet paper the tree, I cut thin strips of card stock then curled it around a small wood skewer before “hanging.”
Next, I did a bit of “recycling,” using cans that once held coffee, pineapple chunks and tomato sauce.
My favorite was probably the easiest/quickest of the three. I stamped a Textile Background onto Orange Fizz card stock using Black Licorice ink, added eye balls cut from Circle STAX 1 and “hair” using Dripping Goo Edge.
On the second can, I stamped Darling Dots onto Primitive White card stock and used the sentiment from Trick or Treat (Miss Tiina).
Lastly, a small tomato sauce can was covered with stripes from Plaid Background Builder and a sentiment from Trick or Sweet, die-cut using Layered Treat Tag Die-namics.
I actually created a third project but will share that in a few days. (I don’t want to bore you.) 😉
Thanks for stopping by!
