Hocus Pocus with Deb & Vicki
Hocus Pocus
Hidey Ho Teaspoon Fans,
Today Teaspoon of Fun is so excited to bring to you some fun, fun fun!!!! Halloween Fun. I love Halloween…not the blood guts and gore but the fun and adorableness of the season! We have so many new sets in the shop to celebrate this cuteness! Today’s card came out amazing.
Before I show you what we have, just a reminder to make sure you check out the SALE ROOM and Blowout Sale we are adding new items all the time.
Head on over to Teaspoon of Fun for all your paper crafting needs
and share this site with your friends!
Let’s take a look at what I picked for you today…
Distress Oxide Ink Pad – Old Paper and Black Soot
Distress Oxide Re-Inker – Black Soot
NEW – Mini Ink Blending Brushes
Flower Palette or Paw Palette
Let’s start with the background. The Nevermore 6 x 6 Paper Pack is just amazing. It’s new in the shop and filled with color and drama. It can be used for Halloween but if you look at them, they can be used for other occasions. A must for your stamp room. I used one of the scene sheets and then started to build my scene. Cut it down to 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ and adhere to the card base using the EZ Grand Tape Dispenser.
I used the Hocus Pocus Die Set and Copper Mirror Paper for the sentiment. I cut two from white card stock then one from the Copper Mirror Paper. I adhered them together using the Precision Glue Press.
Let the fun begin. We’re going to start making the tombstone using the Build a Graveyard Die Set…..eeeeeek this set is so much fun. There are so many pieces you can use and different shapes. Use them alone or use them and stack the as I did here. The embellishments (if we can call them that) are so much fun and so complete – bats, sculls, fences, cats and more. Before we put them together, cut out the ones you want and stamp your images from the Grave Epitaphs Stamp Set. This is a must-have set to complete your Build a Graveyard Die Set.
Stamp what you want to add to you tombstone first using your Black Hybrid Ink and Stampwheel. Now let’s put it together. I used Black Thin Foam Squares, Black Regular Foam Squares and Black 3D Foam Strips. I have it a lot of layers and lots of depth! Use the NEW – Mini Ink Blending Brushes and your Distress Oxide Ink Pads (colors I used are above) and blend some color into the tombstone. It gives it that old aged look. Take your Flower Palette or Paw Palette and add some Black Distress Oxide Re-Inker to one of the wells. Using the Palette Knife add some Bleed Proof White Luma to another one of the wells. Add some water from your Silicone Dispenser to another well. Water down the Bleed Proof White Luma just a little bit. Pick up some of that color on your #1 Watercolor Brush and splatter the tombstone. Now take this Soft Bristled Toothbrush and pick up some of the Black Distress Oxide Re-Inker on the toothbrush and spray the tombstone. Adhere this to the card base using the Precision Glue Press.
Time to add your embellishments. I added the fence pieces first using the Precision Glue Press and then the Micro Black Foam Squares.
Add a cat here and a scull there. So much fun.
Pop and glue to make lots of texture.
To finish it off, add the bats using the Precision Glue Press and pop up their wings.
Add your card to one of our A2 White or A2 Cream Envelopes and mail it off to your dear friend.
