Boo to You

Hello.

Today I'm sharing a cute, and simple Halloween card, using the animal ABCs from Clearly Besotted. I resisted buying this set at first, because it has no dies, but fussy cutting does get easier the more you practice and it's turned out to be a really versatile set.

This was a quick and easy card to put together. I fussy cut my BOO letters and coloured them with Copics, then attached them with foam tape to a distress ink background. Then I added the black and orange layers for a little more interest.

Baby's First Boo

Happy Halloween everyone.
This year it's our grandson's first, so it's extra special for us, and we've already seen him in his little, dracula outfit. Too cute!

I think I threw everything at this card - it's definitely not my usual more CAS style, but I just went with the flow and had fun. I started by stamping and heat embossing 'Bailey's First' - I tried this using my misti for the words, but the gap between the letters is too much, so I had to revert to stamping the letters individually. If you're quick the versamark stays wet enough for the embossing powder to stick.

With the embossing done I inked the background up with some stencils and distress ink. Then I stamped and coloured the BOO, fussy cut it, and popped it up on foam tape.
