Distress Ink Techniques, Halloween

Spooky Distressed Background feat. Lawn Fawn Spooky Village

Hello friends. It’s time for another cute Halloween card featuring Lawn Fawn dies and stamps. This one features the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop and Lawn Fawn Spooky Village Stamps dies. It’s really easy to create fun or spooky dimensional cards with these dies. I’m truly loving this backdrop dieset! Stay tuned for some Christmas/Winter cards using this dieset coming up soon.

For this card, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4 x 5-1/4″ for the background. I used Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn and Villainous Potion Distress Oxide Inks to color the background panel. I added some splatters with Black Acrylic Paint and Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi STARRY COLORS Watercolors.

Next I die cut the forest from Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock with the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop 2x, the grass from Stampin’ Up! Old Olive 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders and inked it with Stampin’ Up! Old Olive Ink.

I stamped the images from the Lawn Fawn Spooky Village Stamps onto some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers. I used YG25 & YG67 for the pumpkins; C1 & C3, and YG25 & YG67 for the stones; C1 & 0 and R20 for the ghosts; Y15 & Y17 for the house windows; V04, V25, & BV08, YG25 & YG67, C1, C3, C5 & C9, YR04 & YR06 for the houses; W3, W5, & W7 for the trees; and E21, V04 & V25, YG25 & YG67, C5 & C9, YR04 & YR09 for the trick or treaters.

I stamped the sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Spooky Village Stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink . I trimmed it down to 1/2 x 4″.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4 x 5-1/4″ and stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Spooky Village Stampset with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I also added some more images from the Spooky Village.
