Trick or treat


Trick or treat - smell my feet - give me something good to eat.............
Just love that saying. Today's card uses a Digital image from Cute Daisy May. She has the cutest images I have seen in a long time. I find them totally irristable and have bought about 60 sheets so far. They are really good value at 1.99 Pounds for 4 images. See http://countrycraftergooglemailcom.blogspot.com/. She had a free sheet up yesterday so be quick to grab it and try out digital stamping
There has been a lot of discussion on RSA group recently as to whether or not we should be allowed to use Digital images on swaps and I am a firm believer that we must move with the times and allow it. You get such gorgeous digital images and one of the beauties of Digital stamping is the storage aspect and the other biggie is the cost factor. I really would challenge any stamper I know, to tell me the difference on a card, between a stamped image that has been coloured in and a digital image that has been coloured in.
Materials: Black cardstock, Main girl image by Cute Daisy May, Orange bazzil cardstock, orange star pattern paper from Carol Ann Studio CD, orange color box ink pad, copic markers, trick or treat saying by MFT, clear embossing ink pad, gold embossing powder, rhinestones, gold spiders, Gold Stickles
Method: Fold black cardstock to create 15 x 15 square fold card. Go around edges of Orange cardstock with orange color box ink pad and attach to cardfront. Then attach square of black cardstock and then print out sheet of orange star paper from CD and cut to size and go around edges with orange color box ink pad and attach to cardfront. Use clear embossing ink pad to stamp words onto strip of black cardstock and emboss using gold embossing powder and attach to cardfront. Print out image from digital download - Cute Daisy May and trim to size and go around the edges with orange color box ink pad and color in using Copic markers and highlight bow and buckle on hat with Gold stickles. Attach to orange cardstock and then to cardfront as shown. Add spiders and rhinestones and you are set.
