Hello there! Todays tutorial is a quick project that you can make using your Halloween stamps and the heat embossing techniques. On this, I am combined VersaFine Clair, VersaMark and Memento Inks with our traditional Embossing Powders.
Skill Level: Beginner
Time to Complete: 30 Minutes
Directions:
Step 1
Stamp a Halloween background onto your colored card stock using VersaFine Clair Nocturne.
Step 2:
Cover the inked area with Embossing Powder and melt it with a heat tool. On this step, you can use clear embossing powder or black embossing powder.
Step 3:
With an Ink Blusher or sponge apply Memento Ink Grape Jelly around the stamped background.
TIP: You can stamp your background onto white smooth cardstock and then ink all the area with your selection of Memento Ink.
Step 5:
With VersaMark Ink stamp the sentiment on the center of the card and covered it with White Embossing Powder. Melt the powder with the heat tool.
Step 6:
Ink the center or your card using Memento Tangelo Ink.
Step 7:
According with the stamps and colors of card stock that you used you can enhance some details using additional colors of Memento Ink. In my sample, I used purple card stock and three different colors of Memento Ink: Grape Jelly around the card, Tangelo for the Center and Paris Dusk for the corners.
Step 8:
To embellish the card, you can use a coordinated die cut. I am using a witch die that I cut onto Silver Metallic cardstock three times. I layered pasted all the die cut images with On Point Glue to add more dimension. And as final touch, I gave an additional color to the face on the pumpkin using Memento Dual Tip Markers.
Step 9:
Assemble your card pasting all the layers with Tear It! Tape or Crafty Foam Tape.
