Stampin’ Up Happy Halloween

Today’s Happy Stampers Blog Hop is a color challenge and the colors scream Halloween.

14063753_10210503218565031_380748723465627682_nI actually made two cards today.  I started off with one and even liked the way it looked, but then remembered a technique I had seen that I thought would work really well.

Let’s start with card #1:

I used Basic Black cardstock and then layered some Basic Gray over Pumpkin Pie.  On the Basic Gray I used the Balloon Celebration Cloud to stamp some black clouds and cut out a circle and used the negative to create the moon.

Next I used the Halloween Treat Stamp Set which I stamped in Archival Black on Pumpkin Pie cardstock and fussy cut out.

I used a tiny hole punch to punch a few holes in the Halloween Treat sentiment to weave through some Black Baker’s Twine.

Now on to Card #2:

It’s basically the same card, but I created different clouds.

Instead of stamping the cloud stamp directly, I stamped the cloud, but then cut it out.  I used the outline to create a stencil to create the bundle of clouds.  I used daubers to stamp above each cloud in the Archival Black.

Since I changed the clouds, I also decided to change the position of the Baker’s Twine, this time tucking it behind the sentiment.
