Foolish Mortals

 
Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made using the Haunted Halloween set, and Spooky Eyes stencil, from Scrappy Boy Stamps. I've had these for a while now and just hadn't used them yet - until now. 
 
I started out by stamping the hitch-hiking ghosts onto scrap Hammermill white card stock before coloring using my Ohuhu markers.  Once the coloring was finished, I stippled black dye ink around my "hitch-hikers" before setting aside.  Taking the stencil, I stenciled Opalite Sterling Frost ink that I've had for a decade, or more, and also hadn't used.  Once the stenciling was dry, I added my ghost layer, a black border using scraps before adding my layered sayings.  The final touch was adding some Thunderstorm bling.  I'm pretty happy with it even if it's a 6x6 card.

  2. I love the stenciling and Opalites are very cool. I used to be in the Technique Junkies Newsletter group (before she sold stamps) and they did so many fab techniques with those inks. xoxo
