Spellbound Halloween Card


Isn't this card spooky? This card uses the new stamp called Spellbound from CTMH. I also used the Scary Fency punch and Bat punch from Martha Stewart. To make this card, I embossed the tree. Using Versa Mark, I stamped the tree onto White Daisy cardstock and then sprinkled on Black Empbossing Powder and heated it with a heat gun until it was dry. I then punched out a 1 3/4 inch circle and placed it at the top. With a sponge, I dabbed Sunflower and Autumn Terracotta inks all over the card. I then sponged Pansy Purple on top of that and made some areas darker than the others. I removed the punched circle and dabbed the Pansy Purple on a portion of the white spot. Then I lightly sponged black all over.To make the tree stand out, I outlined it with a white pen. I attached the fence with adhesive and put a pop dot under the bat.
