Hi friends!
This month’s Spellbinders Small Die Of The Month – Eek-A-Boo is obviously a Halloween one. You know those Halloween cards, party invitations etc won’t make themselves. The die set is very fun – you can make a lot of dressed up people using it.
I have three card ideas for you using this set.
SPOOKY GHOSTS SCENE
The ghost “costume” is my favorite from the kit. And it can be used as a stand-alone ghost as well.
Ghost cards are very easy to make. You just need some spooky background and the all you need is to pop ghosts onto it.
In my case I blended the Black Soot, Wilted Violet and Carved Pumpkin Distress Inks onto a white panel, sprinkled it with water using my Distress Sprayer, blotted and adhered onto a black card base.
I also die-cut a Four Seasons Tree out of black, cut off its left part and adhered onto the card.
Then I made a black frame by die-cutting a rectangle out of a black panel and popped it onto the card. I used black adhesive foam squares for this, as there were no place for white foam peeking from the sides.
After that, as was already mentioned, I popped the ghosts inside of the frame.
Next the sentiment was adhered onto the card. Lastly I added several sequins of coordinating colors.
CLEAN AND SIMPLE DEMON CARD
The next card is also a ghosty one. I turned the ghost into a cute demon by die-cutting it out of black and adding horns and tail. Google eyes added a bit craziness to it. But in this design a ghost would work too.
I make a simple moon scene by masking off a circle on a white card base and then blending the Wilted Violet Distress Ink all around. I’ve splattered it with water afterwards. First, because that’s what you ALWAYS do when work with distresses. Second, it added kind of starry look to it.
Lastly I added the sentiment and several sequins.
HALLOWEEN SHAKER
I don’t make shakers very often. It’s a bit of work to make them. But for some reason I find that with Halloween cards shakers call my name.
I went with a quite simple and basic shaker. The card base is orange, the from panel is black with a die cut circle in it. I put inside sequins from the Classic Halloween Sequins Fusion.
To create dimensional borders for the shaker filling I made by cutting strip out of a black fun foam and I was adhering them using a very strong Be Creative double-sided tape.
For a main character for this card I dressed up a monster kid in a skeleton costume.
Lastly I added a sentiment and several sequins.
