Spooky Night Flight!

 


Boo to you, crafty friends! Today I’m sharing a frightfully fun little card featuring the Witchy Boo Crew by Kat Scrappiness. This card is packed with Halloween charm—from the beautifully inked night sky to the spooky trees setting the perfect scene. And just look at these adorable Halloween cuties! They’re all dressed up and ready for tricks, treats, and a whole lot of witchy-cute fun.

For the spooky sky background, I ink blended Wilted Violet, Prize Ribbon, Peacock Feathers and Twisted Citron Distress Ink. 

I used the new All Fenced In Craft Die with a piece of white wood grained cardstock.  To give it the gray color, I used Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide for the main color and then went back in with Black Soot Distress Oxide Ink to dust up the texture on the paper.  

Aren't you just loving those scary trees in the background?  I used the Trio Of Trees Craft Die to cut them out of black cardstock.

I stamped and die cut my friends using the new Witchy Boo Crew Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.  To color them in, I used Copic markers in the following colors:

  • E000, E00, E11 - skin
  • Y38, YR16, YR09 - orange
  • Y00, Y04, Y08 - yellow
  • YG00, YG01, YG05  - green
  • V04, V15, V17 - purple
  • W1, W3, W5, W7 - black

To finish up this card, I added a few little confetti bits to sparkle up the sky.

I didn't put a sentiment on the front of this card because it was busy enough and I actually left the inside blank for a unique and heartfelt message.

Thank you for stopping by today!  Happy crafting!

Have A Meowy Christmas


Oh meow, it looks like these two festive felines are ready to steal the Christmas spotlight! With their sweet little berry headbands and carols at the ready, this adorable pair is bringing plenty of whisker-filled holiday cheer.

They are part of the new Meowy Christmas stamp set by Pajama Crafter Stamps, and this design is purr-fect for a shaker pouch card. I paired it with a bit of Christmas patterned paper in the background, then added sprinkles inside for extra merry movement. With all that sparkle and shake, these kitties may be too busy playing to finish their song!

I colored these little friends with the following Copic markers:

  • YR0000, E41, E50, E31 - cream
  • Y26, YR24, YR27 - tan
  • R01, R11, R20 - inner ears
  • T1, T3, T5 - noses

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today! I hope this cheerful little card inspires you to shake things up and create a meowy magical Christmas shaker card of your own.
