For this first project I used the vampire and a sentiment from the Haunt Ya’ Later stamp set. I kept all the coloring black and white to give him an old movie feel, except for the blood and his eyes, so that the red and yellow really pop out. I colored him using water color pencils.
Next I used one of the adorable animals, the bear, from the Thankful Forest Friends stamp set. I inked the bear in a light tan and then rolled the edges of the stamp in a darker brown to give him some texture. The words, twig and acorns were colored with markers directly on the rubber. The background is the wonderful new Woodland Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. This large 6″x 6″ sized embossing folder is great for larger cards and scrapbook pages or can be trimmed down for cards. I used a brown cardstock and then wiped a white ink pad over the embossing to bring out some detail.
The holiday mini has lots of ideas for gift packaging for the upcoming holidays and I was inspired to stamp up a candy box using the pumpkin from the Haunt Ya Later set, coloring it with markers and making a tag using white ink to stamp on black cardstock with the cat from the same stamp set and words from the All Boxed Up set, found in the regular Stampin’ Up catalog.
