Googly Ghouls: Sketch Challenge





Good evening friends!  So I'm so excited to share my first project created with projects from the new Holiday catalog (I must say I'm in LOVE!)  Apparently I must have holiday projects on my mind since I noticed that all the stamp sets in my last order were either Halloween or Christmas sets.  My card for this weeks Stamping 411 challenge is for Halloween and features the oh so cute Googly Ghouls stamp set.  One of the great things with this stamp set is they match the new adhesive googly eyes (I know I'll be using these a lot since they're so fun).  I started with a cardbase of Very Vanilla and sponged around the edges with More Mustard ink.  The next layer is Basic Gray and I ran it through the Big Shot with the new Chevron embossing folder.  The designer paper is also from the Holiday catalog and is Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP.  I matted that on Tangerine Tango an cut flag edges on both and then layered it with a piece of 1/2" striped satin ribbon (also new). 
For the main image I stamped the little witch in Basic Black and then colored her in with Stampin' Write markers before cutting it out with the Big Shot and the apothocary framelits.  I sponged around the edge with More Mustard ink and then matted it on a piece of Basic Black cardstock that was also cut out with the framelits.  Aren't her eyes cute? 
The final touch was to stamp the greeting with the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set and punched it out with the Modern Label punch.  Now check out the sketch were provided, pretty similar but I did rotate the stamped image to fit my little witch.  This card was so fun to make I can't wait to make other projects with these products and other new ones.

Enjoy and happy stamping,

Diana
