Hello Crafty Friends! I am excited to be back on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today to share a slimline card and a pair of shaker tags featuring the Happy Howl-o-ween set from the latest release. These adorable pups are all dressed up and ready to head out to celebrate Halloween.
I stamped the images from the Happy Howl-o-ween Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Happy Howl-o-ween Dies to diecut them out. I colored with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.
COPIC COLORS:
Dogs: E51/53/33/99, C00/1, R00/20, R22, C5
Pumpkins: Y35/38 YR04/07, C5
Hat: C3/5/7/9, Y38 YR04/07
Bones: E81/41 W3
For the background, I took a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock (8.5" x 3.5"). I created a homemade 3" mask by diecutting a piece of masking paper with a 3" circle die. INSIDE TIP: for smaller masks such as this one, I use a full-adhesive Post-It sticky note to make my masks. I applied the mask to the center of the slimline panel to create a moon. I ink blended the background with Salvaged Patina, Peacock Feathers, Prize Ribbon, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot Distress inks. Once the panel was dry, I splattered it with some Opaque White Copic ink that I slightly diluted with water.
Next, I stamped one of the sentiments from the set with Versamark Watermark ink and heat embossed with some Fine Detail White Embossing Powder onto a piece of black cardstock (8.5" x 1.25"). I used the grassy edge die from the Picket Fence Die set to trim the upper edge of the strip. I adhered the strip to the bottom edge of the panel.
I adhered the colored images before adhering the panel to a white cardbase (8.5' x 3.5").
I had a few colored images left so I decided to make some matching shaker tags for my card. i used the tag die with the window die attached from the Mini Mat & Tag 3 Die set to diecut 5 tags with the windows out of black cardstock, one solid tag (no window) out of clear acetate and one solid tag out of a patterned paper from the Polka Dot Parade Paper Pack for each tag. I stacked and adhered 4 black tags together with liquid adhesive. I added the clear acetate to the top before adhering the final layer of black tag. I added some of the colored bone images and sparkling clear sequins from my stash. I closed off the back with the layer of patterned paper tag. I repeated the same process for the second tag.
I stamped the sentiments from the same stamp set onto a 3/8" strip of white cardstock, trimmed it to the desired length and used a hole puncher to create the sentiment strip. I used some festive ribbon and twine to attach the strips to the tags. Finally, I adhered the colored images to the front of the tags.
