Envelope to go with Witch Card


Here is the envelope I made to mail my witch cards in.  Took a parchment colored envelope and chalked a bat on the front and then chalked the edges.  Set the chalk with hairspray.  This is for Karlee's challenge on Pink Stamper to use an envelope in creation.

Witches in the Air

Today as I was happily sitting in front of my computer, I was attacked by spirits.  Look what happened before Krabby Kat came to my rescue.

Chris and Colten

I was looking for a picture and came across this one.  Just had to include it in my blog.  Colten is laying on his daddy and every time he turns his head, Colten licks his finger and sticks it in his ear.

Tin foil dry embossing

These are the cards I made using a techique inspired by Nicole at Canadian Nickel Scrap'n.  Thanks for sharing it.  Hope you like my take on it too.

The Dryer sheet techique

Here are a couple examples of the dryer sheet techinque that I made.  The first one is using regular glue stick to hold down the dryer sheet.  That part worked but the glitter wouldnt stick, so I ended up a painting it with clear acrylic glitter paint.
This one I used the Xyron adhesive machine to stick the dryer sheet to it and then used my brayer to press it down.  Then applied the glitter and brayed again.  This worked nicely but I am really messy with glitter.  The other method was easier for me.  But you  be the judge.
Here are the two so you can compare.  I like them both.  It is a techique I will be using again.  Just going to have to raid the laundry room trash for old dryer sheets.  Ha ha ha, that is recycling.
Here is a link you can go to for a nice tutorial on doing the dryer sheet techique.  Give her credit and let her know I sent you there.   http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/dryer_sheet_technique/
