EEK!
YAY! It's Whimsy Stamps' Halloween Release Day and here's a very scary shaker card with bats that are simply too cute to spook! These wonderful images are from the NEW "Halloween Night" Clear Stamp Set and coordinating "Halloween Night" Die Set.
I created the background panel by mixing Brushos Color Crystals, pearlized paint and Distress Oxide Inks together; it ended up looking like aged metal! This panel was cut to 5" x 7" and attached to an A7 card base. The images were stamped, watercolored and die cut/fussy cut. I added one extra die cut to the back of each to provide some extra stability.
Using the "Drippy Frame" Die, I die cut three frames from heavy-weight black cardstock, glued them together and embossed the top with black powder to give them some shiny texture! It really did look like black goo dripping down! YAY! An acetate window was cut to size and attached to the back of the frame with Scor-Tape and double-thick black craft foam was added to the back of the acetate under the frame to create the shaker window. I piled up all the shaker bits into the center of the card front, peeled off the release paper from the window and pressed it into place.
