Bewitched Moonlight

Hello everyone and welcome to September !    I hope my fellow Canadian bloggers & visitors are enjoying the Labour Day weekend and ready for 'back to school' on Tuesday.  

I promised I would be back with new CB designs that celebrate another season...... and yes it's Halloween!  I love Autumn and Halloween is a fun part of it.  I love to see how some people go all out and decorate their homes to celebrate.  I like to have pumpkins out with our tall grasses to add a touch of Autumn to our front patio.

Chocolate Baroque has just announced two new wonderful rubber stamp sets for Halloween.    I've been working with Bewitched Moonlight which is a wonderful set to create spooky scenes for Halloween cards, tags and more.       

 

For the above card, I started with watercolour paper and sprayed Purple & Orange Dylusions Inks.  I spritzed water over top and was careful not to blend the colours as these two will turn into muddy brown together.  I blotted the ink with a paper towel roll.

When dry, I stamped the images from Bewitched Moonlight with black Stazon Ink.   I also stamped the Flourish Tree from Fantasy Woodland to the left of the mushroom and around the top edges.    Using a black Micron Pigment pen I drew a little on the bottom of the tree and added a few little mushrooms to blend the images together.    

Using a piece of cardstock with a circle cut out and placed over the witch, I carefully spritzed a little water, then blotted the ink off to create the moon.    Dylusions inks are water soluble, so it's easy to remove the ink.   I added holograph glitter to highlight the moon.

I have another design using the same stamp set:

I started again with a piece of watercolour paper and sprayed Midnight, Teal and White Linen Dylusions Inks.  I spritzed a little water over top, let the colours blend and blotted with a paper towel roll.   When dry, I used two stencils TCW Cell Theory (at the bottom)  and TCW Star Fall (at the top) with Distress Inks to create a little more pattern on the background.  Next I embossed the images with black powder.  I created a moon again using cardstock with a circle cut out and distress inks.

Here is a look at the complete Bewitched Moonlight set which is on special offer for the month of September along with it's partner set Nevermore.   Both sets are available for a multibuy price as well.   

I hope you've enjoyed these 'spooky' designs.    If you have a chance, please visit Chocolate Baroque's Design Team Blog to see what my talented teammates are posting.    Also you have a chance to win some of the new wonderful stamp sets -  all you need to do is leave a comment here at the DT Blog.
