It’s a zombie Halloween

10/31/2018

I love Halloween creations- unfortunately, I don’t usually get to make a lot of them because I am so busy teaching in the fall months. A couple weekends ago I was at a retreat with some friends and all I got done on the crafty front was to color some zombies. My weekend instead was filled with tons of laughter, story sharing, lemon drop martini’s, and little sleep. I wouldn’t have it any other way 😉

It’s a zombie Halloween

 

 

Tim Holtz, 2018 Zombies

I decided to use some of the zombie images to create a Halloween card. The main images are from Tim Holtz’s 2018 Zombie cling stamp set. I had fun coloring them with Copic markers and fussy cutting them out, so when I came home they were ready to be added to a card.

For the background of the card, I used the Twisted Layering Stencil, and an ink blending tool to ink a little bit of Scattered Straw Distress Oxide ink onto black cardstock.

For the sentiment, I stamped “Happy Halloween” on orange cardstock from the 2018 Mr. Bones stamp set. I also die cut “OOOHH” several times in orange and gray cardstock from the Tim Holtz, Sizzix Alphanumeric Cutout Upper Thinlits Die Set. I then glued them together to create a dimensional spooky sentiment.

I added a stitched frame in gray cardstock. To finish off the card I added some Rock Candy Dry Glitter to the tombstone and glossy accents to the zombie’s eyes.

Hope you enjoy this spooky creation! Are you doing anything fun for Halloween?

    My Halloween obsessed husband loves this card. He asked me to do something similar for our kids’ party next year.

    A big pajama party. Looks like loads of fun. Lovely scary card. Somehow that doesn’t sound right.
