Tim Holtz/Sizzix: Wicked Spooky
For these cards, I started by adding some adhesive sheets to some Distress White Heavystock. Then I die-cut all potion bottles from the Vault Wicked die set out of Distress White Heavystock. I colored them with Copic markers, which are alcohol-based markers. I kept the die-cut pieces inlaid into the cardstock I cut them out of, so it was easier to color the smaller pieces.
The swatches above can easily be substituted for similar colors or even a different coloring medium. If you are interested in learning more about Copic or alcohol marker coloring, be sure to check out my Copic 101 class here.
Next, I die-cut the cat from Vault Wicked die set several times out of black cardstock and stacked them together with adhesive. For the backgrounds, I created them on Distress Watercolor cardstock with Distress Watercolor Pencils and Gansai Tambi Starry Colors palette.
I then spread some Distress Grit Paste Glow along the background. If you would like to learn more about working with Distress Watercolor Pencils, be sure to check out my online classes, Distress Techniques: Distress Watercolor Pencils and Distress Techniques: Distress Watercolor Pencils part 2
For the sentiment, I die-cut “wicked” from the Vault Gothic Portraits die set out of black sparkle cardstock. I used black foam squares and strips to adhere it to the card. I then die-cut “spooky” using the letters from the Vault Coffin Box. I used the grid on the Make Art Stay-tion and Best Ever Craft Tape to line the letters up nicely and straight, and I used Distress Collage Medium to adhere it to the card.
I die-cut the stars from the Vault Wicked die-set. I added some Purple Sparkle Cardstock to an adhesive sheet and then die-cut them, making them easy to add to the cards. I added a touch of Rock Candy Distress Glitter to the labels on the potion bottles as well.
I had so much fun creating these cards, and I hope it has inspired you and maybe it has “jennabled” you a bit to go shopping! I will be back soon with even more ideas!
