What’s Up? Wednesday…

Posted by Jen | MFT, cards | Wednesday, October 29, 2008

Hooray…Halloween is just a couple days away and I am in full swing creating all things black and orange. I’ve managed to squeeze in a few holiday projects, too. However, for today I am sticking with Halloween stuff. Since today is What’s Up? Wednesday I chose to use some images from the Totally Witchin’ set from My Favorite Things. I stamped the cauldron in VersaMark on PTI Vintage Cream cardstock and then embossed with Stampendous Marcasite embossing powder. This EP is SO COOL! It’s almost like a mixture of black, silver and glitter embossing powder. It makes the cauldron look very realistic. The fun little monster DP is from DCWV…very cute!

Here’s a detail shot of the embossed cauldron. I used baubles to add more texture and then outlined the image with Copic BV31 to give it a little more “pop.”

Be sure to check out the MFT Forum on SCS for new What’s Up Wednesday challenges. There will also be a chat tonight, see ya there!

    Wow I love, love, love this card. Your attention to detail is amazing.
    With Halloween just two days away I know I am so going to miss all these great Halloween cards. Oh well they were fun while they lasted. We must move on to the Holiday cards now. Bring on the penguins and snowmen..lol. Have a great day. TFS.
