Too Cute to Spook

August 21, 2023 1 Comment

 Hello everyone, Dania here again (aka Dania's Doodles) excited to be guest designing once again.  This time I got a change to play with "Halloween Ghosts" and a very cute "BOO" die. The "BOO" is just darling.  My favorite feature about this die was the shadow.  The shadow has the opennings for the "O's". Oh and how I love this design.  I can just see googly eyes inserted!  @@ 

For my first project, I created a slimline card.  I started by inkblending the background using Distress Oxide inks to create a moonlit night sky.  The little ghosts were colored in alcohol markers in a pale blue for a slight glowy shadow. To create the moon, cut and adhere a circle mask.  Then ink the background in colors of your choice, remove the mask and ink in the moon overlapping into the dark sky for an extra glow. Splatter white paint for added interest.  The small sentiments included fit perfectly in the sign carried by the one ghost.  For this card I cut the BOO shadow in vellum.  

For my second card, I designed an A2 sized card.  Wanting once again to showcase all the ghosts I used  a wonky grid background and pattern paper.  Grids like this one is a great guide to group objects.  The ghost in this case were colored in pencil with no lines.  I used the main senitment in the set, but made sure the ghost holding the sign got his sentiment. :) 

I want to thank Gerda for trusting me to showcase a couple of her darling stamp sets this month.  You can find my work on Facebook and Instagram.

AND don't forget about the monthly challenges for a chance to win.  I have won a couple of times and it has been a thrill to shop the cuteness. 

Thank you again, 

Dania
