I'm stopping by this evening to share a Halloween design I made using some of the great new products featured in the 2011 Holiday Catalog & Inspiration Guide!
I love Halloween, and I love this witch! These images are from the "Creepy Hollow" set, which has quickly become one of my all-time favorites.
To make the witch -- and how I wish this photo captured the embossed detail -- I stamped the image in VersaMark (after rubbing my Static Magic pouch all over the Orange cardstock), then topped it with the *fabulous* and super-fine a|s Onyx embossing powder and zapped it with a heat tool. It looks AMAZING... I wish you could see it better.
I mounted the Orange circle to a slightly larger Onyx Solid Shimmer circle. (I used dies from both the Nestabilities Small & Large Standard Circles sets to get that 1/8" offset). I cut a piece of the awesome Sleepy Hollow cardstock to 4.25" square size and ran some Onyx sheer organdy ribbon along the side. I chose to stamp the sentiment with VersaFine Onyx. And, as a final detail, I used the Bat Trio die with Onyx Solid Shimmer cardstock and mounted them up on the corner.
Understated, elegant, and decidedly creepy indeed!
