Chills & Thrill

Hey there, friends!! The haunting season is upon us!! And today I have this creepy little card using papers from Authentique's Masquerade Collection that are sure to give you the chills and thrills you're craving for!

I started with a 5" x 7" card base made from black cardstock.

Then, I cut my papers down to the following sizes:

Masquerade Six (Orange Buffalo Check/Plaid)- 6-7/8" x 4-7/8"

Masquerade Two (Black Spiderwebs)- 6-3/8" x 4-3/8"

Masquerade Two (White with Black Polka-dot) 6" x 4"

I used a Stub Corner Punch Crop-a-dile on each of the corners, including the corners on the card base.

Then layered and attached the Orange Plaid and Spiderweb papers onto the card base using my Xyron Mega Runner.

I created Blood Splatters on the last remaining layer before attaching it.

I used a Splatter Stencil and Barn Door Distress ink and simply rotated the stencil to alter the direction of the splatters.

Then inked all around the edges with Black Soot Distress Ink.

With more black cardstock, I die cut out 3 each of Zombies, vampires, & Skeletons. Then stacked and adhered the die-cuts together to create make them "chipboard-like" in thickness.

I found a tattered banner that said "chills & thrills" in the sheet of Masquerade Elements and decided to ink them in Barn Door & Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide Inks.
