All Wrapped Up

Good Morning.. hope you enjoyed your weekend.  I got to sneak in some crafty time and made my first Halloween card of the season!  I am not really ready for that yet, but I couldn’t help myself. 

I saw Karen’s sketch yesterday and I wanted to work with the banners.  I’ve had these Fishtail Banner dies from MFT and haven’t used them like this before.  While looking for the perfect stamp, I came across this cute mummy from TSG, Hauntingly Delightful.  The sentiment was perfect to use on the banner.

I created the background, and then trimmed a piece of black cardstock.  I wrapped that with SU twill ribbon, and inked up the edges of the ribbon with my Copic marker to make it look ragged.  I die cut the banners with some papers from SU’s Cast a Spell.  I used my Papertrey Ink letter dies to cut out the letters for SORRY.  I “hung” them on the card with twine from the RC store. 

Then I stamped and colored the image with Copics and finished the card front.  For the sentiment, I die cut the tab, and inked up the bottom part of the sentiment stamp – since I had already used the SORRY above. 

I am off for the day to work at the kids’ school book fair, and then hit their open house tonight.  Thanks for stopping in!
