Jack of All Trades for Halloween




I created this card for a Halloween Swap I was in. It uses the new sets "Jack of All Trades" and "Scaredy Cat" from the Idea Book & Catalog for 2011-2012. The basic card was made with Old Olive. I cut the Frightful Sight DSP at 2 1/2" x 4" and the pumpkin is stamped with Cajun Craze on Whisper White CS at 2 1/2" x 3" and sponged the edges with Cajun Craze.The face is stamped with Basic Black in. Then I adhered it onto a 2 3/4" x 3 1/4" Basic Black cardstock. I stamped the Boooooooooo with Basic Black ink on a 3 1/2" x 1" Whisper White CS and sponged the edges with Cajun Craze and adhered it to 3 3/4" x 1 1/4" Basic Black CS. The hat was stamped on Whisper White and trimmed out and putting dimensionals on the back to add to the pumpkin. I tied a bow with the Basic Black 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon and attached to his hat.
