Spellbinders | Halloween Pets Bundle by Simon Hurley

 PRODUCT LINKS BELOW CONTAIN COMPENSATED AFFILIATE LINKS AT NO COST 
 
Happy Friday! Today Simon Hurley has a small Halloween Stamp & Die release that is NOW available over at Spellbinders!  There are four spooky cute sets to choose from. You can find the full collection HERE or the direct links below.
 
My card features the NEW Halloween Pets Stamp & Die Bundle by Simon Hurley (BD-1118). I started off creating the background panel with a piece of blue card stock (Blue Denim) and ink blended around the edges with Blue Denim, In the Navy and Black Onyx ink before adding splatters with Raven Splatters (SCSl-003). Next I stamped the two doggies onto white card stock with alchol friendly ink before coloring with Copic Markers (full list of markers used listed below). The sentiment is from the set and I stamped with VersaMark ink and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder. For finishing touches I created a moon using the Everlasting Circles (S4-1280), the bats are from Drac (S6-272) and Glaze N Glue (SCS-143) on their noses and pumpkin treat holder.
