One of the favorites from the Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous Halloween stamp and stencil release was the Monster Reunion set. I stamped all the monsters on their own piece of Distress Mixed Media Heavystock with Black Soot Archival Ink. Then I made cards or tags with them as I was inspired. This lighthearted card was the result of that process.
There isn't a technique to this card. But let me talk about the background and accent papers. The background is Distress Mixed Media Heavystock and I stenciled the small Shifter Chevron with Rusty Hinge Distress Ink and Hickory Smoke Distress Ink using a Blending Brush. I wanted the chevron to run vertically kind of giving a feeling of electricity from above to go with Frankenstein's Monster.
The Perfect Plaid is a piece of DMM Heavystock colored with Crushed Olive Distress Ink and stamped with Hickory Smoke. I also stenciled a few stars around him from the Small Hocus Pocus stencil.
I finished it off with a few Ideaology Hardware Heads and some machine stitching and that was it. I keep saying that it is so nice when the stamps and stencils do all the work for you, but it's so true! This card practically makes itself!
