A Halloween Hello - MFT

Hi Crafty Friends,

I am really enjoying making box cards and I'm trying my best to find the time to play along with MFT Outside the Box Challenge each month.  I'm sure I said this last month but using the MFT Outside the Box dies just make it so easy.  The current theme is Halloween. Now, I don't usually made Halloween cards and I actually own only one Halloween stamp set and that is the fun Birdie Brown stamp set from MFT called Witch Way is the Candy.  I own the original stamp set and bought it when it came up on retirement sale ages ago....this may be the first time I have ever used it!! The only difference I believe between the original and the re-released is the font on the sentiments. 

Supplies: 

MFT Stamps - Witch Way is the Candy?

MFT Die-namics - Outside the Box

Stampendous Embossing Powder - White 

Ink on 3 - Liquid Pixie Dust

Zig Wink of Stella Brush - Clear

Ranger Glossy Accents

I stamped all the images in memento black ink and coloured with my copics. They were cut out with my scan and cut as I don't own the dies for this set. I added some glossy accents to the eyes of the frog.  I made the base of the box card with a dark blue/navy cardstock which is from MFT and I think is called After Midnight.  The inner back panel was cut from Bristol smooth cardstock and I ink blended a night sky with distress oxide inks.  I splattered the sky with some black soot oxide ink and also splattered with some liquid pixie dust for some sparkle.  As well as adhering a moon to the back panel I also adhered some silver confetti stars. I added some clear wink of stella to the moon.

The grass was die cut using the outside the box grass dies and some dark green cardstock. I adhered all the images, except the bat, to the grass with liquid glue.  The bat was suspended in the air with a thin strip of acetate. The sentiment panel was also ink blended and then heated embossed in white ink.

I would also like to play along with the following challenges:

• Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge - #414 Any Occasion
• Time Out Challenge - Brave
  

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy the rest of your day.
