The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic Black card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and taped it to the inside.
On the front I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of DSP and taped it to the front. On top of that is a 4-1/2" x 3-1/4" piece of DSP and that was taped to the front of the card with equal spacing all around, as much as you eye thinks it looks good.
I cut three strips of DSP that measure 4" x 3/4" each. The center one was supposed to be 1" x 4" but I didn't have enough scraps left so I used what I had. I taped them on the front. I taped the ends ones first and then the center one.
The tree was a cutout and was fussy cut and glued in place. I glued it across the bottom and up the main part of the trunk plus up the three other branches off the trunk. I left the thinner branches to be free.
The character and candy corn were from the cutouts. I set them in place using Dimensionals.
The circle is was made from a piece of Basic White card stock and the second smallest circle in the "Stylish Shapes" die set. Using my Blending Brush I scrubbed on some Pumpkin Pie ink on the edges and then without reinking the brush I lightly scrubbed on the rest of the circle. I set that piece in place using tape.
The bat was a die cut from the "Spooky Halloween" bundle and was cut using the die in that bundle. I set it in place using a small Dimensional.
I took my Wink of Stella pen and colored over the bat, the candy corn, the crown and the character's clothing. And the card was done.
This was a very fun and quick card to make. I'm excited to be almost done with that package of DSP. It will be a first for me. I don't ever recall using up a package of DSP in all the years I've been stamping.
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween card,
Wanda
