Eat, drink and be Scary

 I usually make cute Halloween cards, so those spooky stamps that I have in my stash don't get much ink. However, I made this to fulfill a card request for a 30 year old who is recovering from a terrible car accident and who loves eerie Halloween designs. I pulled out the Spider Web Frame embossing folder by Darice, along with stamps by Kat Scrappiness (the sentiment and layered skull), and by Fun Stampers Journey (the cauldron and octopus). The label die is by Diamond Press, and I glued five layers together to get a raised effect. The distressed patterned background is a stamp by Lost Coast Designs, and was stamped with Brilliance pearlescent ink in Moonlit White. I heat embossed the sentiment in white embossing powder and lightly rubbed Moonlit White ink over the embossing folder to emphasize the pattern. Then used a Versamark marker to emboss the spider with black embossing powder.
