31 Days of Halloween Day 30

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

Greetings and salutations! Kathi here to share a card created for Day 30 of the 31 Days of Halloween Challenge!

Here's my card created with the Day of the Dead Angel Rubber Stamp by Lost Coast Designs.

The Day of the Dead Angel Rubber Stamp comes in two sizes. I've used the larger of the two for my card. The Angel was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, fussy-cut, colored with Copic markers, then edged with a black multi-liner.  I should note that I Intentionally cut off her halo and the fringe at the bottom of her skirt when fussy-cutting the Angel. 

A white gel pen was used to add highlights to the pupils of her eyes. A black glitter marker was used to add sparkly details to the fine black lines on her wings, skirt, and the buttons of her bodice. The completed Day of the Dead Angel was set aside while I created a suitable background for her.

A panel of Mixed Media cardstock was sprayed with water. Black and Grey Brusho Powders were sprinkled over the wet paper and allowed the powders to activate The background panel was misted with more water to further spread the Brusho powders. A paper towel roll was rolled over the the panel to sop up the excess water. The panel was heat set.

The Remember This Story 6x6 Stencil was placed over the ink-stained background, Nocturne VersaFine Ink was brushed over the stencil onto the background panel, then heat set. 

Low-tack tape was placed over most of the rays of the Super Hero Rays 6x6 Stencil, the stencil was positioned near the top of the background panel, and Golden Glitz Delicata Ink was sponged over the stencils onto the background panel. 

The image panel was trimmed to 5" x 5".  Black and white floral washi tape was adhered to the bottom of the panel then the Delicata and VersaFine Clair Inks were used to edge it.

A piece of white cardstock was trimmed to 5.25" square, Golden Glitz Delicata Ink was sponged around the panel's outer .25" perimeter, then heat set. This panel was used to mat the background panel. 

 The Day of the Dead Angel was adhered to the background panel so that her head would be within the gold stenciled rays and the bottom of her skirt would be on the washi tape.

The card front was adhered to a black 5.5" square card.

I sure hope that you've played along with our 31 Days of Halloween Challenge!
