This is a variation on a card my downline, Tracey, was demoing at the Papercraft Show. It’s such a cool idea. She punched a circle from a sticky note then attached it to a piece of cardstock. Next you chalk the top half of the background using Stampin’ Pastels and sponge daubers. Remove the sticky note circle to reveal a spooky moon.Finally, stamp on top to create an atmospheric silhouette effect.
Tracey made a lovely Christmas card using Night of Navy and glitter – but I didn’t have the right ink pads so improvised with this birthday card. I love it (I really should stop saying that about my own cards!) and plan to demo it at this month’s workshops.
