It's all about the Boo's...

Did you see my earlier post post about the alcohol blending technique? I shared a fun way to use three different colors to create a fun background. For this option using the Stampin’ Blends and Isopropyl Alcohol I am just using one color to help create a fun focal point.

To create this look you will need a Basic Black Stampin’ Blend marker (or one singular color of your choice) plus vellum (which is the key paper for this technique).

I started by coloring a section about 2 - 2 1/2 inches wide on the bottom right corner of the vellum with my Basic Black Stampin’ Blend. I then used an old Aqua Painter with some rubbing alcohol to drop little dots on top of where I colored. It ends up creating a really cool unique.

I used the Seasonal Swirls Dies to cut out a sparkly star wreath to layer over top of my Basic Black alcohol area. I cut out “BOO” from Paper Pumpkin card stock using the Playful Alphabet Dies. The letters are cut out a second time using the Foam Adhesive Sheets. It is such an easy way to pop the whole letter up on your project. The Granny Apple Green pumpkin is also from the Seasonal Swirls Dies. I added a few extra stars to my project using the Cute Stars Adhesive Backed Sequins!

Once I had this vellum panel complete I layered it over top of some DSP from the Cute Halloween collection. I love how the vellum softens the DSP and how spooktacular the alcohol technique looks on top of the DSP too. The base of the card is Basic Black.

I hope this card also inspires you to play around with this alcohol Stampin’ Blends technique. Its so fun and you can create some really terrific backgrounds that are all unique!
