Halloween Layout!





Here is a cute Halloween layout we did. We used the White Daisy stamp pad, Fancy Fuzz, and did a technique called Joesph's Coat. This is seen in the top right corner (the skull) Here is how its done.

1) Color a piece of glossy paper with lighter colors. Yellow, greens and purples is what I used.
2) Stamp image with Versa Mark stamp pad
3) Clear emboss the image
4) Then take a darker colors such as black, dark brown etc. and brayer over top of it.
5) Wipe with a paper towel and you will see the beautiful color image you stamped.

Have fun trying this. I saw this on Stamp TV.
