Halloween Magic

I created this card using Brusho and stamps from Lavinia Stamps.

Happy Halloween!!!

I can’t believe it’s the end of October already. Time goes so fast!

To begin the card background, I sprinkled Yellow, Crimson, and Sunburst Lemon Brusho over the surface of the watercolor paper. I used a Ranger Mister to spritz the water upwards, then lifted and tilted the paper so the Brusho and water ran towards the bottom of the paper. I seem to get a better result when I spritz water upwards versus down.

Once it dried, I stamped the images with Nocturne VersaFine Clair ink. To add sparkle, I used a disposable paintbrush to spread glue across the bottom of the card. I sprinkled Lavinia Stamps Eco Glitter over it, then tapped the cardstock to remove any excess glitter.

Materials Used:

  • Strathmore Watercolor Paper, Cold Press, 140 Lb.
  • Lavinia Stamps: Arwen, Esme, Prue, Mini Rune, Mini Jinx, Witch Hazel (Tracey Lavinia Dutton is the artist of the stamps.)
