Another Peek...

It's another of the cards I'll be teaching in the class at Hannah's!! The
idea is to use different techniques with Glimmer Mist and actually use
the same 2 stamps for the most part (they get them in the kit!). This
card uses GM in Sugar Maple, Olive Vine and Deep Plum....and Tim
Holtz Distress Ink in Rusty Hinge, Mustard Seed, and Black Soot (the
pumpkin patch tag).

Those little Jack o' lanterns look like they are lit up, don't they? Super
easy....I used a masking technique with the spray mist (stamped and
cut out a row of the pumpkins to use as the mask).....sprayed on the
GM...it left a white space of the little row of pumpkins. After it was
dry, I used the Mustard Seed ink and swirled it in the white space...
then stamped the pumpkins in Rusty Hinge (stamped alternating
with a full inked stamp, and then re-stamping once off the same
stamp for a lighter look). A touch of raffia and twine finish things off.

Hope you get some crafting playtime today.....I've been cleaning and
doing laundry all day....so I think I've earned some!

Make sure to come back Monday for a special announcement!!
