I'm having so much fun with the Monster Mash set from Lawn Fawn along with some new goodies from Simon Says Stamp and Hero Arts. For Labor Day, Craft Warehouse was running a 40% off coupon and I hadn't been there in a while. I wandered around and got some inspiration and decided I needed a new background stamp when I found the Newspaper Background stamp. I immediately knew it would work as a perfect neutral for cards that need a little something extra and that was the perfect extra for the card that I had in mind today. I inked that new stamp up with some Versafine Onyx Black ink and heat embossed it with some clear embossing powder. Now, of course, I had to ink that up using some of my favorite colors of Distress Ink of Worn Lipstick, Broken China and Spiced Marmalade.
Then I broke out my new Frames Dies from Simon Says Stamp. I've played with one of them, but I wanted to use the oval frame and thought this card was perfect for that. I used the frame to cut through my inked layer and the front of the card.
I added the large and small one-eyed monsters from the set that I colored in copics with pop dots so they came through the top of the card.
I printed the sentiment on some cardstock and cut it out with a die from Mama Elephant then adhered it to the front of the card before stamping the sentiment from Lawn Fawn on the inside.

Oh boy! You have won me with this adorable card. Please don't tempt me with more fun dies from mama
Elephant and Lawn Fawn. I've been wanting the banner but have been making them myself. Again...a fun fun card I need to case even though I don't have any of the stamps or dies....haha
Oooh I love that background! The shading is fabulous. So cute that the little monsters are on the inside. Very clever :)
