Market Street Stamps Block Party

It's time for Market Street Stamps' block party and I'm really excited to share my card with you.  I realize it's out of season, so I'll just let you think that I'm a really organized person who thinks ahead....way ahead!  The truth is that I do have several sets of Market Street Stamps sets, but several of them are background sets and several are Halloween sets.  The ghost just screamed out at me as I was looking at all of my Market Street Stamps.  I'm dreaming of a huge order someday in the near future.  Don't worry - I have my list going!

Here's my card for the block party:

Sweet Spooks (MSS), Fancy Flourish die (MFT), Picket Fence die (PTI)

After die-cutting the picket fences, I rubbed Kraft ink on the Woodgrain impression plate and ran it through a die-cutting machine so that the die-cut resembles a worn fence.  I like the worn look that it gives.  Then I punched out a circle from the gray cardstock, and punched punch again to create the crescent moon. I wanted to add some spooky trees to the card, so I cut two flourishes and adhered them in opposite corners to mimic bare tree branches. I love it when I can use my supplies for unexpected things!  After stamping the CUTE ghost, I cut him out and colored in the cheeks.  I ran him through a Xyron sticker maker face down, and then poured glitter on him for added sparkle.  I used pop-dots to adhere him in front of the fence.   

 

I hope you are able to play along with the Block Party this weekend.  You can get all the details and see more entries if you click HERE.
