Lets start with the adorable ghost card. I started by embossing a A2 sized panel in the Simon Says Stamp Embossing Folder CUTE GHOSTS<\/a><\/strong>. I used my Gemini for this and let me tell you. It has been a labor of love trying to find the right sandwich that won’t warp the embossing folders. I finally found that what words best for me is a clear cutting plate and one sheet of 80lb cardstock. If the design isn’t quite deep enough then I send it back through with another sheet of paper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once I had the design perfect, I grabbed my trusty splat box… (a Simon Says Stamp card kit box with a paper towel in the bottom) and the Mica Sprays in Wicked Elixer<\/a><\/strong>, Fortune Teller<\/a><\/strong> and Burning Ember<\/a><\/strong>. I began spritzing until I was completely happy with the results. I left the panel to dry and boy when I returned, I GASPED. These products are 100% a must have. The start off dark and then when the dry back they are beautifully blended and shiny! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I cut the panel down to 3.75in X 5 and backed it with a black card stock<\/a><\/strong>. I kept it simple to allow that background to be on display by adding a simple sentiment from the CZ Design Stamps and Dies HALLOWEEN PEOPLE set<\/strong><\/a> and some simple confetti sequins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nUp next, I followed the same process with the first for embossing but I used the Simon Says Stamp Embossing Folder GEOMETRIC LATTICE<\/a><\/strong>. I then grabbed the other three colors from the Mica Spray packs in Decayed<\/a><\/strong>, Harvest Moon<\/strong><\/a> and Iron Gate<\/strong><\/a>. I spritzed until I was happy and walked away. When I came back, I wanted a little something extra, so I grabbed my Distress Oxide Spray in Patina<\/a><\/strong> and unscrewed the cap and flicked some extra onto the panel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I followed the same finishing steps as the previous card and viola! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nI love how the top card is shiny and everything sparkly, while the bottom card with the added patina, truly achieved a Patina type texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
