There's about to be a brand new release from Rachelle Anne Miller Art and I'm delighted to be giving you a sneak peek of a new digital stamp called Halloween Cats that forms part of the new release. You can buy this and the other new stamps on September 16th.
I received the digital image in an email and sent it to print on my home printer after putting Copic friendly cardstock in the paper tray. I used a faux stitched rectangular die to size down the printed cardstock to just under A2.
The sweet image was coloured with Copic markers. Here is my colour palette:-
Pumpkins - YR04, Y38, YR31, Y21, YG91, YG93
Stalks, Leaves and Ground - YG91 YG93, YG95
Large Cat - W1, W2, W3, W4, W5, W7
Small Cat - W00, W0, W1
Cheeks - R00, R20, R21
Sky - BG90, BG70, BG0000
A few points were highlighted with a white gel pen and then I popped the coloured panel in my Misti and stamped the sentiment. I backed this panel with white craft foam to elevate it over a full sized A2 panel of charcoal coloured cardstock which nicely worked with the dark W Copic colours, making everything popped. This panel was then attached to my sturdy cardstock card base.
To complete the card I glued down 3 wooden star embellishments from my stash and with that the card was complete.
