This was my first project with the October Betterpress Society plate, 'Twinkle Tidings'. It's pretty clearly a Christmas plate, but I got it in my head that I should see if I could make it a Halloween card. I was going for 'Pretty Halloween' with my colour combo:
I used four Distress Oxide inks along with the coordinating stencils to colour the plate, then used Hickory Smoke and Black Soot to add a grungy look to the edges.
I'm using the Olive Martinis die set from Spellbinders to make a sparkly Halloween martini - cutting the glass out of black glitter cardstock, and the other bits from cardstock that coordinated with my ink colours.
And yes, I made the little olive dies into eyeballs, drawing on some pink veins with a Twintone marker. The sentiment is from the Cheers Sentiments press plate that coordinates with the Martini dies, and was popped up on 3D foam adhesive. A few black gems finished it off.
