Card Sketch 101

Darling Duckling cardstock lights up the card base and a combination of Light & Dark Lemon Lime Twist Blends paired with the Darling Duckling blend gives Miss Spider a glow.

Extreme closeup of card front showing detail of diecuts. Large black spider web over orange star-patterned paper and over web-patterned paper. A friendly acid-colored spider is in the web. Several acid yellow sparkle dots are scattered in the web. Greeting is a large black BOO with acid yellow centers in the letter openings.

Die cut the word BOO from Basic Black cardstock, then layer it on a scrap of Basic White and fussy cut closely around the edges. Fill in the letter gaps with a Dark Darling Duckling Blend alcohol marker, before applying to the card front with mini glue dots.

Full supply list can be found here in my online shop.
