As you might know, I love Kraft, but also spooky stuff and Halloween is the holiday for making something spooky. We are very early with our Halloween challenge, but why not, right?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.smouwen.nl\/blog\/include\/images\/blog_images\/%23SSSDT\/2014\/IMG_4055.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"337\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-41857\/cms126-wallpaper-wood-wall\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Wallpaper<\/a> stamp I find very Halloween-ish. With such a large background stamp, I like to use the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-10291\/Fiskars-STAMPING-PRESS-Stamp\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Stamping Press<\/a> and especially since the stamp was not covering the entire piece of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-58712\/kraft-classic-80-lb\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Kraft Cardstock<\/a>. And it&#8217;s also very handy with stamping exactly were I like. The edges are inked with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-9132\/tim-holtz-distress-ink\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Walnut Stain Distress Ink<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.smouwen.nl\/blog\/include\/images\/blog_images\/%23SSSDT\/2014\/IMG_4044.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-41857\/cms126-wallpaper-wood-wall\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">wallpaper<\/a> background was a bit too busy for me and I had to come up with something to tone it done or cover it up. While searching my Kraft stash, I found some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-37508\/jbh126630-kool-kraft-Jillibean\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Corrugated Cardstock<\/a>. Perfect to make a frame. I made the frame 1\/2 inch wide with my exacto knife.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.smouwen.nl\/blog\/include\/images\/blog_images\/%23SSSDT\/2014\/IMG_4045.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My favorite Halloween stamps are the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-46733\/cms140-mini--halloween\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Mini&#8217;s<\/a> and I have stamped with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=77872&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">Jet Black Archival Ink<\/a> the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-46733\/cms140-mini--halloween\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Trick-or-Treaters<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-46733\/cms140-mini--halloween\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Text<\/a>. I inked the edges with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-9132\/tim-holtz-distress-ink\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Walnut Stain Distress Ink<\/a> the same as for the corrugated cardboard and the wallpaper background. The gold splatters are splashes I made with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-49749\/00793-BRONZER-BRONZE-METALLIC\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Color Shine Bronzer<\/a>. The effect of those drops are really amazing, gold sparkly with a dark edge.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.smouwen.nl\/blog\/include\/images\/blog_images\/%23SSSDT\/2014\/IMG_4046.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" \/>|<\/p>\n<p>The frame needed a banner and in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=124677&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">Masquerade Party<\/a> stamp set I found the perfect stamp. I stamped it on a piece of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-50372\/BLACK-prismatics-paper-pack\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Black Bazzil Cardstock<\/a> with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-10213\/VC250-Versamark-Watermark-Rubber\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Versamark Ink<\/a>. Then covered it with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-25173\/ranger-ink-industries-embossing\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Silver Embossing Powder<\/a> and heated with the heating tool. After it had cooled, I fussy cut it out.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.smouwen.nl\/blog\/include\/images\/blog_images\/%23SSSDT\/2014\/IMG_4047.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" \/><\/p>\n<p>How cool is this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=303789&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">Haunted Webs<\/a> die? It&#8217;s a bit larger than the background, and this way I can determine where I want it to be before I adhere it down. Love these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=125379\" target=\"_blank\">Tissue Tapes<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.smouwen.nl\/blog\/include\/images\/blog_images\/%23SSSDT\/2014\/IMG_4048.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"803\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It is difficult to glue this web because it&#8217;s very intricate, but with a dot of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-18725\/Aleene%27s-ORIGINAL-TACKY-GLUE\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Tacky Glue<\/a> on my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=44653&amp;c=940\" target=\"_blank\">Craft Sheet<\/a>, I applied the glue with a toothpick on the back of it. When I glued it in the right place, I cut off the excess.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.smouwen.nl\/blog\/include\/images\/blog_images\/%23SSSDT\/2014\/IMG_4049.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"803\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-9666\/ranger-inkessential-inkssentials-glossy\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Glossy Accents<\/a> I highlighted a couple of things. Like the bats of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=122837&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">A Bunch of Bats<\/a> die and the umbrella of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-46733\/cms140-mini--halloween\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Trick-or-Treaters<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.smouwen.nl\/blog\/include\/images\/blog_images\/%23SSSDT\/2014\/IMG_4050.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=303789&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">spider webs<\/a> needed something extra to make them stand out more, I applied with a small brush <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/servlet\/the-35678\/huge-large-jar-crack\/Detail\" target=\"_blank\">Rock Candy Distress Crackle Paint<\/a>.
