TSG Sneak Peek -- Spooktacular Shilouettes


Happy Fall and welcome to There She Goes Sneak Peek & Blog Hop Challenge!! TSG Trendsetters are going to show you the project with using Octorber release sets (available on Sunday, September 27th) for the next 3 days! If you hopped over from Jodi's blog, you're on a right track. If not, you may want to start from TSG blog for the fun event.

Today's Sneak Peek set is called Spooktacular Shilouettes. it's baaaack by popular demands after completely sold out last year!! You will have so much fun with making all Halloween projects with these fun & whimsical images for sure!


The first card is easy and quick. I cut out the all circles with punches (I used the Nesties for the black circles because I don't have 1 1/2" circle punch) and simply stamped the each image. The moon on behind the tree was stenciled and the circles mats were edged with coordinated colors. After the sentiment mat was sponged & stamped, it was embellished with the rhinestones to finish.



For the second card, I created the spooky scene with sponging, stenciling & masking. First, I stamped the tree and the moon. Then I sponged the ground and stamped the tombstones. Next, I masked the tombstones and stenciled the clouds. After the scene mat were placed on the card, I attached the fence, the flying witch & the black cat to complete the scene. Again, the rhinestones were embellished for the finish.
