SHOPPING OUR STASH #269 - Cut and Paste



Hello crafty friends! It's time for a new challenge at SHOPPING OUR STASH! This week, we want you to make a card or project using stencils and dies - no stamps allowed!  It's a lot easier than you might think! Here's what I came up with:


 Here is the inside:

I started by sponging white ink onto black cardstock using a paisley stencil. Once I heat set the ink, I hand drew all the eye sockets. Instant ghosts! I cut my panel to size and matted it onto purple foil cardstock, and adhered to my card base. I broke out my Slice die cutter for the die cut sentiment and larger ghost. Once I adhered them, I decided to carefully add some Stickles to the Boo. On the inside, I found a sticker in my stash to use. 

So now it's your turn! Have some fun using those hoarded stencils and dies, and link up your project at Shopping Our Stash! For more inspiration, check out what my teammies, and our Guest Designer, Jennifer, have made, and leave them some bloggy lovin!

Just a reminder, if you wish to be considered for our Guest Designer for October, simply add a 'DT' after your name when you link up! Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a great day!
