Zenspirations- Fangtastic!

Impression Obsession has a new line of stamps called "Zenspirations" and are designed by Joanne Fink. Today the IO design team is hosting a blog hop to introduce you to the stamps. I really think you are going to like them!

For my card, I used images from a Halloween set called When Life CL336. I also used a stair-step card from The Paper Cut as the base of my card. It looks like I did a lot of work to cut and fold my card, but I didn't. The card comes with all the cuts and scores already done for you, which really works for me!

To begin, I stamped the Cover a Card Halloween text onto the card using black versafine ink and then edged the piece with Black Soot Distress Ink. I then added some bats from the sets that I colored with black and grey watercolor pencils and a blender pen.

Here is a side view of the card to see the popped up bats:

I then punched out a yellow circle and added some Scattered Straw Distress Ink around the edges, added "Fangtastic" saying, and added a pumpkin that I colored with Copic Markers.

Here is another picture to see the pumpkin view of the card:

I thought it looked odd that all the color was on the right-hand side of the card, so I stamped the Cover a Card again and colored some of the words with Copic markers before gluing them to my card.
