My card today is made from some old and new Tim Holtz Sizzix products. I just got the Tim Holtz Vault Laboratory. It has an embossing folder that fits in the Sidekick machine but I didn't use it. I just love the shelf with the spooky decorations on it. I cut the bottles and spider web from a scrap of holographic cardstock. I love the sparkle and shine it gives off.
The books are cut from inked paper I had on hand. Actually, the cardstock was kind of muddy looking but perfect for these books. You can see the potions inside of the bottles are inked cardstock too. I love saving scraps to use for details like this.
The moon is an old die, Moonlight, #666386. It's discontinued but you may be able to still find it. There's also a new Vault one, the moon is smaller, it's called Moonlight Scare. I inked up some watercolor mixed media cardstock. I 've made a few cards recently with yellow on it, trying to use up the final drops of Distress Mica Stain in Flickering Candlestick. A little goes a long way and I've been able to make quite a few backgrounds from it!
I had one small space left on the shelf so I added a crow. It's also from an old set called Regions Beyond. Another discontinued set, unfortunately.
The background panel is from a paper pad. It has a inked look to it in greys. I just added some ink blending to the edges with Black Soot Distress Oxide ink.
Tip for today: Mix old with new. Always have some already inked paper on hand.
