Having seen this technique done by Natasha Foote, I wanted to give it a try. I also needed another Halloween card, requested by my neighbor for someone who likes owls. As my buddies know, not my go to type of card usually. Seeing the pink challenge at DD gave me the opportunity to combine the new technique and a Halloween card so here it is. I watched the video a couple of times and then came up with this background. Tash used fine embossing powder but I used Ultra Thick as I wasn’t going for a smooth finish here. I did apply several layers of UT though. I added it to the black card front and set it aside. Using an Infinity circle die from HeroArts I die cut my circle and stamped it with a few images from 2 holiday sets. I added some silver sparkle to the stars and to the owl. It seemed a bit empty so I took the face stamp and used it to fill in a few areas. I managed to smudge them a bit and was going to start again but decided that ghostly faces may be a bit smudged so I left them alone. Then using an alcohol pen I went around the edge of the circle so it had a thin pink border. The sentiment is flat but I added the fussy cut spider to the bottom just for fun. The background is very shiny but the photograph makes the colours look more coral than pink. In reality it has 3 different tones of pink and one dark shade that is kind of burgundy. Stamp sets used are from GKD.
Thanks for spending time with me today and for those living in Canada, Happy Thanksgiving.

Very cool tile technique, Johanna, thanks for sharing the link. I really like the broad black border around your card and just enough Halloween spook images. Happy Thanksgiving.

Thanks a lot. I wonder if we could do this with a butterfly? Paper would need to be really small but it sure would make a different look for the wings.

Thanks a lot. I’m happy you like it and like you I’ve had my UT forever, but occasionally I still pull it out. I find it is quicker than the fine detail if I want a lot of coverage and shine.
