Happy Howl-oween Card by Guest Designer Brennan Keane

Today we a special guest post to share. We are featuring more inspiring work from the talented young Brennan Keane 


 

I'm back, back, back again! Hi everyone, my name is Brennan and I am a 15 year old teenage boy who’s obsessed with creating cards with florals! However, I’m here to shock y’all today, because I made a Halloween card!

To start off, I masked a small strip of my card front and blended in some Crown Me ink from Simon Hurley and added a distressed effect with a Distress Ink pad in the color Black Soot. I also added a little water to get the splatter. I then used the new Spooky Line Stencil with some Solar Paste in the color Slippery When Wet to create the eerie Halloween sky!

I used the adorable Ghostly Good Times stamp set and stamped out both the dog and cat ghosts. Now it’s time to color! For the cat, I used Copics in the colors, from darkest to lightest, BG13, BG23, and BG11. For the dog, I used the colors, also from darkest to lightest, Y19, Y18, and Y15.

To finish off the card, I stamped the sentiment “ Happy Howl-oween”!
Lastly, I added a black matte and glued everything onto my card base. I hope you all enjoy this spookdorable (I created a new word!) Halloween card!

As always, thank you to Jen and Sam for another guest design opportunity! Have a great rest of your day everyone and happy crafting!

Brennan
