The other day I got this idea to use this background stamp to make this Trick or Treat Watercolor Wash Halloween Card. The Watercolor Wash is a large background stamp, and I colored it with several markers to make a multi-colored background. After coloring with markers, be sure to “huff” (or breathe) on the inked stamp to remoisten the ink before stamping. I thought using Halloween colors with the Watercolor Wash stamp would be fun and interesting!
I recommend getting these background stamps in the wood-mount version. I just think it’s easier to use them on the wood block. I think the really big stamps and the really little stamps are better wood-mounted, and you don’t have to do any mounting as they are all ready to stamp!
After stamping the background, I used the Howl-o-Ween Treat Stamp set for the “Trick or Treat” words, the pumpkin die-cut and the stamped spiders! It’s a fun Halloween stamp set plus comes with matching Boo To You framelits dies. You can also purchase the Bundle and save 15%.
Don’t forget about the very short Stampin’ Up! Stamp Sale, which ends on Friday, October 23!! That is tomorrow! All stamps are 15% off! Don’t miss out!
