the headless horseman rides

It's NEW RELEASE WEEK at Whimsy Stamps and I'm SUPER excited to debut my Sleepy Hollow Collection, two stamp sets and two die sets (and 3 other sets too!).  There's lots of various options with these 4 products.  The headless horseman and the spooky tree are two different sizes for more versatility, both are smaller in the stamp sets and both are larger in the dies sets. You can tell by the package, if a die cuts out an image it will appear as an outline and if it is solid it's a complimentary die.  Check them out, you know I like to give us lots of options :o)!  ENJOY!

For this card I started with a white card base and cut a large paper circle mask for the giant moon.  I heavily sponged around the mask using Baja, Not Quite Navy, Night of Navy and Elegant Eggplant SU! inks.  I just held the (copy paper) mask down tightly and sponged around it but you could also adhere it using a repositional adhesive such as Dotto for extra security.

I cut the "hill" using the Stitched Border Dies and used it to make a pencil line to help me know where to stamp the cornstalks which were stamps in Versafine black.    

Then I used white embossing powder to emboss the Sleepy Hollow sentiment and glued it flat on the card base.

To complete my card I die cut the Headless Horseman and glued him flat, in the center of the moon.

I love this Sleepy Hollow Collection, it turned out exactly how I envisioned it in my "head".
