Brutus Monroe Inspiration Team Blog Hop - October Subscription Products

Hello crafty friends! Thanks for joining me today! It's another blog hop Wednesday for the Brutus Monroe Inspiration Team, and we're using some of the October subscription products. For my card, I used the October stamp set, which is the hilarious fake vampire teeth stamp that comes with the "Trick or Treat" sentiment.


For the background, I used a piece of glossy cardstock, and two of the new colors of surface spray, Cabbage and Aubergine. I covered the background in Cabbage first and dried it with my heat tool, and then sprayed some Aubergine through on of the older stencil club stencils. I heat embossed the stamp with purple Night Shift embossing powder, and heat embossed the sentiment with Alabaster EP onto Raven cardstock.


I used two of the Halloween chipboard borders, Spider Webs and Skulls and I cut two of them off each strip. I squished my embossing ink pad onto the whole surface and embossed the skulls with Alabaster EP and the spider webs with the purple Night Shift EP. I glued the spider webs to the background, and then popped up the skulls and the vampire teeth with foam tape. I cut a slit in the vampire teeth and slipped the sentiment through, to make it look like it was coming out of the mouth! I finished it off with some clear acrylic bubbles and matted it on some Raven cardstock.

Hello crafty friends! Lauren here, and I am so excited to be a part of this hop! Starting my blogging journey with a collaboration from two AMAZING companies, Brutus Monroe and Unity Stamp Co., is a dream come true. This collaboration includes four gorgeous backgrounds that you NEED in your collection! Background stamps are incredibly versatile; there are so many cool projects that you'll see as you follow this hop. Be sure to check out the Instagram hop as well, because they are doing a giveaway for a few lucky commenters! Click here for my Instagram... The card was made with the Barn Wall background stamp. I started by stamping it in Brutus Monroe's Raven ink , and then using a laser printer to photocopy the image onto the Brutus Monroe aqua pigment paper . Luckily it is lightweight enough to not jam up the laser printer! I used DecoFoil in the color "Gold" and ran the project through my laminator, leaving this lovely gold foiled background. Ne
