It's time to celebrate!!! It's finally October, and that means it's time for the Smeared & Smudged 31 Days of Halloween! My absolute favorite time of the year. I'm super excited because I won last year, and I can't wait to show you some things I made with my winnings. Plus, I am representing Dreamweaver Stencils on certain days (like today), and I am thrilled to show you what an exciting company they are! So here's my first piece.....
I used Dreamweaver's Jack o Lanterns (LL 531) stencil for this card. And I had a lot of fun with them! I used the Molten Metal technique.
I started with Glossy Black Embossing Paste and applied it with a palette knife over the stencil. I removed the stencil, and while the paste was still wet, I sprinkled on 3 colors of Metallic F/X Powders. I used Pewter, Eye of the Tiger and Gold Dust. I then heated the Jacks with my embossing gun and watched them bubble! That was fun. Then I dusted off the excess powder. Simple, and what a cool effect!
The other stencil I used was the brand new Quatrefoil (LX 7027). I sprayed it with Diet Cola Memories Mist and then carefully flipped it and placed it on to my cardstock. I also added my sentiment, which is from Smeared Ink's Creepy Little Grumpies set.
There you have it! Day 1! Please be sure to visit all of the Wicked Bloggers, listed in my side bar. Thanks for stopping by. Have a creeptastic day!

The jack-o-lanterns are perfection. Spooky, frightful, yet beautiful.
