Back to School at Monster High

Well it's finally here.  The September Release/Hop at Sassy Studio Designs.

You should have arrived here from Chris's blog.  If not, you need to head back to the beginning here.
I was originally going to do a different image (then did a project with the original image-see below) but switched to the Draculara image for my project.  I used this week's Wednesday sketch (#507) by Split Coast Stampers.

I popped up the image panel on homemade black foam squares. I added a smaller image, more DP and another bat on the inside.

I also created something with the original image I chose (Lagoona).  I used the same sketch as above (SCS #507).

Stuff I Used:

Image-Bonnie of the Nile digital image by Sassy Studio Designs

Colored with Copics

Skin-E00, E11

Eyes-E25

Lips-R20, R22

Hair-C1, C3, C5, C7

Cardstock-Stash 

Diecuts-Spellbinders Deckled Rectangles Small

Cuttlebug

Sentiments-Computer generated

I didn't have a die the right size for the long piece behind the image.  So I used the 3rd die from the center to create the shape.

drew the shape on the cardstock 

placed & taped the die on one end of the shape

placed the "C" plate so it didn't cut all the way down 

moved the die to the other end 

again placed the "C" plate not over the entire die 

after the ends were cut 

finished the cuts with my x-acto 

finished piece. Just need to erase lines (or use other side)

Hope this little tutorial was helpful.

Here's a link to a card I made with the Mummy Sassy last year.
