Hello and welcome to the Stamping Dreams Blog Hop where we are making ‘trick or treat’ cards using the Twisted in Time stamp set and the Thoughtful Journey dsp.
To recreate the trick or treat card, you will need:
Night of Navy card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” Basic White card – 5⅛” by 3⅜” Thoughtful Journey dsp – 5” by 3¼” Basic White card – 4⅛” by ½” Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
The twisted tree image was stamped in Secret Sea ink onto the panel of Thoughtful Journey dsp. I used a stamp positioner because I wanted to stamp the image multiple times to get a darker image, but you can just ink it very well and use an E block.

The leafy canopy was then added with Secret Sea ink. I used a Blender Pen to colour each leaf with Whisper White ink. All the leaves were coloured once; others were coloured multiple times to give added texture.
