Beautiful Bones Series - Card Two

Hi All!  I love making cards like the one I am sharing today, so I have decided to start a series of cards I am calling Beautiful Bones.  I don't know how often I will add to this series, or how many cards it will contain, but I do know that I have made a similar card to this previously, please click here to see Card One, and already have ideas for more.  I am in love with Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous stamp sets that contain a variety of bone and skeleton stamps.  I really enjoy stamping them out in black ink on white cardstock, and then coloring flower stamps to adorn the bones.  I am entering today's card into Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - Spooky, and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Make a Card + Envelope.  

I started this card by die cutting a piece of white cardstock with the largest die in SSS Wonky Rectangles die set.  I then stamped the cluster of flowers from SSS Look for the Rainbows stamp set onto Copic friendly white paper.  I used the same flower cluster on Beautiful Bones Card One.  It just worked perfectly for both!  I colored the flowers then cut them out with their coordinating die.  

Before stamping the skull image from Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Apothecary stamp set, I used the stamp itself and the cluster of flowers to figure out exactly where I wanted to place the stamp.  I then stamped the skull in black pigment ink, and popped up the flowers with foam tape.  I placed the "haunt" Tim Holtz Idea-ology Halloween Token in the corner, and covered the hole with a copper nailhead sticker. 

Copic colors used for Flowers:

• R00, R11, R20, R22
• BV31, BV01, BV02, BV04
• Y00, Y02, Y06, Y08

Leaves:

• YG01, YG03, YG17
• G21, G24, G94

I finished off this card by adding glitter to the leaves, and glitter and glossy accents to the flower centers.  For the envelope, I stamped the half skull image from Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Anatomy Chart stamp set in one of the front corners in silver ink.  Thank you and I hope you enjoyed my card today!
