Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my Paint It Black Card using Wednesday from The Girl by C.C. Designs. This fun box card is perfect for Halloween with its gothic feel!

The Details of My Card

I love the new Wednesday TV series and when I saw these stamps by C.C. Designs, I couldn’t resist getting them to colour! Since Wednesday is always in black, I pulled out my Cool Copic markers to colour her up. To make her eyes pop, I used a matt black gelly roll pen on them. Thing is on the same stamp, but it was an easy snip with my paper snips to separate him so that I could place him with his lit match facing Wednesday.

For my card, I wanted to recreate the scene where Wednesday is playing her cello on her balcony. So, I decided that a box card would be fun! I found online a digital stamp of the window that I printed at 2 7/8” from my computer and die cut with a 3” circle die. Since, my box card had multiple layers, I added the window to the back layer, Wednesday to the middle layer and Thing to the front layer to create lots of dimension.

For the balcony, I embossed black card stock with a brick embossing folder and then rubbed Firebird wax on the bricks to make them pop and give them a red tint. The top filigree was a gate die that I repurposed to just use the top part of the die cut to give my balcony a gothic feel. The banister railing was also another die that I repurposed to add to the gothic as well. For both die cuts, I rubbed Brushed Iron Wax on to make them look ancient.

Next, I white embossed the sentiment from the BFF Stamp Set and die cut it out with a retired Stampin’ Up! die. Love this fun sentiment that Gomez calls Wednesday in the series! Finally, I added some black rhinestones to add a subtle sparkle to my card.
