Moonstone Dies - Haunted Village includes 9 metal cutting dies.
• 3 different style abandoned buildings/houses
• 1 spooky bare tree
• 1 old picket fence
• 1 crescent moon
• 2 different sized clouds
• 1 chimney smoke
Create eerie haunted houses with smoke rising from the chimneys and set the midnight scene with the moon and clouds. Add your tree and tattered fence, to complete the finishing touches for your spooky scene!
The quirky, silhouette style of the dies are great for a variety of card styles and can simply be cut from black or coloured cardstock, or even black mirri card for that extra added effect!
Another option is to place the pieces upon an inked background, or stencil/stamp your own background to match the scene. You could even complete your houses by placing mirri or parchment behind the windows for an added level of detail.
Add further distressed details to your village scene or create your own mysterious backgrounds with ink pads, glimmer mists, textured pastes, embossing powders and glitters, etc. The list really is endless!
These metal cutting dies are ideal for using on greeting cards, embellishing your scrapbooks and collages, decorating your handmade boxes, etc! You can even use them to decorate your journals, diaries and notebooks.
For advanced crafters, you can be adventurous and apply colour to your cut out shapes, using ink pads, blending sponges, glimmer mist, brush markers, etc. Or why not add sparkle by using coloured gemstones or glitter. You can even try cutting into parchment, glitter card, acetate and more.
