October Whit Kit Goes Wicked

This month’s October 2025 Whit Kit from Unity Stamp Co. is all about timeless elegance, but I couldn’t resist giving it a little fang-tastic twist! With spooky season in full swing, I decided to turn this classy retro gal into a sassy vampire who’s ready to say, “I bite.” 😈🩸

💡 The Idea:

I loved the vintage vibe of the image in this month’s kit and thought — what if she was a glamorous vampire from the 1950s? Mixing elegance with a little Halloween mischief was too good to pass up!

The neutral tones and bold black patterns from the Eternal Midnight Weave Paper Pack made the perfect backdrop for a gothic twist. Add a little blood red bling with adhesive back stones colored using Copics and you’ve got a card that’s both spooky and chic.

✂️ Quick Tutorial:

1. Stamp & Color

• I started by stamping the image from the October 2025 Whit Kit using black ink.

• Colored her with alcohol markers, keeping her skin pale for that undead glow.

• Added blue-black hair for a retro vibe and finished with bright red lips (and of course… a little blood dripping from her added fangs! 🩸).

2. Create the Background

• Using the hexagon dies, I cut out a mix of patterned papers — spider webs, damask, and skull prints — all from the Eternal Midnight Weave paper pack.

• Arranged them in a collage style for depth and visual interest.

3. Add Dimension

• Popped up the stamped image and the speech bubble sentiment (“I bite.”) with foam tape for extra dimension.

• Added black enamel dots and rhinestones for sparkle and texture.

4. Assemble the Card

• Layered everything onto a coordinating black and white cardstock base.

  
  

💡Additional ideas...

• Use red ink to add some faux blood splatter in the background.

• Use your own fingers to add red fingerprints on your background. The only time this is acceptable. 🧛🏻‍♀️

• Create a batty background using the Batty Sticker Bundle or the Twilight Swarm Stencil.
