Hi Crafty friends here with the new Franky and Draky Dies from the Pixi Dust Designs Stream Team Release! You know with my last name that I was going to love Franky! My daughter’s nickname on the swim team years ago was Frankie. Only because there was another girl that was also a Taylor.

Anyhow, to start off I wanted to do more than a Cake box with this new die set. I wanted to make it a card as well. I later even thought of Tags. My girlfriend saw them and she said how cute they would be for a wine bottle tag as a hostess gift! Red wine of course with Dracula!😆

For my Draky card I first ink blended a standard A2 panel with blue inks and on the outer edge I went in with a black ink for the spookiness! Next with a Bat stencil from my stash I ink blended on in a couple of areas some of the bats. Not wanting it to be a full panel. Then I splattered on some water droplets and with a clean paper towel dabbed if off. Then with some Perfect Pearls for a shimmery effect. Set it to the side to dry.

I then die cut out Draky keeping his skin a very pale peach color. Of course he had to be in black and red for his outfit.

Once he was all adhered together I popped him up with some 3D foam squares.

The panel is now dry and attached to the card base and Draky is popped on. But I still needed a sentiment from my stash, and this one says it all! 

Now for Franky, I made the Slice of Cake Dies, with a lime green and black card stocks. I did do a little ink blending on the edges of the die cuts to give them some depth. Also I dress Franky up a bit, giving him rosy cheeks and a glittery Lapelle on his jacket. Franky is ready for a night out on the town with his bow tie and all.

Also I wanted to let you know that I did stamp out a cute little sentiment on the inside of the box for a nice surprise to the recipient. Mine said, “ I’m NUTS (and BOLTS) about you. Fitting don’t you think?

What’s your favorite product from the release? Let me know in the comments!
