Happy Halloween

Hello there my spooky friends!  I selected a deep blue pixied background from my stash as the base for this card.  I used Midnight Blue Pixie Powders on a piece of white gloss card, then spritzed it with water and covered it with cling film that I scrunched up on it and set it aside to dry.  I cut a circle in white and glued it to the upper corner and added the small flying witch from the Haunted House die set. I cut Jamie's  Spooky Tree in black and glued it to the background and added a raven on the lower branch.  I cut several gravestones out of slate grey card and inked the edges with Black Soot distress ink then scattered them around the tree and glued them into place.  From the same set of Jamie's Graveyard, I cut three of the gate and attached them in front of the gravestones.  I cut the mummy from the Halloween Frame in white, then used a grey pencil to accent the mummy wrappings and lightly inked him with Weathered Wood distress ink before attaching him in the lower right corner.  I cut Jamie's Happy Halloween in black and shadowed it in white then glued it in the upper corner.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  

 I will be posting the winners from the September die release blog launch this afternoon.  Don't forget to pop back by the blog then to see if your name is on the list of winners!    All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue, I doubt it was your intention to put a smile on our faces with a spooky Halloween card but that is what you have done and I am putting the blame squarely on your scaredy-cat mummy lol. It's a shame that I don't 'do' Halloween as this is a great card and I like it very much.
