Beware

Hello bloggers!  I started this card by covering a piece of black card with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I peeled the backing paper off and coated it with Pink Sunset Gilding Flakes.  I used a piece of Rubit Scrubit pad to move the flakes around on the card, then refine and remove the excess flakes.  I cut two circles, about 2 inches in diameter in both black and white card.  I used the white circle as a shadow behind the black one and glued it to the upper corner of the card.  Next I cut the Boo To You Frame twice out of black card.  I nipped away one side of both of them, then rejoined them to make a larger frame.  I glued it over the corner of the moon.  I cut the Grim Reaper out of black gloss card and added him inside the frame.  I cut two headstones in black to go next to him.  I cut the Beware sentiment in both black and white card.  I shadowed the black die cut with the white one slightly offset behind it and glued it to the upper corner.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/4"  x  7 1/2"in size.

Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, you can almost feel the heat coming off the card through the vibrant fire colours.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue. I have to agree with June Smith, you can almost feel the heat coming off the card with this fabulous background colour. I can see you have had a lot of fun making the samples for this Halloween collection. It is not something I would necessarily rush out and buy but I have enjoyed looking at all your cards and taking inspiration from them.

Hi Sue, the main picture looks really dark and menacing but the close-ups look to be much brighter so I think it is one that needs to be seen IRL to appreciate properly.
