Creepy, Spooky - EEK!

Final Halloween card dump! 


I loved putting this card together.  And yes, it IS a Spellbinders Halloween Betterpress plate owned by Bonnie! Trust me, I DO have plenty of my own stamps and things.  However, this is what we do when we get together -- we share our newest things and just stamp and die away for an afternoon.  It is very economical and cost effective! 😉😉. And we are due for another play date now too! 

The image is actually two different press plates, the skull and the witch hat.  I experimented to see how the hat would look on the skull by stamping one directly on it.  Then I stamped another hat and fussy cut it to lay on top. I colored it with Copics.  I smudged Pebble ink around teh skull also to give it a more worn look. The frame die is from Penny Black.  I loooove that frame set! I think it made a good creepy vintage fit to frame around my witchy skull.  I went back and forth with a couple embossing folders before settling on this one.  I think it is a leafy one actually. I flipped it over to the debossed side.  I cut the EEK out of shiny orange paper by Tim Holtz and white as well and bumped it up and added a couple black bats for extra creepiness. 


Thanks for stopping by and come back soon!
Have a sweet day!
