I love Halloween. I used to look forward to dressing up in my costume and trick or treating as a kid. I love all the fun decorations that come with Halloween too, however I will pass on the scary stuff and just stick to the cute stuff. And today's card is no exception. I have a whole page of Halloween cards sketched out so I am going to try to make & feature as many as I can this week before the season is over.
Today's card is another one of those that sprung out of me trying to think about my stamps creatively. I came up with this Halloween card using many different Lawn Fawn sets, none of which are "Halloweeen" themed. I have actually had this idea sketched out for awhile, it is where I first thought about using the card in Cozy Christmas as a book! The idea here was to make a Witchy card without an actual Witch (just her personal items).
Since all my pieces of this card are various colors I wanted my background to be more muted. I also experimented with color mists for the first time. The back panel is inked in Pumice Stone and then sprayed with Mister Huey's Custard spray. I also sprinkled some water & Perfect Pearls Mist for texture. I am really loving the effect of sprinkling my distress inked panels with Perfect Pearls Mist, so be warned you will be seeing more of this. It is a little hard to photograph but I tried to get the light to catch the shine of those silvery spots.
I used 6 sets on this card. I was also going to throw in a cat too, but didn't have room. Maybe that would be a nice addition to the inside. I am entering this card into this week's Wee Memories challenge "Free for All." since I didn't get it made in time for their Holiday challenge. Thanks for stopping by today, I have some more fun stuff lined up for this week so see you again soon!
