A2 landscape top folding card. 

Some more Red, White and Blue with a twist of spooky in honor of 4th of July

This card turned out creeper than expect (at least to me).  I used a bat stencil for the background.  Ink blended some blue around the edges.  I found a very old flag die cut element and paired it with a skull stamp by Tim Holtz.  At this point, I felt it still needed something else, so I stamped those distressed spider webs, with are also by Tim Holtz.

Here's this month's mood board for additional inspiration...

I used Waffle Flower’s Postage Collage die to stamp some spooky images (all from Simon Says Stamps) and used markers and glitter pens to color my stamped images.

I stamped, colored and fussy cut this spooky cute pumpkin head little guy from Sweet November Stamps several times, so I just had to use him again.

For this card, I used a text pattern paper as my background.  An oval frame full of star sequins for a fun shaker element and my pumpkin head kid in front.

Oops! my glitter pen went crazy while brushing on a lite coating of sparkle, but I rolled w/it.

Card is an A2 top folding.  Extra... cat hair on my backdrop.  I can't get away from the stuff.

I love this pumpkin head little guy from Sweet November Stamps.

I stamped a large spooky house on my card base and inked blended the bottom (path to to house) with Black Soot Distress Oxide.

I stamped, colored and fussy cut the pumpkin head kid and added him to the card front on dimensional foam.

I went super simple on this card.  Using a digital venus fly trap image, I arranged several of them on my panel.  I color the flowers with a green fluorescent glitter marker.  The background I colored with two dark green markers for a variegated look.
