Happy Halloweeny! ...

....  Hello!  I'm back today with another Halloween card (yes, I know I said I was done, but I fibbed!).

Stamps: Stampin' Up! - Mingle All the Way, Good Greetings; Stampendous - Halloween Diamonds
Inks: Memento - Tuxedo Black; SU - Pumpkin Pie; Distress - Spiced Marmalade; Versamark
Accessories: White Lustre Card; Graphic 45 DP - Steampunk Spells; Cosmic Shimmer Mica - Soft Gold; Copic Markers; Metal Charm


I'm submitting this card to Retro Sketches - RS#135 where we could pick any previous sketch and I've gone with RS#38, but made it landscape.  I've used the colours from The Card Concept - CC#20 and gone with a clean and layered look.  The design paper doesn't actually come in orange, I coloured it by blending distress ink over the top.  I stamped the cobwebs and spider in Versamark and then added some mica powder for shimmer.  The sentiment was stamped in black and I used a copic marker to colour the letters.  I finished the front with an orange banner and a simple metal charm that I found in my stash (no idea who made it).  On the inside I kept it simple with a black mat layer and some cobwebs and a spider and a fun sentiment.

I had a long chat with Ben yesterday, and he asked if he and his girlfriend could come over for a visit.  Obviously, we said yes!  It's still early days yet, but I'm hoping that they'll be here for Thanksgiving!
