Halloween neutrals ...

.... Morning!  This is one of my scheduled posts - set up as our son, Ben, and his girlfriend, Sophie, are visiting for a couple of weeks.

I've a clean, simple and graphic Halloween card for you this morning:

Stamps: Waltzingmouse - Woodgrain; MFT - Primitive Pumpkins
Inks: Stampin' Up! - Smoky Slate, Craft Whisper White; Distress - Antique Linen, Old Paper, Hickory Smoke, Weathered Wood; Versafine - Onyx Black
Dies: Die-namics - Primitive Pumpkins
Accessories: White Lustre Card; SU Card - Smoky Slate

I really like the photo used at The Card Concept - CC#41 - the weathered wood chair, the cream pumpkins and dark floor - just fab.  I decided to make the woodgrain finish the main feature of the background - I stamped the woodgrain image in grey and softened it by rubbing over with a white pigment ink.  I stamped the pumpkins in Distress ink and cut them out with the matching dies.  I added a row of rustic stars to ground the pumpkins and finished by adding a sentiment.  On the inside I cut a mat layer of grey card and added a Halloween greeting to the white panel - and some more pumpkins!!

I'm also submitting this card to the current challenge at AAA Cards - AAA#50.  The graphic they have used this week has 4 pumpkins - and so do I!!   Not sure it's as clean and simple as the team would like, but it is simple!

That's all for today.
