Happy Halloween!

It is a rainy, windy, dreary day here in Chicago. Fall is definitely here, and you can feel that winter is right around the corner! And with it, is Halloween! I have a Halloween card to share with you today that I created for the Cricut Circle last year. It is a fun little card that uses the October 31st and Winter Woodland cartridges. The window was backed with a piece of vellum, so the the spider was just a soft shadow behind it. The branch was cut from Winter Woodland several times to give it extra dimension. I also embossed the branch with the Distressed Stripes folder and a bit of white acrylic paint. The leaves were rubbed in a gold ink after being crumpled and then flattened.
The papers are by Cosmo Cricket. The pumpkin was inked a bit with brown ink and glossy accents applied to the entire image. The sentiment is an old stamp of mine from Inkadinkadoo.


Off to get my rain gear on and head out the door this morning! ; ) Have a great day my friends!
