Time for the August Two Old Bats Halloween Challenge! We have a great inspiration board, but you're free to share "anything Halloween". I chose the top left quadrant.

I started this card with a scrap of yellow card stock (left over from the menus at my son's wedding in September 2008!). I die cut a circle from a piece of paper and sponged on Hero Arts "Unicorn" pigment ink. Then I sponged on orange, red, and sepia inks, as well as sepia tree branches at the bottom edges. Using an ancient clear stamp that I had never used, I overprinted the raven/gate image - then I immediately threw it away because I couldn't get a solid black image. I had to go back in with black markers to fill in the ravens. The "two old bats" at the top right are from Tim Holtz. Once the yellow/orange work was complete, I die cut the yellow cardstock with a deckle edge die and matted it with a larger black deckle edge rectangle. Finally, I attached a tag with a white heat-embossed sentiment, using yellow and white baker's twine.
Remember that you can enter our challenge more than once, and our Design Team has some great inspirational ideas for you!
Fabulously created scene and a perfect take on the mood board, well done!!
