Two Old Bats Halloween Challenge: September 2025 Anything Goes Halloween

Our favorite ghoul friends Darlene and Diane have a great mood board for us this month - I'll bet you can't figure out which quadrant I chose for inspiration for the next two weeks!

I started with some orange card stock and black ink and stamped an old Impression Obsession background cover (#CC141 C-A-C "Spider Web"). I trimmed the image down to a rectangle using one of my deckle-edged dies from Tim Holtz. I like how the spiderweb above is highlighted with white, so I used my white gel pen to add a bit of interest to one area of the image. I mounted a black rectangle (cut from black spiderweb embossed cardstock) onto the face of an orange card base, edged the deckle panel with some black Copic marker, and mounted it to the front of the card. I added the die-cut "EEK!" (new-to-me Whimsy Stamps #WSD567 "EEK! Word and Shadow Die Set" and a fussy-cut spider from some printed Halloween card stock. I had some fun with the spider by fussy-cutting a tiny skull from a scrap of printed paper and adding it to her butt and a couple of tiny orange gems as eyes. 

AND LOOK! We have new items for the drawing - and this time there will be no minimum entries! Get your project in and win a chance at these great prizes!
