And here we are the day after Halloween (for me here on the west coast). I hope everyone had a spectacularly fa-boo-lous time last night! But, don't go away - stay around for a whole new annual 365 day rotation of Halloween cards and projects! Our new mood board features lots of black, white, and gray with some orange. I'm anxious to see what all of our followers make of it.
My card is a take-off from the top right quadrant with a misty, foggy forest scene and witch in silhouette - except that I substituted the witch for one of my favorite Halloween dies from Whimsy Stamps, Count Dracula. When I started working with the layout I determined that it would work best in a square format and started with a dark warm gray card base. I added a panel of black and white printed branches matted with black and attached both to the face of the card. To obscure the background, I added a slightly smaller square panel of vellum to give it a "foggy" cast and slipped in an additional vellum moon between the layers and over-stamped a couple of Tim Holtz bats in black. The woodland scene was done with a couple of layers of birch trees from Impression Obsessions dies, cut from black and dark warm gray card stock.
Here are this month's prizes for the drawing:
