Hi everyone - this week at Paper Cutz the challenge is OH SO hard. Make a Halloween card not using black or orange!!! WHHHHHHAAAAAAA????? But what a fun challenge - seriously I had a blast trying to do this. Earlier this week I posted the Ghouls Just Want to Have Fun Card - remember that - ah ha - no black and orange on that one too!! I've been practicing! LOL Anyhow, on to this simple card.
I cut the bright yellow moon out with my nestables and stamped trick or treat from my $1 G studio stamps in Chocolate Chip from Stampin Up'. I also used my handy dandy make-up sponge to dab some eery clouds over the moon in the same color. I then used a piece of purpley paper (really it's not black) from my Tim Holtz Ideology stack for the background and took my moonlight ink pad and the sponge and inked a halo of moonlight before adhering the moon. Next, I colored this sweet little girl I got from All That Scraps with my Copics and placed her on this little tree stump I got at the same place.
I cut her out and glued her down...at this point the card looked a little plain so I tried some bats - they don't look so good if they aren't black - LOL and so I just decided to stamp some little cobwebs in my moonlight stamp ink and stickle them. I added a bit of stardust stickles to her outfit too, did a bit of stitching with my gelly roll pen and then added this cute little spider button that matched with everything - see no black and orange!!! Please join us at Paper Cutz this week and challenge yourself - I know you will love the results!
Enjoy!
