Color Q challenge #106- Spooky colors!

Hi everyone! I had to play along in this weeks Color Q color challenge - I can't resit using these great colors to make one last Halloween card.


I grabbed a Doodlebug gray and black card base I picked up at Archivers a while back and thought to myself "Hmmm.....I think I'll do a spider web card for this!"
I got out my favorite spider web stamp by Hero Arts and embossed it in clear powder- then to give the web some depth I used my Copic cool gray marker (C-3) to go around all the sections. Then I rummaged though my goodie box of Halloween items and found this big bat die cut a friend has sent my last year. I was really looking for a big old spider (swore I had some of these)...but found none. I die cut a circle for the moon- got out my distress inks in wild honey and spiced marmalade and edged up the moon. Used another Hero Arts stamp for the sentiment. A pretty quick and easy card to mass produce.


Trick or Treat


I don't know about you but I still have to get a few more Halloween cards addressed and  in the mail by this Monday......or I'll get too busy and they will be  forgotten or just be terribly late.......I hate sending cards out late!

Products Used:



Just thought I would ask...............what are your kids dressing up for this year for  Halloween? My seven year old boy is going to be the same as last year.......the "Grim Reaper"....unless he changes his mind at the last minute- which could very well happen.


Thanks for dropping by and hope you all have a great day and are enjoying fall!
