Spooky Halloween

The current Inspired by... Halloween challenge looks quite spooky as does my Halloween card...

First the inspiration





then my card




Stamps: Recollection (sentiments), Stampin' Up (distressed background), Inkadinkado (little spider)
Dies: Sizzix (skull)

Stamped the sentiment set as it was as a background, added the distressed background, and sponged around the edges. Cut out the skull from watercolor paper for the texture. Mounted it on black, sponged a little around the edges, and added green sequins in the eye sockets.


Also sending this to

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge "Halloween/Spooky"




Hope I didn't scare you too much, hehe...

Be well and keep in touch!

Oh Susanne,
beimInspirationsfoto wurde mir schon gaaaaanz gruselig!
Deine Karte hat diesen Zustand bei mir zwar etwas gemildert, ist aber immer noch recht gruselig.
Halloween ist zwar so gar nicht meine Welt, aber ich finde die Karten, die dazu gestaltet werden, wie auch Deine, immer recht interessant uns auch passend zum Thema.
LG Flo

Halloween ist so gar nicht meins.
Aber deine Karte hat was. Coole Kombi mit dem Lila.
Liebe Grüße Katrin

You get a prize from me for actually having a spooky Halloween card, Susanne! So many of us say "spooky" in the title or in the post, but then our cards are actually adorable, lol. Not you! You mean it! I love all the ways you made this scary, right down to the itty-bitty spider on his head!! ❤Hugs, Darnell

That skull. So freaky. I love how you distressed the top of the skull to add depth. Thank you for playing along with us at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge!

Sorry for the late comment, Susanne! I was back in Tokyo in late October. Great Halloween card! Love the design and the color palette! It's so cool! The green sequins in the eye sockets make the skull look really spooky!!
