Hi Everyone!
Are you ready for another Halloween card from me today? This is from the set Creepy Crow by Lindsay's Stamp Stuff and I love this image with the scraggly tree...Very creepy and perfect for this time of year!
I was so excited to see the challenge this week at Cinema Saturday was The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the requirement was to use a tree...Yay! It has been a long time since I have been able to participate and it's one of my favorite challenges.
To make this card, I masked off sky at an angle, sponged on brown ink to create the ground, then swapped it for the bottom and sponged on a moon and sky.
I had this traditional stamp with spooky eyes, so I created a background using that...
and a piece of digital paper from the set School Papers (See, not just for school projects!) also from Lindsay's Shop. After I completed the card, something seemed to be missing, and that's when I added the sentiment with another traditional stamp. Yay, done.
Here is a total look at both of those sets:
Lindsay and the rest of the design team are full of ideas this week...Visit them today for more inspiration!
