BOO!

Over at my Facebook Group The Joy of Sets we are running a Hallowe'en card swap. Hallowe'en is a much maligned festival - with the true meaning lost in the Hollywood hype.  It's only recently become popular in the UK as it is in the US but people still don't send Hallowe'en cards.  For me it is a time for remembering those members of my family who are no longer with me - and sadly I have quite a few.

My card for the swap though was a bit more of a traditional Hallowe'en style using a very old set from SU called Bitty Boo.  This is more than 10 years old but it is the only set I have with Hallowe'en style images so I thought it deserved an outing.

I started off with some samples of SU Designer Series Paper and cut them out with a small square stitched frame.  The Hallowe'en images were stamped onto white card stock in Memento Ink and SU Tangerine Tango.  The orange ones have a layer of Spectrum Noir Sparkle in Harvest Moon. I've just bought this set of three coloured sparkle pens from Spectrum Noir and they are perfect for Autumn cards.

I layered them onto some black card stock and added a touch of Washi Tape in the middle.  I cut out the bat and added some yellow rhinestones.  The black was then layered onto some Crushed Curry Cardstock.

I'm adding this into the following challenges:
