Hand Stamped Sentiments Color Challenge 300: Spooky Sweets

Good morning!  Now that it's October people are fully embracing the Holiday season, it's fun seeing all the lights and decorations that are going up in my neighborhood (trust me my neighborhood takes Halloween seriously which is lots of fun!).  Today the Hand Stamped Sentiments team has a fun, seasonal inspiration challenge that is perfect for all the Halloween fun in today's card.

For today's card I used Whisper White Thick cardstock for the cardbase and then sponged around the edges with Pumpkin Pie ink.  Then I added a layer of Basic Back cardstock before adding the card front which is also Whisper White but I sponged around it's edges with Cajun Craze ink.

On the cardfront I stamped using the Spooky Sweets stamp set and used Pumpkin Pie ink for the greeting and Smoky Slate for the background.




The circle was cut out of Mango Melody cardstock using the Big Shot and Stitched Shapes framelits and then sponged around the edges with Cajun Craze ink and a piece of Black 5/8" Glittered Organdy Ribbon is peaking out from the circles edge.  The bats are a stamp also and they perfectly coordinate with the Spooky Bats Punch (not this punch also punches out the bat images in the Toil and Trouble Designer Series Paper).  I used mini dimensionals to attach the bats so they look like they're flying through the night sky.

This card is quick and easy and carries the colors of the inspiration challenge and the season we're in.  Don't forget this stamp set and coordinating punch are offered as a bundle so when you purchase together you will save 10%, time to get cracking on your Halloween projects, before it's too late.  Make sure to check out all the other great cards the design team is sharing with this challenge and then we would love for you to play along with us and share what you create!
