Best of Halloween

It's THURSDAY and time for another Create with Connie and Mary challenge!  It's a fun color challenge…very fall or halloween…just in time to start the season!  So, grab your stamps and play along!

 

Here's my card.  I wanted to do Halloween, since we are featuring that this week over on Create with Connie and Mary Fall Collection, but was challenged with not having black in the combo!  Here's my compromise.  I used Sweater Weather Designer Paper along with the Best of Halloween stamp set!  This image was one that I wanted when it was available before in a larger size.  Glad they brought it back.  This "Best of" has been my favorite so far!

 

 

Here are the details:

1. Crushed Curry is cut to 4 1/4 x 11 and folded in half to make base card.
2. The 3 3/4 x 5 layer of Very Vanilla was embossed with Stylish Stripes Folder (love it!)
3. I added a  1 1/4 x 3 3/4 strip of Sweater Weather DSP brown print towards the bottom.
4. I cut the Crushed Curry plaid from Sweater Weather with the Designer Label Framelit and placed on front with Stampin' Dimensionals.
5. I stamped the tree from Best of Halloween with Chocolate Chip Ink on Very Vanilla, then cut with the smaller sized Designer Label Framelit.
6. I punched a 1/2" Circle from scrap cardstock, placed it on the tree image, then sponged Crushed Curry ink to make the moon and added a tough of Tangerine Tango for a harvest moon look.
7. I stamped the Trick or Treat greeting from Best of Halloween with Chocolate Chip on Tangerine Tango cardstock, then cut flag ends and adhered it on front.
8. To add a little bling, I tied some Linen Thread in the Crushed Curry button and tied a bow then placed it on front with Mini Glue Dots.
