Boo!


The Serendipity DT challenge this month was to make a halloween card.
And I have to tell you I was WAY out of my comfort zone...LOL!!

I found this cute little ghost image. I popped up the fence and made it a little longer to fit the frame. I have done some masking on the trees, which by the way is from the new line of stamps. The background is sponged with Distress Inks, and the frame is embossed with a cuttlebug embossing folder.

Be sure to check out these amazing works as well:

    Dette var ett skikkelig flott kort. Det er virkelig dybde i motivet og det er nydelig. Morsomt motiv- utenfor komfortsonen? Skulle ikke tro det. Forrige kortet ditt er også flott.
