Happy Halloween!

This is the one-and-only Halloween card I made this year.  And I didn't even send it to anyone, LOL!  I really like the Spooky Bats Punch so I bought it bundled with the coordinating Spooky Sweets stamp set.  I also bought the Black Foil Sheets, which is what these bats are punched from, though it was hard to capture their glossiness in the picture.  That's all the Halloween stuff I bought this year.  No Designer Series Paper, no embellishments.  In large part this is because I knew I wouldn't be set up to hold classes yet, but also because Halloween is not widely celebrated here in Australia.  Shops are trying to get it going, but it's definitely a North American holiday!

So to make a card I had to be creative.  I used the starry background from the Bokeh Dots set and Basic Gray ink applied with a sponge dauber on Whisper White card stock.  I matted it on Basic Gray card stock and added the bats with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.  The sentiment from Spooky Sweets was stamped in Pumpkin Pie and cut with a Layering Circles Die, and mounted on Basic Black card stock cut with the next larger die and popped up with Dimensionals.  A Pumpkin Pie card base ties everything together.

So for all my friends and family in the States, here you go...may you get many more treats than tricks today!
