Potions and things.....

Happy Monday! Here I am again with the Monday post for ABC Toys and Crafts- and I am posting another fabulous (if I don't say so myself!) Halloween card. This one is a big "darker" than a few of the other ones I have been making over the last few weeks. Potions, crows, black and green versus the fun and whimsical and bright colors. But don't be scared- I think it is pretty safe. The base of this card is cream and then I have a piece of Kiwi because it just seemed to go so well with that potion paper from Martha Stewart (all of these are from her halloween pack). I inked up my edges and did a little distressing (how fun was that?). Now that I have it made you can not tell really well but the potion bottle piece is made with my new spellbinders- I will have to use it again soon so you can see the fabulous shape!




So what did I use on this card? Martha Stewart Paper, Hero Art Gems, Memento Tuxedo, Tim Holtz Distressor, Hero Arts Frightful, Spellbinder Label 23, EK success 3D dots, Bakers Twine.
This month we are challenging you to create a card or project with pumpkins on it- it is the perfect challenge for this time of year and Julie is giving away a super prize- come join us!
