This past week-end I had a play with one of Kerri Bradford's This & That kits. This is my first card as part of her design team. For some reason I am in the mood for Halloween. I love the rich colors and the whimsical Haunted House.
I created the "Tombstone" shape in the Silhouette software by welding a circle and rectangle together, them placed the bat with-in a circle to mock a moon before I cut it out.
I also tried something different... I used Tim Holtz Distress Crackle Paint (Rock
Candy) on the bat and fence. It dries so fast and gave me the texture I
wanted. Such a superb product!!!
After using Distress Inks with an applicator to color my shapes, I stamped them with larger background images. I blotted the Envelope Pattern image with a baby wipe to give it a more imperfect look.

This year I'm bringing my son Scooter with me so he can visit with my husbands family.... and catch a Twins game. I'm going to put him to work first thing setting up our booth. What's he going to say...no???
I hope you all have a great week!
