Anywhooooo! I decided I needed to add a scary, somewhat ugly-ish Halloween card to my collection. I mean ugly as in not cute or pretty. It's Halloween. There has to be some element of scary, ugly, gross, surprising and just, eewwww. Right? Onward!
This card was very fun to make and will be one of the projects at the workshop on October 5 in Rancho Cucamonga (details to follow) It can be messy looking because there's no right way to make it. I smudge the card using a cosmetic wedge with black and added the trees from the Holiday Home stamp set, which is one of my favorites because it has so many different stamps covering all of the holidays. Behind the house, I also used a cosmetic wedge using 3 different colors to impress a creepy darkening sunset. For the house I used a the darkest shade of Olive Green of the Blendabilities marker set. I thought it would give it an ugly green hue to fit the theme of the card. Not sure why "ugly" is the go-to word today but I haven't come up with a better description. :-) The bats are from the same stamp set (see? everything.) The shape of the paper with the house on it was made by using my circles framelits (a size that would allow it fit the card) and cutting the sides off with my trimmer.
