When I saw this Sunday's Curtain Call color challenge, I immediately thought "wow." The colors were so fresh and modern I thought I would love to create something with them. The first thing I made, was a Reeses peanut butter cup holder from directions I discovered here. But the end result was not something that I liked. So then I moved on to a card that was based on this one. Although I love what I came up with, I decided it was too similar to the original. So back to the drawing board I went. I didn't want to do another Halloween card, but that's what I did. Good thing I love Halloween!! For my layout, I turned to the Easy Sketch.
For my card, I went to the vault and used my Autumn Apparitions stamp set. For the most part, I have always loved the Happy Halloween sentiment in this set and I'm pretty sure that's why I've kept it.
I attempted the rock-and-roll technique with the sentiment here. I stamped first with Daffodil delight then stamped the edges with Pumpkin Pie, but I think I went a little too easy with the Pumpkin Pie. To compensate, I sponged the edges of the cardstock with Pumpkin Pie. In real life, it actually looks pretty cool.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have time to stamp today!
