With Halloween nearly here, I should have taken the colors from colourQ and made another card featuring some of my favorite spooky stamps. But I didn't. For the second week in a row, I challenged myself to make a card that was about something other than witches or goblins!
Ha! Even the graphic says "Happy Halloween!" It was a lot of fun to take these colors and turn them on their head to make something unexpected. I'll admit that I very nearly made a Halloween card until I saw Chupa's Sketchbook Saturday challenge and my creative juices got going.
As you can see, I turned the sketch on its side but I think that's ok! I really like how Chupa used a piece of Vellum in the center of her "polaroid" so I did the same only I embossed it with the Elegant Lines embossing folder. The big flower is from the Flower, Daisies #2 Sizzix die which I cut from Tangerine Tango and finished up the center with a So Saffron button tied with some baker's twine.
I hope you have a chance to check out the cards made by the super-fabulous colourQ design team. Then ink up those stamps and join us!
