The weekend is going just too fast.
At Sentimental Sundays it is Halloween time. My card is certainly not what I planned - it was going to be something entirely different, but it did not work.
On to a black base I layered two pieces of Apothecary papers - one spotted and the top one has the tree on it which I tore apart so that some of the spotted paper was visible. I overstamped with the spider, cat, wire and splodges - all Stampotique stamps and I then stamped the web on a separate piece of orange paper and also a bat. The skeleton was cut out and overlaid again. The other stamps were all Tim Holtz.
For the inside I over printed one of the Sentimental Sundays freebie sentiments on to orange paper and inked the edges.
