For this card, I decided to use this week's sketch from Card Positioning Systems (I flipped it), and I did a tall halloween card to meet the challenges on the Caardvarks blog and Cupcake Crafts blog. The very cool crow image is a digistamp from the Creepy Crows Collection at Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. I printed it twice on white card stock, colored one with chalk, and cut the other one out ( around the branches, etc) with my Cutterbee scissors-you could use a Xacto knife if you prefer. I then sprayed the top layer with an acrylic shine spray. I let it dry, then mounted it on top of the other Crow digistamp with pop dots. I tied an orange ribbon around the bottom of the Crow Stamp, then adhered it to the purple shimmer card I cut out of Wasau paper, added a black vinyl Thickers swirl, and a "Beware" sticker from a sheet of shickers from Target's Dollar Spot, and inked the edges of the card with Graphite Black ink from Brilliance ink to finish off the spooky look. Thanks for looking, now head on over to the other designers' blogs for lots more eye candy, and Lindsay's blog, 'cause I am sure she has a freebie for you today!
