Hi there stampers! I had a lot of fun creating this Halloween card once I got past the unique color palette from Hand Stamped Sentiments! Check it out:
I used lots of old goodies on this card, but of course, Starry Sky is new! So here we go:
My main images are from a retired SU set called Howl-o-ween Treat, and they were cut with their matching Boo to You dies! I diecut a piece of Pool Party DSP with the Basic Borders dies and stamped some spooky spiderwebs and stars on a Starry Sky card base before adhering it.
The sentiment, from the same set, was placed in the Stamparatus, stamped with Starry Sky ink, then without moving the stamp, I cleaned it very well and inked it up again with Versamark ink. Then I embossed it with clear embossing powder:
I added some Starry Sky glimmer paper stars, and on the inside, repeated the colors:
Lots of fun! I am glad HSS pushed me out of my comfort zone with these colors! I am going to enter this at Global Design Project as well, as their challenge this week is "Spooky"!
Thanks for popping in today...enjoy it and be blessed!

Love this so much, LeAnne! What a fabulous way to use that die - spooky cauldrons are the best! Thanks so much for playing at Hand Stamped Sentiments!
Such a cute card LeAnne! I love the way you used the cloud die! So clever, I will have to remember that and CASE it! You did a great job of balancing the colors from the challenge. Thanks for joining the hand stamped sentiments challenge this week!
