Spooky Serenity

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Switching gears with a Halloween card.

 

The Penny Black Saturday Challenge is always Anything Goes with a
different option each  month.  I love the challenge of the option but this month's
Spooky challenge almost stumped me.

Then I saw this Serenity die in my collection and thought I could make it work.

I found a background that I think had been done with Lindy's Magicals. That
bit of blue you can see in the background has a nice shimmer.

Another background of watercolor worked for a big ole full moon.

I had to dip into some other brands of dies to get the bat and ghosts.

Challenges:
Penny Black Saturday - ATG/Option Spooky

What a cute card Bonnie, spooky but not to spooky. lol I love the sky and big moon, just like I think it should look on Halloween night. Your ghosts are to cute. That die is perfect for them to hang out in. Love this! Hugs, Brenda

Ha! Seems one of those little ghosts is enjoying being chased more than the others - just love their expressions!
A really fun use of that die, Bonnie! And such fun things found in your background stash!
