Double Trouble

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

The Group of Seven Cardmakers is using vellum on our cards this month.

I die cut vellum and put over matching white ghosts to get a more
spooky look.  I attached the vellum at the top so the bottom could hang over
the fence.


I used sponging and lots of fun Halloween stamps in the background and 
had this fun Halloween fence in my stash.

The bat was stamped on Neenah, colored with a Copic marker and fussy cut.


Challenges:

You spooked up those ghosts real well with the vellum. Bonnie, and that fence is the perfect accent. I think those dies need to come to live with me. Now to find the fence.

Fam-dam-tastic! As people are so want to say these days, your ghosts are really "COOL"! So creative and really spooky. Fabulous idea to have the vellum come over the fence.

What a beautiful spooky card with the vellum covered ghosts, and the added trees, cobwebs, and lovely yellow moon and also the fun bat and foreground fence, it looks brilliant Bonnie. x

What a great idea to layer vellum over the white ghosts! It certainly makes them more ethereal and ghostly.
