Shake Rattle and Roll

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

I have another Halloween card to share with you today.


We used these stamps in the last class and it was fun hearing the giggles.

The skeletons were stamped and heat embossed with clear powder. 

Blending brushes and ink did the background and a white gel pen took care of their eyes.

The sentiment was centered on their cards but this one got off center for some
reason, so I added a musical note that was included in the set.

The bats were stamped but not embossed.  I got a smudge on the background
so I stamped two more bats to cover that up.

I didn't take a picture of the inside, but it says "Do the Halloween BOO-gie.
I love the sentiments in this set as much as the dancing skeletons!

Here's the card we did in class...
It has a spider web embossed in the background.



Challenges:
Color Hues #96 - Purple and Orange

Both are fab BOO lous, Bonnie! I love the blending and colors in today's card - and the off-centered sentiment was a bit of kismet, I think!

Those dancing skeletons are so much fun, Bonnie. I don't know which sentiment makes me giggle more - the outside or inside one.

You are indeed the Queen of Halloween! Fabulously fun and creative. When I saw the title of your card, I instantly started singing.
Was that Jerry Lee Lewis? Maybe not but it was popular in the late 50's or early 60's. It's good to know I can remember something!

This dancing skeletons are really fun Bonnie, and I love the purple and orange you ink blend on the background, and the spider and web look great on the top, and the bats and fun sentiment finish it perfectly. x

This is a fantastic Halloween card, Bonnie. I love those skeletons dancing, I love the song, and I love how you covered up your Boo Boos. (Sorry, I couldn't let that one go by).
