Happy Halloween

I'm laughing at myself right now.  I needed to make a Halloween card for a Guest Design spot I'm doing this month.  So I got busy and made this cute little Halloween card only to realize that I missed the whole point of this particular challenge blog.  It was supposed to include die-cuts and I didn't actually die cut anything on this card.  While some of the things I used are actual die-cuts, I didn't cut them, so I don't think this card counts.  I figured that I'd just share this one for fun and start over on what I need to get done for that GD spot.  LOL

I used a mish mash of patterned paper scraps that were laying around on my craft table.  I inked them and machine stitched them together.  You can't even see the orange polka dot patterned paper I used on the bottom half of the card.  I added a small white doily that I inked with Concord Tim Holtz Oxide Ink.

I tied in some black seam binding, solid purple and solid orange baker's twine, some double head stamens, and I topped that with a Jolee's glittery spider.  The cat and pumpkin are chipboard images from Echo Park and the Happy Halloween die-cut is from that same collection.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I'll be sharing this fun Halloween card in the following challenges where I enjoy playing along.  I hope you're enjoying some challenges this week as well.  Happy crafting.
