Spooky Part 1

The spooky season of Halloween has been a favourite theme for many of late, including This Thurs. Here are two ATC's I made for this theme using a range of different stamps from Inkadinkado and Little Yellow Bicycle. For this first ATC I chalked the background then stamped the skull in Versamark and embossed it in black. I then stamped the swirls around the edge and highlighted the leaves using a black glaze pen.
This second ATC was created by chalking the background, stamping the images on top and then adding black diamond stickles for a bit of glitz.

One of the reasons I have not updated the blog so regularly of late is that I was completing a design project for Scrapbook Sisters as one of their Design Team. This has now been handed over and loaded to their blog. So I will share my Spooky Book with you tomorrow.
