Happy Halloween

Hi there, can't believe how fast the weeks are flying in now and the weather is getting that bit colder! I've not been too well, the past week or so, managed to pick up another virus...chest infection, blocked sinuses, headache, sore throat, feel so drained! Not good on top of my fibro!! Anyways I hopefully will be on the mend soon!!

I'm here to share with you my inspiration for our new challenge that has started over at Digi Doodle Studios. Our theme for the month is either Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness or Halloween...Here, I have combined both, the image I have used is called Arabella Grimm, she's fab!!



On a 7x7 card blank, I matt and layered black silk satin card and pink patterned paper, along with black lace ribbon border. The image, I printed on to watercolour card, coloured then added sentiment and two web images. After die cutting with circle faux stitch die, I attached die cut spiders web behind. To decorate, I added die cut flower, fern branches, bats, spider and banner, finishing with gems and Peel Offs
