Ghostly Greetings 2? C4C#206 - CTS#48 - Curtain Call: Spooky Scene

Yes. Yes.  I've switched gears...back to Halloween mode.  I think this is my last one.  Maybe.

So, I'm playing along in 2 (*make that 3) challenges with this card. 

CAS(E) this sketch! - CTS #48

Crazy 4 Challenges - C4C #206

ETA: My friend Tracey reminded me that I can enter this card in another challenge.  Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge October 1: Spooky SceneI don't know why I didn't think of it, since I entered a card just a couple of days ago!  Here is the graphic:

Great inspiration from both challenges, right?   I got kind of cutesy with my card.  But I sure had fun with it!

Yes, more ghostly greetings!  I cut 3 little photo frames from patterned paper, then filled them with fun Halloween creatures.  I gave my bat some yellow gem eyes...the vellum ghost was lucky enough to get the wiggle eyes...and the spider has a bit of stardust clear glitter pen on his tiny eyes.
Are you making Halloween cards this year?  If so, do you make them every year?  This is my first year making more than 1 or 2.  It's a lot of fun!
Thanks for stopping in!

Ghostly Greetings! - Curtain Call Challenge

I'm sharing another Halloween card today.  Yes.  I know.  You're SO surprised.  Ha!
Once I started creating cards for this occasion, the ideas just kept rolling.  So, I rolled with it. :)

Anyway, lets get to the challenge.  I'm playing along with the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - Spooky Scene.  The inspiration graphic is so fun.  See?
I created a window card for my spooky scene.



If you look closely - or click on one of the closeup photos - you'll see that my "wall paper" patterned paper includes skulls.  Nice detail, huh?  My ghosts were stamped with versamark onto vellum, then embossed in white.  I couldn't resist adding those googly eyes.  I added a bat using some black EP.
My house siding was created by using a woodgrain impression plate, then I scored every 1/2" to resemble boards.  Two Spellbinder dies were used to create the window.

Well, as my card says...Ghostly Greetings.
