A Spooky Season

Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop!  This week we are all about HALLOWEEN CARDS!



SPARKLY SEASON was a set on my radar right away since it features more than one holiday.  I love sets like this that are multi-purpose!  It also comes as a bundle with the coordinating SEASONAL FRAME THINLITS which makes this a must have in my book!



Is this jack-o-lantern cute or what!  I used the chevron circle and face from the stamp set and added in the "spooky" from the thinlits.  I LOVE having words to die cut....so fun to use!



There are lots of little details that come together to make this card work.  Softly sponged stars with a decorative mask was my first step.  Then I layered on Happy Haunting washi tape before adding the jack-o-lantern and sentiment.  I even dressed up the hat that I pulled from Howl-o-ween Treat.  I love how it's a perfect fit!
