Once again my phone camera isn't doing this card justice, but it's good enough.
I really enjoy using funky colors for these types of cards and these leftover bits I found in my stash really give me room to play.
I fell a little behind with posting cards these last few days/week thanks to an unexpected colonoscopy procedure. So fun.
Hopefully I'm done with all that and back on my cardmaking game.
Today's card feels surprisingly whimsical despite the large dark skull gracing the front of it.
Once again, I got to use some embossing powder which I think looks pretty cool with the other raised and textured elements in the design. I'm using up scraps and still creating pretty pieces that I'm very proud of. So far this October Halloween countdown has been very productive!

The countdown continues with this funky Halloween card! It's mostly all made of scraps and other pieces I've had sitting around for far too long.
I'm trying to experiment more with color and try to branch out of the traditional Halloween colors for some of these. It's mostly an excuse for me to keep from going completely orange and black insane under the guise of creativity.

This Halloween card was really exciting for me to make because it's the first time in a long time that I've broken out the embossing powder. I forgot how much I love watching it gild itself under the heat gun.
I started out by just cutting the background triangles out of some of my Halloween paper, then the rest just unfolded from there. The scissors I used for all of my cutting were also old ones that my mom used to use way back when our family first got hit with the scrapbooking bug. Between them and the embossing powder I really felt transported back to that time.
