Crafty Critters Challenge #10

I got my challenge card done!
My blog group on SCS had a challenge. Here's the requirements:

1. Use card sketch #246 from SCS.
2. Use the color purple.
3. Make it Fall themed.
4. Use at least 1 embellishment.


This card is 6.25 x 3.5 -- it fits in a regular size mailing envelope (not the long one).
I used SU! Only Orange c/s as my base. The striped paper and green patterned paper are from the DCWV Fall stack. The purple strip is SU! Rich Razzleberry c/s and I used the ticket punch on 2 corners (This matching well in real life. It seems too dark in the pic). Then I used my new little stamp from SU!. He's stamped with Basic black ink. Isn't he the cutest? I backed it with 2 more circles and put it on with dimentionals. I used clear buttons from SU! with coordinating thread in them. I used a piece of black toile fabric and bunched it up behind the image. Then while the glue on the fabric was still wet, I dotted the ghost's eyes and mouth with the 2 way glue pen and sprinkled dazzling diamonds on the fabric and the ghost. His eyes and mouth look white in the pic but they're really sparkly.
I'll be making goody bags for my son and daughter's classmates using this cute little stamp too. I'll be sure and post them when I get them done.
Until next time...
Blessings...
