Halloween Set of Cards!

Hello y'all!

I am so excited to be one of the newest DT member's here at Dies R Us! 

Today, I am sharing a card set I made for Halloween. They were quick to put together, but have such a cool effect. I personally love creating backgrounds with the Memento Inks because you can create so many different scenes!

My first step was to cut out a circle to use it as a mask to create the moon!

I created my scene with the colors from light to dark - Sweet Plum, Grape Jelly, Elderberry, Paris Dusk, London Fog, Tuxedo Black - 

My next step was to use my Cut 'n' Boss to cut out all my different dies. Once those were cut, I assembled it to the card and placed the witch over the moon. I used some scrap yellow cardstock to place behind the pumpkins and the haunted house - just to give it a little PIZAZZ! 

 I run an LA Based Fashion Company and have a few girls with subscriptions boxes! These were the cards I created to put in their subscription boxes this month! The little ghosts were actually part of a Halloween Party Paper Cut out set.

I have worked with quite a few of their images in the past, and thought this would be a fun opportunity, so I delightfully accepted!

I made a project for their "New Stuff" Challenge on January 5th, which is below:
