Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #118

Hi Everyone,

Its challenge time at Addicted to Stamps and More the theme is HOLIDAY for the next two weeks!

I could not resist and choose Halloween - my favorite holiday and its coming up real soon, eeeeek......!


Real scary this card, isn't it? I got his cool stamp at the Stamp Expo here in New Jersey in September - I had a lot of fun there, as you can imagine....That fabulous stamp is from Rubbernecker
I colored it with Copics and fuzzy cut it. The grey panel I embossed with a Tim Holtz embossing folder and sponged it. "Fitted" it into the monster. Lastly i did not like a totally white background, so I sponged around with lime green ink. Lastly I added glossy accents to the fingernails and teeth. Scary, huh....




Now,

our sponsor for the challenge is:

I hope you come and play with us at ATSM and leave some love on the DT girls blogs - after all they have some fabulous inspiration for you!

I am also playing with this card in The Male Room - Halloween
and with AAA cards - Halloween

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
