Happy Halloween!

I'm back! ...not done with all my house projects yet, but I took a break long enough to wish all of you a Happy Halloween with this card:

This is a new set for me, called Autumn Harvest, and I just LOVE it! I wanted to squeeze in a quick Halloween card with it since it has the adorable Jack-O-Lantern face, but I guarantee you'll see more of it as we head into Thanksgiving!

I did a lot of cutting on this one, so it's not a good one to duplicate for a lot of people... unless, of course, you're "giving" it to hundreds of loyal blog readers, in which case one nicely photographed card will do! *giggle* My Coluzzle hasn't been used in awhile, and I immediately envisioned this Jack-O-Lantern sitting next to an oval cut-out. It would've been better if I could've stamped the sentiment straight. :)

One thing you can't see really well in the photo above is how I embossed the leaves onto the Basic Black background. I used Old Olive ink and clear powder, but it doesn't really matter because the black cardstock all but takes away any "color" you use. Here's another shot in the glare so you can see it better:

Now, before I get back to my household chores... don't forget - Tomorrow (October 31st) is the LAST DAY that you can take advantage of the Birthday promotion where several birthday stamp sets are 20% off! It is also the last day that you can order this cool Decor Elements Spider. Remember that you can place an order any time, day or night, through my Stampin' Up! Website. Just click on Shop Now in the upper right-hand corner.

I hope you all have a wonderfully safe Halloween!
