Trick or Treat and Happy Halloween...FUSION Card Challenge~Striped Wreath

Hello!

It's definitely Fall here...and Winter has started whispering, too. We won't mention the 's' word just yet; rather, let's turn our thoughts to fun things that Autumn brings...like Halloween!

Welcome to FUSION Card Challenge~Striped Wreath, where we have an image with alllll sorts of entry points to inspire the multitude of cards/projects you're sure to bring to the gallery! Colours, stripes, wreaths, Halloween, the textured wall background - and, of course, that wonderful sketch is an option, too!
My first card's photo has me in the Land of Grrrr! After 700 photos, I decided this was the best I could manage; that green background, in real life, is rather pretty (in a Halloween kind-of-way), as are my glitter-paper bat and cat, but what a challenge to photograph! Anyway, this is my translation of the sketch; wish it looked more spook-tacular here. It's kind of fun; a card that will likely go to one of my niece or nephew's teachers.


My second is photo-inspired (obviously *grin*) The skull isn't 'that' scary, given that the flame in his candle-eye is heart shaped. The multi-colour sentiment adds a simple pop of colour.


Please head over to the FUSION blog see the marvelous cards designed by my wonderful design team:



Looking forward to seeing your designs in the gallery!

Thank you for dropping by; your visit is both welcomed and deeply appreciated!

Super fun and festive Halloween cards, Carol! :) The silhouettes on the first one look neat. I think it looks really cool, actually. Great card design. The second one with the kinda creepy skull is great. The flame looks neat and I really like the multicolored sentiment. Terrific cards! :) No s word right now...let's enjoy Fall!

One cute and one creepy, Carol. The elements you used for the sketch are wonderful.
