Color Hues Challenge #143 - Orange & Black - Halloween Ghost and Mansion (Scrapbook and Cards Today - Halloween Wishes Kit)

Hello,

Mid-October and time for Colour Hues Challenge #143 where our hostess,Tracey, has selected hues of Orange and Black as inspiration for the next two weeks. Definitely a combination that speaks to the time of year - Fall and Halloween - and beyond. 

We're delighted to have Annette joining us as our Guest Designer.

Once again, I'm playing with my favourite dies from the Halloween Wishes kit created by Scrapbook and Cards Today. I've created a 'bridge' style base (I think that's the name) for my little bespectacled, ready-to-party ghost; essentially, the top/bottom of the card are separated from one another, then rejoined by the center focal panel. 

Inside, you'll find a spooky mansion and stars (also from the kit), along with a sentiment strip from an old Doodlebug paper pad.



Please visit the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from our guest and my talented teammates.
Looking forward to a gallery filled to bursting with your Orange and Black creations.
Thank you for dropping by!

Carol, your card is so, so fun! I love that you can see the stars from the inside on either side of the square holding that darling ghost and find the fabulous scary mansion on the inside. What a great design and terrific Halloween card!
