Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Vicki has chosen Halloween colours as the theme.
Of course, you can always play along with our anything goes birthday option too!
Our guest and my team mates have some wonderful cards to inspire you, so hope you can join us in the gallery.
We don't celebrate Halloween much here, so I thought I'd just go with purple orange and green for some florals!
I diecut the floral spray from some designer paper and layered it up for dimension.
The sparkly green is a new toy - one of the new Halloween mica sprays! Love the shimmer, (which looks better in real life.) Added some stickles to the orange centres for more sparkle.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
AAA Birthday, one of my favourite techniques is diecutting!
Supplies:
Memory Box sketch flower spray die; Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die; Craft Consortium dp Ink drops rose; Distress mica stain in wicked elixir; sentiment sticker and diamond stickles.
Thanks for visiting,
