I decided to make an early Halloween card and since scenes are one of my favorite things to do, I made a graveyard scene using only Thirdcoast Rubber Stamps (24). They have wonderful, fun stamps for scene building, especially Halloween.
This card is made mostly by masking using Versamarker and clear embossing powder to do the masking. I also used a Stamp-a-ma-Jig for most of it, with the exception of four stamps in the front that I stamped separately, did some fussy cutting on and popped up with dimensionals. I drew in some grass and spider webs. Everything except the sky is colored with Copics after stamping with Memento Tuxedo Black. The sky is sponged using SU ink and then spritzed with SU markers.
I matted the scene first on Bo Bunny Press 12" Pumpkin DP, then black cardstock. The finished card measures 6" X 8".

I had to chuckle when I read Cindy H's comment... I didn't want to give it back when you let me hold it yesterday. It truly is an amazing piece of artwork... your talent blows me away, and I'm so glad I get to see your creations IRL. Just don't close your eyes when I have your creations in my hand. LOL
