Happy Halloween, y'all!
What an interesting site! I chose Camellia Cup for my inspiration. I thought the black/white would make a good Halloween card.
This card is pretty quick but I think the high contrast black and white gives it some punch. The Spooky Tree was white embossed on black card stock and the moon only was black embossed on white card stock. I cut the moon out and attached over the base image. After I cut it out with a rectangle die, I edged it with a white marker and attached it to a larger piece of black.
The greeting was stamped and die cut and fancy die cuts added to the ends. The white background was edged with a black marker and some score lines added before attaching to a 4.25 x 5.5 (A2) white card. A few punched bats were added.
Have a Happy and safe (yet spooky) Halloween! Our little goblins are going to get wet here. Boo!

Julie I love how you embossed these images and created such a wonderful Halloween scene!! It is a very wet Halloween here too, hoping it will stop for a while so they can get out without being soaked! Happy Halloween!!

Black and white is always so elegant. I never would have thought to make a Halloween card in just these colors, but Julie, it REALLY works! I love this card!!
