CC658 Graveyard Gate
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: Kathy LeDonne

 This week's colors are just made for a spooky Halloween card which works out perfectly since dessert is to make just such a card. I started this before my doctor's appointment today and was not really thrilled with how it was turning out and I spent the ride over to the doctor's thinking about a different stamp set and what I might make instead. I came home and almost went into the basement where my holiday stamps are stored to find one of those sets. But I went into my stamp room instead and saw what I had done so far and thought - wow, that could be good if I can figure out how to finish it. So I masked my moon and hills and sponged the sky. I stamped bats and gravestones, using my MISTI to get everything really dark. I added shadows and clouds and a greeting. I took a white colored pencil and added some highlights to everything. This is a borrowed idea from Michelle Zindorf, but I used different colors and a different layout. Now I can't wait to see what everyone else does!

Kathy! This card is spectacular! Oh, my goodness! I love the way you used the colors. The scene is so scary and fun, all at the same time! The shading on the hills and the sky--just wow!

Oh my gosh, this is fabulous! The dimension and detail on your scene is so beautifully done, the tombstone's shadows are wonderful and so realistic.
