I'm happy to be Guest DT again for today's Color Challenge.
Diane wants us to use Soft Succulent, Rich Razzleberry and Evening Evergreen.
With Nature as Dessert - I used an Acorns embossing folder for my background. That's nature right?!
My skull is Spencer - a colorize thinlits die from Tim Holtz. I used Ocean tides and Pine Feathers paper and sponged the edges of the skull with Seedless Preserves.
I added enamel dots in the two greens and a Halloween Label Sticker for the sentiment. Spencer is up on foam dots and has black enamel dots for eyes!
I also splattered over the background with a black POSCA pen.

I am giggling, Julia, because those green enamel dots look to me like bubbles coming up from a witch's cauldron--perfect to go with the skull, and very spooky! The acorn embossing folder gets you dessert, too!

Spencer looks pretty creepy to me, Julia, but that's the look you wanted, right! Love your embossed bg panel! I never would have thought about a Halloween card, but you did~
