Halloween Party Layout

I am not a huge Halloween fan, but I have to admit it was fun scrapping a color combo I seldom use - purple, black and orange! I started with a old sketch I designed for the Heart 2 Heart blog and added some challenge elements from various blogs. In retrospect, the only thing I don't like about this layout is the purple letters that spell party; I wish I had used a brighter color so they showed up better. But as I always say, "It's done. Time to move on!"
Recipe:
Spellbound stamp set
For Always Level 2 papers
Gypsy, Sunset, Black & Colonial White cardstock
Black, Gypsy & Slate ink
Black pigment ink
Black & Sunset markers
White gel pen (Sakura)
Clear embossing powder
Sunset baker's twine, metal tag & grosgrain ribbon
3-D foam tape
Cricut Artiste cartridge: spider web backing, party title
Cricut Artbooking cartridge: Halloween title
Cuttlebug embossing folder: Swiss Dot
Challenges: 4 Crafty Chicks Things With Wings challenge (bat and owl); Heart 2 Heart EnTWINEd challenge (I wrapped Sunset baker's twine around a picture and tied the tag to it); Use Your Stuff Circles challenge (I pulled out my old CM circle cutter to cut one photo into a circle)

    Looks great. You can always outline the word party with a journaling prn to make it pop. Thanks for sharing with us at Heart 2 Heart.

    I like this a lot! The chevron print picks up the same detail from the spider web nicely. Well designed! Thanks for showing us how at H2H!
