I'm not kiddin' - WHO are all these Halloween cards gonna go to?? LOL
Maybe Halloween can be the new holiday to catch up with a long-lost friend? I dunno. The one thing I have enjoyed about making all these Halloween cards is just getting creative, trying new things, new colors together, just having fun!
So I wanted to try something and it didn't come out quite like I wanted it, but in the end, I'm pleased. When I use an embossing folder, I usually run it through the Big Shot twice - just to be sure (I might be just a tad OCD - heh) - and so I ran a piece of Copper Metallic Glossy through twice and I cracked some of the copper finish. I should have done a coated paper like this just once. HOWEVER!! - - I sort of like the cracked look on this because it goes with the whole creepy, broken down haunted house look, don't you think? I've got a piece of Cosmic Orange on here to show off my sentiment which is stamped on to a piece of White Felt Grandee. My base is Epic Black Classic Columns but now that I think about it, I could have gone with just like a Black Licorice Pop Tones because I didn't really need the texture there - but hey, more is more is a good thing! And yes, I'm still workin' that Inkadinkado stamp!

This is your best Halloween card yet! That copper paper w/the haunted house is super cool.
OH, that haunted house impression on the copper is sooo cool! I'm off to leave a post about Digiments! I have been gone all day!!!
That is really cool in the copper - great idea!
I like that coppery haunted house. It is very creepy indeed! And the big blue button is awesome.
