Sophisticated spooking!

Good morning lovelies! I do hope you're well! We're all good although I'm feeling very tired of late - must be overdoing it lol!!!!!

Today I've got a card to show you that I made using the fabulous stamp that I won from the Penny Black at Allsorts challenge last month - such a stylish background stamp I'm sure it will get lots of use. Thankyou so much! Today- its the main feature of my sophisticated Halloween card....what do you think?


I've used versamark on the stamp then added metallic lilac wow powders and heat set - its beautiful - love it to bits that colour. The bow was then added and the TH spiders and Happy Halloween. A very different card for me but I'm liking it very much!
