Easy Halloween Frankenstein Card

Update (10/13/16) I was really excited this morning to see that this card and my other Kitty Halloween card were chosen as the TOP SPOT over at the Art Impressions blog for the Perfect Pair Challenge.  Thank you so much!



I do not make a lot of Halloween cards, but when I do, I tend toward the cuter side.  This little stamp set I just picked up is really fun.  

(Click on photos to enlarge.)

I had a scrap of cardstock that I had sprayed with Heidi Swapp sprays in gold, green and blue.  I thought that would make a good skin tone for Frankenstein.  Then I just used a sketch to make a quick card.  I think it looks simple, but effective. The green panel was mint green and I sponged lime green around the edges.


Supplies: Art Impressions by Hampton Art Fright Night stamp and die set, Archival Ink, Versafine Ink (for sentiment), Distress ink Twisted Citron, Heidi Swapp Color Shine sprays, American Crafts Pumpkin Patch paper pad, circle die

I would love to participate in the following challenges:
