Two day Challenge!!

Well almost! Ha Ha! Kathy, our glorious leader at Peachy Keen, has come up with the idea of a super quick Halloween challenge.
You have until midnight tomorrow night (CST)!

 THE CHALLENGE:
Create a card
• Use a haunted house somehow in your card
• You will need a bat
• A ghost
• Include a Halloween greeting
• you can use die cuts, stamps, punches, images on papers... etc.. anything goes!

Here's what I came up with............


The haunted house was a real challenge as I don't have a stamp of one. So off trawling the web for an image I could use. I travelled that far and wide on Google Images, I haven't a clue where I eventually got this from.
Get it I did though and re-sized it, printed it out, cut round it, cut the windows out and added some lines of Sakura sparkly pen for definition.
I used my gorgeous little PK-M04 Ghost and the larger, Ghost, Bat, Pumpkins and 'Boo' are all stamps from the set  PK-612 Dress Me Ghost.
Coloured with Copics and a touch of purple glitter to highlight the 'Boo'.
The 'Sun/Moon' is a circle Nestability cut out with orange card and shaded with Copics.

Okay Dokay!!!
There's no time to linger. Make your project, hop on over to Peachy Keen and submit your entry via Mr' Linky to be in with the chance of a fabulous prize! (The more entries, the bigger the prize)!!!
The winner will be announced on Tuesday when our next fortnightly challenge takes place. 
While you're there, take a look at the other DT members fabulous cards. You'll love 'em!

I hope you can join us for this frantic and fun challenge! I look forward to seeing your creations. Good luck!

Oh, Viv, I love your little ghosties, they are adorable. I really like the green shading, not a color I would have chosen but it is absolutely perfect. Thanks for the inspiration.
