I inked up the Illusions Background Stamp, heat embossed then using Distress Oxides in Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves, Wilted Violet and Chipped Sapphire with just a touch of black soot.

I die cut the Bats and Bubbles Border Die from a panel of white card and popped a strip of black behind to help the bats stand out.  I die cut the Happy Halloween Word Die Set and adhered in place.

I finished off with some black die cut bats, twine, a charm and some sequins.
