Hello and welcome to this months Blogging Friends Hop, our theme this month..... "It was a dark and stormy night......."
It was raining when I was creating this project, I was in for a dark and stormy night, but what to create? I needed to think past a blankie with a warm bevvie and wanting to curl up on the couch - of course I think of Halloween, even though we don't celebrate it like in America (I do wish we did though, it looks absolutely amazing when everyone gets into it).
I started by creating my own background with the images form Banner Year, I knew I wanted to add BOO, so then I cut 3 "coffins" in Basic Grey using a Hippo and Friends die, but they didn't look quite right - so I embossed them with the Pinewood Planks embossing folder, that's more like it, things were taking shape.
I decided to cut BOO with the Playful Alphabet dies in both Basic Black and Blackberry Bliss, off setting to create a shadow effect. After stamping the sentiment I added some Metallic Mesh ribbon between the banners, cutting an pulling at the ends to give a web effect.

Great idea using the die as coffins, I was thinking along those lines for my card, rather than coffins, I was thinking of head stones, but couldn't come up with anything, I struggled with this one.
