I'm getting close to the end of my Halloween cards, thank goodness, and will have to mail some of them really soon since they are going overseas to Japan. The others can wait until after the move and by that time, some of them won't even have to be mailed. I can hand-deliver them to the grandkids who already live in my soon-to-be new city. After all, being close to family is the whole reason for this move. :-D
On this card, I used an image from Lacy Sunshine, "Candi Corn Sticky Wings", and I think she's just adorable! The theme for their challenge is "Stitching, real or faux."
The image is colored with ProMarkers and I used glitter gel ink on her wings. The embossing folder is by Cuttlebug but I don't remember the name of it. I've had it at least 2 years and this is the first time I've used it (hanging head in shame.) Papers came from my 12 x 12 scrapbooking papers and they just really worked for that color combo. The sparkly bats were in my stash from last year and the bows are some of those I sewed up myself.

The sketch came from The Outlawz
and the colors from the challenge at Color Throwdown.
