One More Witch

     I keep telling myself I'm done with Halloween cards and then I find one more stamp or one more sentiment I just have to use... need I say more?  At least this time, I combined the image and the sentiment onto one last Halloween card.  Both of these came from a set by Sparkle n Sprinkle and I'm entering their monthly challenge with it.


     This is a single layer card and I painted the background with watercolors.  Both the image and the sentiment are done with black EP.  Fast, clean and simple.  Less than 15 minutes, including time for the watercolor to dry since I used my heat gun and then ironed it flat before doing the embossing.

     OK, I think this may be my last Halloween card but no promises if I see another image which calls out to me or threatens me with the flying monkeys.  :-D  Happy Stamping.  NanaConnie
