Silhouette Ghosts

     I'm racing the clock to get this post written and pre-scheduled so that I don't miss out on showing you my DT card for the new weekly challenge at QKR Stampede.  I live in California and our power may be shut off any minute now for an unknown length of time - hours or even days.  The power company says it's for 'fire danger prevention.'  Yeah, I know - I've never heard of that in all the years I've lived in California but a good share of the northern end of the state is already without power.

     Anyway, my card today features 2 images from our sister company, Eureka Stamps, and each one is called "Dark Ghost" (4007) and "Dark Ghost" (4002).  The sentiment is from QKR Stampede and is called "Boo" (how appropriate!)


     The two silhouette images were printed as they are and the sentiment was colored with ProMarkers.  I wanted a very CAS card so did no embellishments at all.  I did ink the edges of the card front with purple.

     Edited at midnight on Thursday - we have power right now and it looks like we'll have power during the day on Friday if the wind diminishes as predicted.  Strangely enough, there are wild fires to the east and the south of us started by downed power lines!  I guess they shut down the wrong power grids.  :-D
 
     Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie

Clean and simple - and perfect!! LOVE your Halloween card!
I saw that on the news about the power/fires, etc. and it didn't make much sense to me either - but if it can prevent fires I know that'll be good.

Don't you just love kicking out a quick CAS card?!? And crazy story about the power outage at your place and cause of the fires elsewhere. Hoping you are not affected personally by fires, and that you aren't inconvenienced terribly by the power outage!!!

A truly scary CAS card. Love how you have colored the sentiment and made the images silhouette. Great reverse to the usual expectation.
