As I was working on some projects, I came across this sketch from Caardvarks. It was from the Sktechfest they had last week. While I missed the opportunity to play along with the sktchfest, as it is over now, I thought I'd still like to play along with the great sketches! So, here is the sketch I used for my card.

I had a lot of fun with the sketch and am happy with the results. I did take a little creative liberty with the sketch and move the sentiment up a little...but that is the joy of a sketch!

So, I started with a pumpkin pie card base. I layered some basic black and some night and day paper onto my card base. I used my circle scissor cutter and made a basic black circle and attached it to the left side of my card and trimed the excess off.
I used my flower layers die and the Big Shot to create my flowers. Two of them are the Night and Day paper and then the harringbone one is actually fabric. I gave all my flowers their centers, a pumpkin brad, large black grommet, and pumpkin rhinestone brad; and then attached them to my card. The smallest flower is added with dimensionals.
For my sentiment, I used some retired SU halloween rubons. My large oval punch punched the pumpkin paper out, then I made a nice home for it with my scallop oval and black cardstock. I added the sentiment to the card with dimensionals also.
My last addition to the card was the white spider rubons...aren't the a great touch!? They are the same retired halloween rubons from SU.
I know just who this card will give a fun scare to this Halloween....I can't wait to get it in the mail! Thanks so much for stopping by! Make it a great one!

Totally charming and totally YOU! I love the combination of patterned paper and shapes. The different center on each flower is very cool. Hugs, Mary
