Hello everyone,
Time for another great challenge at For Fun Challenges this week. The challenge is to create a Halloween card but the twist is to use no orange on your card. I used free digital stamps for my card. The “Witch Feet” image is from Bugaboo Stamps and the sentiment “Best Witches Hat” from Robin’s Artful Musings. The image was coloured with black, lime green and purple Tombow pens and I added silver Stickles and purple gemstones on the shoe buckles and hat for a little bit of bling. For a sparkle in the eye I also added Silver Stickles to the little spiders. I must say I like the fashionable shoes and stockings, maybe the fashion gurus will describe it as a fashion disaster!
I entered my card for the following challenges:
- Paper Playtime Challenge #22 – Halloween
- 2 Sisters Challenge #10 – Anything Goes
- Ellephantastic Cards and Crafts Challenge #17 – Halloween
- Ooh La La Challenge #65 – Scary Stuff
- Crazy4Challenges C4C60 – Halloween
I used the following to create the card:
- Bugaboo Stamps freebie “Witch feet”
- Robin’s Artful Musings freebie “Best Witches Hat”
- Black, lime green and purple cardstock
- Silver mesh
- Purple gemstones
- Spider confetti
- Silver Stickles
- Black organza ribbon
- Tombow pens for colouring
- Tim Holtz Alterations Texture Fades “Cracked” for background
Hope to see your Halloween card at For Fun Challenges this week. Enjoy the rest of the week and happy crafting.
Greetings from South Africa,

Hi Amelia! This is gorgeous…. I love the purple and green (I used to wear this striking combination in the 80s as a teenager!) I love the image you used – and the way you dressed it with the ribbon really pops – very unusual!
hugs,
Pauline
