TRR #64 - Eerie Elegance

Hi all, I have a card today for the new challenge over at The Ribbon Reel Challenge Blog. This fortnight, Jeanne is our host with this fabulous inspiration picture:


So, using the colours in the picture, we would like to see you use some ribbon with an 'Eeerie elegance' theme!

I have used a sweet image by Waltzingmouse Stamps for my card, Cicely at Halloween, coloured with Promarkers.


I cut her out using Spellbinders, and layered onto a frame also cut using Spellbinders. Between the image and the frame I layered some Black Jute Mesh. from The Ribbon Reel shop.


On the card base I stamped some bats and Halloween lanterns also from WMS, using the Gracie At Halloween set.


I added a Lilac silk bow, wrapped with Purple Button Twine, also from TRR shop, then topped with a sparkly button from stash.

I would like to enter this into this week's Waltzingmouse Fanatics Challenge, which has a Halloween theme.

Thanks for stopping by,

Pauline
