Hi and welcome to my blog! First I want to say how thrilled I am to have been chosen to be on the Just For Fun design team! I have had so much fun playing with my new stamps. I can't believe that Halloween will be here soon. Many of the stores have had Halloween items out since July! I have made a Halloween card using two of the new Just For Fun stamps.
I colored the scarecrow using my Zig watercolor pens, fussy cut the image and pop dotted it to the card. I stamped the fence using versa mark ink and added black embossing powder to make it look like wrought iron. I added three confetti bats flying across the "moon."
I had a fun time using my new small round geli plate to make the background. I patted distress ink pads in yellow, blue, purple and black directly onto the geli plate. I spritzed the inks with water and placed the card stock on top and pressed gently with my hand. This gave a moon like image to the card! I then went back in and sponged black ink around the "moon."
This month we have a new inspiration challenge on the Just For Fun blog. We would love to have you enter the challenge and you will even be eligible for a prize! Click here to check it out.

Such a neat card! I really like the background you got with the circle gelli plate. Also, the scarecrow is perfectly placed in between that cool spooky fence. Great inspiration card! TFS!
