Retro Halloween

Hello friends and happy fall!  Our leaves are changing to their brilliant colors, and the temperatures have definitely taken a dive.  I love the colors of fall, but I am not fond of what's coming after.  But I'll stick to the "here and now" and share this quirky card I recently made.  It follows the sketch from The Paper Players Challenge.  

I started with the giant Candy Corn Shaker die from Frantic Stamper, but I opted out of making a shaker card this time.  You can see the previous shaker card I made using this die here.  Instead, I chose to use patterned papers found in my scrap box.

I added the black cat from Elizabeth Craft Designs and a very old button die set from PTI and My Favorite Things.  The little bats are shaker elements from the Candy Corn die set.  This card kind of has a retro feel to me, maybe it's because most of the products I used today are oldies and have been discontinued for a while.  I was feeling sad that my old supplies get overlooked.  

Here's the inspiration sketch:

And you can play along here at The Paper Players

I'll also be adding this card to Two Old Bats Halloween Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!
