A Halloween Card

Hi everybody!
For the month of September I  have made several things that I will be showing bit by bit. I am starting off with a card I made using an image from 'Costume Party 2' by Gecko Galz. I am Guest Designer there for this month. I made a double Z-fold card, and mounted the image on a mat of turquoise paper. The side 'wings' of the card have been covered in some paper which I digitally altered to get matching colours. I used some die-cuts made for me by Diane as embellishments, and added a bow and some beads - from an old earring - to the focal image.





Have a great day you all, take care, and thanks a lot for coming by!
