Boo!


Hi Happy Saturday!
Stayed up last night coloring up these cute Halloween critters. What can I say 
I'm in the mood for fall.
I was inspired by Jess McAfee recent video tutorial. 
I did a light wash of water over my cardstock (background) picked up some distressed Crayons I had scribbled onto an acrylic block.

Went back and forth several times , then picked up an additional color ( let dry). Went to darkened the top portion of the background. Then I die cut my spooky trees  and hill out( i also shaded in the hill).
Embossed the sentiments , glued the trees overlapping one, hill and the rest of the cute critters and accessories. Almost forgot to mention that I  went over the trees with a white gel pen .

I hope you like it. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
