Ghost Spooked - Boo!

Hello, everyone.  I decided this month to get an early start on the monthly challenges, especially the progressive ones, since I missed out on a couple of great challenges in September because I ran out of time.  So today's card is for a progressive challenge at SK Digis by Sonia Kertzmus.  Anyone who played along last month received this cute, spooky ghost to use for this month's challenge (thank you, Sonia).  There's also a sketch challenge going on at SK Digis (see sketch below), which I used for my card.


I started with a white card base and covered it with black cardstock.  Next I added four panels of digi paper according to the sketch.  I coloured the digi with pencils, fussy-cut, and affixed to the card with foam tape.  For the sentiment, I used a rubber stamp and fussy cut.  I embellished with a metal clip tied with ribbon, and two polka-dot buttons.  Here are the supplies used:
  • Digi stampSK Digis by Sonia Kertzmus (thank you for this freebie)
  • Digi papersMygrafico (thank you for the freebie papers)
  • Stamp:  Sentiment (Anita's)
  • Ink:  Versafine Onyx Black
  • Coloured pencils:  Prismacolor
  • Cardstock:  Recollections, Staples
  • Ribbon:  Offray
  • Accents:  Buttons, metal clip (Oriental Trading Co.)

Your ghost image is so cute that I don't think I'd be too afraid of him should or choose to jump out at me crying 'Boo' ...... hmmm, on second thoughts, graveyard, Halloween - Anyway, I love him and also that you have kept him so totally the focal point of your card. Your cacking papers are very attractive ans is your subtle embellishing. Good luck in our challenge this week. Ingrid xx (OSAAT Team)

I was just thinking I can't be frightened by this one 'cos it is just toooooo cute and I saw that this is what my teamie Ingrid had written - so great minds eh?? I just love him though, and if I thought all ghosties looked like him I would hope to meet many! lol I love your layout and colours, everything is gorgeous. Oh and I think the little clip plus ribbon is a brilliant idea.
