Embossed ghosts and leaves for three challenges

 I've had a design running through my head for awhile now and just  finally got the time to take it from my head and make it a reality.  When I saw the challenges for this week, I knew I had to make this card with more than one design.  So, I chose to use the retired seasonal masks with the embossing paste to create ghosts for one card and leaves for the other.  Did you know ghosts and fall leaves are the same shape?




 They do require different coloring techniques.  Both started out as white embossing paste with the seasonal masks.  Then, I added eyes with a Basic Black marker for the ghosts.  I wondered if the baby wipe technique would work to add  color to the embossed shapes in fall colors.  I was so excited when it did.

My Tic Tac Toe used autumn colors, dimension, and rounded corners.

  3. Angel I saw your card when I linked my own entry up in the Fab Friday challenge gallery and had to pop over to say that I think your use of the stencil to create those embossed ghosts is absolutely inspired - so clever! And I got to see your gorgeous Autumn leaves too - a pair of great cards.
