Halloween colours over at Flutter By Wednesday!

It's a new challenge over at Flutter By Wednesday and we are challenging you to use colours of Halloween!  So get your black, orange, purple and greens out!  Don't forget to use a butterfly, fairy or angel on your project too!  Here is my make spooky make for this week...

 

I used Betty from Simply Betty Stamps and matched her up with My Minds Eye Mischevious papers with more distressing, inking andlickle, ickle purple butterflies!  You can get the sentiment from one of Pollycrafts' Tuesday Treats (go on, treat yourself here - it's FREE!).

And we can also now announce that we loved last week's special guest designer so much that we asked her (begged her!) to stay!  So a big big welcome to the talented and ever lovely Amanda of Cards, Cats and Copics!  You can see her gorgeous creation and the rest of the DT on the main challenge blog here!




I am entering this card into the following challenges:
