Random Card - Halloween Card

Good Evening Folks!! Just a card I made this evening. It's another retired stamp set. I promise to make a card using a current stamp set tomorrow. I just love this stamp set and I really wanted to use it. Too bad it's retired. I think Stampin Up should have kept this Halloween set. I don't have a current Halloween set but I'm putting in an order this week and I'll order a few of the Halloween set. I'm a bit behind but it's been difficult because so many sets were retired last year and I'm slowly trying to build up my collection.

Anyway . . .I really like the web. Don't you think the spider looks more like a mosquito? I only realized at this very moment while looking at the picture that what I thought was a mosquito is actually a spider.

To add a bit of dimension to the spider image, I added Crystal Effects to the spider's hat. Do anybody still use Crystal Effects? I use it quite often because I like the 3D effect it gives to the image.

The scallop circles were created using my Craft Robo. I only own a square scallop punch which I bought at Michaels because it was on sale, otherwise all my scallop die cuts are created by my Craft Robo. It's great because I can cut any size scalloped shape using the electronic cutting machine.

Stamp Set: Web Wishes
Ink: Basic Black, Prismacolor Markers, Sakura Souffle Opaque Pen
Paper: Black, Only Orange, Whisper White, DCWV Fall Stack

Great card, Maria! I use my Crystal Effects all the time. Mostly for putting on my bling, but I am trying to use it for 3d effects too! :0)

This is a Fabulous! I love the Cystal effects on it (I love using it too). Yup...that spider does look like a mosquito....but he sure is cute. That looks like a great stamp set too. I don't think I ever heard of the Craft Robo...sounds interesting.
