TBD Challenge #12--Nightmare Before Christmas

WOOT!! WOOT!!! It's challenge time....Can you believe we are already on challenge #12? Where does the time go..... So this week's challenge over at The Burtonesque Doll 's Blog, we are doing Christmas in July.... Nightmare Before Christmas that is! Create a card that would fit the whole Christmas colliding with Halloween theme! And our sponsor this week is Michelle Perkett Studios. So be sure to stop over there to check out her digitals. They are just darling and fun and cute.......Enjoy!!!!!

Well I know, I didn't interpret the challenge to well. I'm sorry---I had some mental block going on where I just couldn't think of a thing to make....do you ever get like that?.......so this is what I came up with....Martha Stewart paper and fence border punch--Spellbinders embossing circle plate--Making Memories die tree and circle date chipboard (which I traced and hand cut tree out)--bat unknown--black stickles--and everything colored in with distress inks--I also used a while gel pen for the tree face then used a paint brush with water to remove some ink to make the eyes and mouth....

................................................

So don't forget to stop over and play along this week....and you be sure to check out the rest of the dolls....they have some very creative cards to show you...And hop over the Michelle Perkett Studioes to grab yourself a digi or two........Hugs from Charm City.....

    Hey Nancy! I love this card. That little bat is TDF and I love the way you inked/colored the sign. Theme, schmeme, this is an awesome H'ween card and your layout (as usual) totally rocks! (((HUGS)))
