Just playin' around

My 1st Halloween card of the year. I had a little time this morning to play around with one of my new SU sets -- Autumn Apparitions. What a fun set!!
I also had fun playing with my punches. I used the Word Window punch and the 1-3/8 Circle punch to create the fence & moon. First I punched out the Circle and placed it onto the CS, sponged Groovy Guava & Pumpkin Pie around the moon, then Basic Black over the rest of the sky. Then I stippled Wild Wasabi along the bottom of the card front. I took off the circle punch & then stamped the bats & sentiment. When I put the moon back on I adhered it just slightly down from the stipple circle, this left a little sliver of Apricot Appeal. For the fence I used the Word Window punch, sponged the edges & outlined with the marker. Lastly I added the cat & pumpkins & some stickles. For the small pumpkin & the cat I used popdots.
