Welcome to Unity's Friends with Flair blog hop! Check the Unity Stamp Co. blog for hop details and a full list of today's participants.
Today I'm sharing a one-layer Halloween card that I made using the chandelier from the Regal Greetings set from {ippity} by Unity.
I shabbied this up with some black ink sponged around the edges for a creepy Victorian look and drew in a spider web background. 'Cuz you know no one (with any substance, at least {wink}) has been around to dust those chandeliers in that old haunted house for quite some time! Anyway, I drew the web with a Sakura Glaze pen from my blogging buddy Jessi (thanks, friend!), dusted it with clear embossing powder, and heat embossed it for extra dimension.
A three-dimensional "Spooky" sticker from Anna Griffin and some black crochet string was all I needed to finish off this easy OLC!
I'm entering this Spooky creation in these challenges:
- All Things Unity challenge to make a one-layer card,
- {ippity} challenge to tie it up with twine, ribbon, or string on your project,
- Simon Says Stamp Challenge : ANYTHING GOES,
- Paper Sundaes Challenge: ANYTHING GOES
Thanks for stopping by!

Love how you made your Halloween card in an artistic, rather than cute style! Great use of those chandeliers!
LOVE this shabby card, emily!! happy wcmd!
Another GREAT halloween card! Love that spider web and sure do appreciate you telling HOW you created it. Never would have thought to emboss my glaze pens marks. Thank you!
Wow! I love that spider web and teh spooky chandeliers!
That web! I have GOT to try that - I'm always scared to get too fancy with the glaze pens, since my main talent with them is smearing everything everywhere.
I never would have pictured the chandeliers as a Halloween accessory, but you've rocked it. They're perfect!
THIS is my FAV of all times Halloween card! LOVE the cobweb and the chandeliers! FAB card, Emily!
Great card - love the spider web you drew on!! and those chandeliers have never looked spookier!!
This is AMAZING, Emily! I love your clear embossed and hand-drawn spider web to those chandeliers. It has a gorgeous effect! And am I really that far behind in my blog surfing? Yikes!
