| I used the inspiration photo by trying to achieve the 'feel' of an ominous spooky environment. |

| The whites of her eyes is very creepy and seem to glow against the red spooky night. I layered up all the Distress red inks I had on hand then added some gray and black for the clouds. |
 |
| Look closely at the sentiment. 'Hello Sweet Friend'. Pretty creepy if you ask me. I first saw this two toned sentiment technique over at Make It Monday I just modified it a bit but the idea is the same. |

Creative with Stamps: Sentiment
CASology: Week 219- Spooky
This sentiment was actually my daughter's idea! She loved the 'sweet friend' sentiment but it couldn't stand alone. She recommended to have another sentiment across the 'sweet friend'. A lightbulb went off in my head. And the result is what you see here. I wanted the 'hello' die cut to blend into its surroundings and (hopefully) wouldn't be discovered until later. I guess I wanted it to hide until you found it. But first your attention goes to those creepy eyes peering out at you from well.... somewhere. I just love this card and will probably remain in my collection for a time.
Well that should do it for me. I hope you have a great day and thank you so much for stopping by my little byte of the internet. I do hope you will join us at Make My Monday. It should be fun! Until then take care and happy crafting.
All the best,
Shawna
