ttt #133

Today's/Yesterday's card actually is my contribution towards the Tic Tac Toe Challenge #133.   
I chose middle row, across: Black/Stripes/Wreath.




 





I tried to step outside the box with using the spider web as the "wreath" and bringing in some fun other elements.  I used my new stamp set: Frightfully Cute along with the Frightful Dies   I started with the Star-Crossed Embossing folder and basic white cardstock.  
Paper & Coloring: I used the striped paper from the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper, cutting 2 strips. A 3rd piece, cute skeletons, was cut from the flip side of this DSP!  One striped strip is left as is, the other was colored in using a Blending Brush and Gorgeous Grape Stampin' Pad.  I used that same brush and ink pad to add some color to the top left & side of the white panel.  Two spiders were stamped in Basic Black.
Cutting:  The spider web was cut from Silver Foil Paper from my stash.  The sentiment was cut using the die from Frightful Dies in black and then in Pumpkin Pie.  The spiders were fussy-cut leaving a web on one and removing the web on the other.
Embellishments: The twine bow was made using a Black Blends Marker and twine from my stash.  The Black dots are from last year's stash that I got on clearance as I knew I would always be able to use them.  Always check out the Clearance Rack!
