HDH055 - Elegantly Evil

By -
Well, kids... this didn't turn out NEARLY elegant or evil enough, but I'm posting it anyway :)  I've been busy planning & designing samples for some upcoming classes I'll be teaching at The Scrapbook Page in Shawnee, Kansas!  Yep, if you are in the Kansas City area, be sure to sign up for my October 11th Eerie Elegant card class & October 19th Halloween Waterfall Mini-Album class.  The Scrapbook Page's newsletter should be coming out soon so you can get more details... and I'll be posting a couple of pics here in the next week or so :)

Anyway, back to today's bit o' Halloweenieness :)  Super simple and no frills.


After heat embossing the image & sentiment, I sponged white ink around them.  A little Stickles adds just the right bit o' bling.

What do you think?
