Simple, Smart & Sophisticated gone Goth...

Such a dreary icky day out... clouds, rain... perfect for an all black & white card!

And this one is a super quick one... a premade #10 gatefold card from DCWV makes it even easier :)

I don't know if I'll ever get tired of this retired stamp set from TAC... the skulls are so awesome.  I think this would make a very cool  Halloween party invite... very grown-up, but still fun.


Stamps:  Forever Family (TAC), Punk Princess (retired TAC), unknown sentiment

Paper:  DCWV card base, White UltraSmooth cs (TAC)

Ink:  Noir Palette, Moonlight White Brilliance


Other:  Tim Holtz Mini- Attacher, misc. wired ribbon

What do you think?

Well, well, well, look who's opening the dungeon door... Time for some air in here! That's right, the Minions (well most of us anyway) have returned for a little play in the dungeon. We really missed each other's company, and the daring souls who liked to drop by every now and again. While we have all gone in opposite directions since the dungeon door  slammed shut a while back, we have regrouped for a bit  to share in our fondness for the dark and weirdness of our beloved Haunted Design House.  First up, we have our esteemed  Sultana of the Sinister Black Dragon The Fang-tasmogorical  Fiona Contagion of Corrosion Croms Agent of the Abominable Andrea Maniacal Mother of Mayhem Monique Cadaverous Concoctor of Chaos Creepy Glowbugg  Devilishly Deviant  Donna Spreader of Sickness Susan Thanks so much for dropping by our dungeon today.
