I wanted to do something with ghosts and started to play around with this sketch at Splitcoaststampers. This is what I came up with. I started with old olive c/s, trimmed to fit, and used my CB square die cut for the openings in the window. I then used the CB traffic jam folder for the panels. I stamped the ghosts with white ink onto black c/s which was a larger square. I placed them the images in the windows and taped on the back. I added a roof top by cutting out a piece of black with the a tee-top and ran it through the traffic jam folder as well. I added a strip of black and scored down the middle. I cut strips for the awning. I also added a small piece of black c/s for the window frame and scored to attach. I added 2 small strips to the sides of the window. Once I had everything in place, I decided to add the googlie eyes to the ghosts for more character. I stamped 2 bats from Halloween Backgrounds onto purple c/s and sponged around the edges. I cut a strip of black c/s that would fit underneath the window pane and stamped the sentiment with white ink. I attached it with 2 ribbons and tacky tape. This was time consuming but I think it came out ok. What do you think? Have a Boo-ti-ful day!
