Look at the clouds in the background. I made a template by cutting a large scalloped shape across a piece if white cardstock. I started at the bottom of the white cardstock for the house and sponged over the template moving it around in different places using eggplant envy. Then I embossed the house from House of Haunts over the clouds with black. It really is a neat effect. The bat is punched out of black, pressed into the versamark pad, then embossed with iridescent ice. The words are from Tenny Tiny Wishes and punched out with the word window punch. I wheeled all over the pumpkin pie cardstock using the bat wheel. I used the top of a scalloped bag on the inside as a pocket to hold a piece of candy (the bags are in the new mini). There is a black brad on the front just under the house which hold down the front flap down.

House of Haunts Treat Box
This Big Shot treat box (cut out of 12x12 black) was fun to make. I cut a piece of rich razzleberry cardstock, wheeled it with the jumbo bat wheel in black, then crimped it to fit around the box. I added a black handle with razzleberry brads. I cut and corner rounded a piece of old olive cardstock, and embossed the words in black on it. I sponged around the edges in black, too. I punched a large black scallop circle and used dimensionals to attach it above the words. For the moon I embossed the tree from House of Haunts on more mustard, punched it with the large circle punch, and sponged the edges in black The shine really makes the tree pop. I filled a large cello bag with candy and tied a razzleberry ribbon around it. Now I have to put it on a locked cabinet so I don't eat the candy!

House of Haunts
This 6x6 scrapbook page is for a swap I am in. I used Eggplant Envy for the background. I also used Pumpkin pie, More Mustard, Basic Black, and Old Olive. The tree and words are from House of Haunts. I stamped them in Black Craft ink and embossed them in clear. I had to cut apart the words. I used the bat punch for the bats and drew little eyes on them using the White Gel Pen. Everything is sponged around the edges in Basic Black ink.
