Graveyard Gala Meets From the Crypt

When I first saw the Stampin Up 2009-2010 Idea Book & Catalog, I knew I would have to have these two great Halloween Stamp sets!  They are both so much fun and very on trend.  This card was a fun one to create. 

I wanted the skull image to be faint, but visible, making it look as if the grave was haunted.  I tried using the Bordering Blue ink on he same color cardstock, however, it was too dark.  I reached for the Versamark and it was perfect and gave me the look I was after.

The ravens and headstone were cut out and popped up using Dimensionals.  You can't tell here but trust me, they were.

The vines were cut using the hobby knife and the headstone was inserted there.

Now for the rest of the dets:
