The Seize the Birthday challenge team is finishing off the month of October with a color challenge. More specifically, a Halloween color challenge. I opted for the traditional orange and black, even including a pumpkin in my birthday design.
My card went together really easily. After die cutting the pumpkin and leaves from colored cardstocks I edged them a bit with Distress Oxide ink. The black background was created with the use of a plaid embossing folder. I stamped the sentiment to a slim tag and tied it up with purple twine. A few gems finished it off.
Supplies:
Spellbinders - Large Die of the Month Oct 2019
Spellbinders - Swallowtail Tag dies
Fun Stampers Journey - Pretty Plaid embossing folder
Clearly Besotted - Tiny Type stamp set
I invite you to visit our blog for more holiday inspiration. We'd love to see your card in our gallery. Remember, or toppings are always optional but remember to make it a birthday card.
As always, thanks so much for spending a bit of your day with me!

ReplyDeleteThose die cuts pop against the textured back panel!
ReplyDeleteI am loving that plaid embossing folder in black! A great way to make that pumpkin stand out and it is gorgeous too.
ReplyDeletePerfect card for the topping, Jules. I think the black was a good substitute for the Purple that you adore. LOL
ReplyDeleteLove your pumpkin collage in the corner of your embossed background. Looks great on the black.
ReplyDeleteI did have orange and black in my mind initially, but then changed my mind to use the other colors. I love the look of this card - the embossed black looks gorgeous, and the pumpkins are awesome!
ReplyDeleteYou have a wonderful collection of embossing folders, and I love the embossed background on this card, reminds me of wainscotting. Love the pretty pumpkin too.
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic! Fabulous colours and textures. Love it.
