The silhouette is an image by the same name as my post from Silhouette Design Store. I sized it, added sentiment then printed on Text Vellum. Trimmed to size and smooched in homemade shimmer sprays in yellow and orange along outside edge, leaving center as white as possible. Added sponging of orange/red and three other shades of orange with the focal image masked off. Stamped in black several stamps of foliage’s. Switched to reverse mask of focal image and moon then sponged orange and smeared black modeling paste along edges then water colored some details of the caldron and clouds. Added white dots with gel pen and cut home made boarder created on Silhouette for frame. All is mounted on white cs base.
My concept was that you are walking along the barnyard path and see this entrance into Old McDonalds’ secret passage, only seen on October 31. I love the way the witch is holding the spider in one hand and a bat in the other.

LOVE this!! The oranges and black scream Halloween. Love the silhouette image (with the black edge) and the font for the greeting. Awesome background stamping as well!

So fun when something turns out like you see it in your mind. The font was on the Silhouette it is called Algerian. Seemed to fit the holiday.
