OOOHHHH Spooky!

This is my first post since Thursday I've been soo busy! This is a card for an awesome new challenge Saturday Spotlight with Hidden Potential! Every Saturday there is a new challenge you've got to try it out. This weekend the challenge was to do a Halloween card but to use no Halloween images! You can use Halloween sayings and paper its just the main image should be non Halloween. So I used houses in the background stamped off once so they appeared shrouded in mist. I stamped and embossed a new lightpost I got on the weekend and stamped and embossed a lineart cat and coloured him black with an orange tail. The spooky sentiment is a rub-on from Stampin up. Everything in the main image (except saying) is non Halloween! The background is a cuttlebug embossing folder which I lined with a sparkly gel pen. Tada! You can make a Halloween card without Halloween images. Awesome challenge!
Stamps: Fiskers animals, Inkadinkado, Stampin Up Right at Home
Paper: Basic Black, whisper white, summer sun, dusty durango
Ink: Basic black, dusty durango, summer sun, going gray, barely banana
Other: sparkly gel pen, ribbon, cuttlebug folder, rub-ons
