I used the Midnight Madness sketch challenge #22, the Old Photo-Witchy Woman freebie graphic from the Graphics Fairy, and the QKD Fantasy Witch's Hat stamp to create this card. 
Since I can't sew, I put some interesting trim around the photo for the stitch effect. I stamped the hat onto the photo, outlined it with a Sakura black glaze pen, and added black Stickles and a silver satin puffy star. Isn't it great how the QKD hat looks like part of the original photo? The spider patterned paper and tag are My Mind's Eye, from a collection my daughters recently gave me. Sweetwater makes the October month paper. The other papers from my stash, along with the cat rub-on, shall remain nameless as I have long since lost the info. I recently purchased some puffy satin bat ribbon and cut off two bats for embellies. An amber gem completes the sketch layout. I really like that I was able to create a Halloween card without using traditional bright orange.SPECIAL NOTE: Thanks to Pricillastyles, home of Midnight Madness, where I won the ribbon box and was one of 10 finalists for the ginormous grand prize--a Workbox from the Original Scrapbox. Although I didn't win the big prize, it still was fun salivating for a while over the thought of having that workspace in my craft room.

That card is amazing. I love it. What an awesome halloween card.
What a cool image!!! It looks almost like the Wicked Witch of the West from Wizard of Oz! The ribbon treatment around that image is awesome. It's a scary card perfect for Halloween giving. Thanks for playing Midnight Madness this week. We really appreciate it.
