I was tempted recently to try the new clear stamp sets produced by Chocolate Baroque and chose the Batty Owls set, not really for the Haloween stamp particularly but for two really nice owl ones in the same set. Not used them this time but I have incorporated another owl onto the background where I've used paper printed from Essence of Nature CD and overstamped with some Nature Swirls stamps which just goes to prove how well Chocolate Baroque products can be combined using items old and new. I made masks to produce the effect on the Batty panel using distress inks.
Wonderful Halloween card Val. Fab stamping. Love the colour combo. Enjoy your new stamps. Thank you for joining in the ATS&M Challenge.

A gorgeous card Val, I don't normally do Halloween, but just had to buy the set with the Witch (not uesd it yet), I also liked this set too. I love the way the bats are flying across the moon, and the owls you've used make a super background.

Your batty effect is superb & I love the colours you used - I'm not into Halloween either but it's an interesting stretch of the creative & imaginationary skills. Congratulations on your top spot too.

This is brilliant Val. I don't actually 'do' Halloween at home but I do love it. I love the imagery and you have made a fabulous card with these stamps both old and new. I do like those bats and that's great masking for that huge moon.
