{MTSC #39} Creepy Crawly, Oh My Golly!

It's time for Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenge!

Once again, I started out with Mercy's fabulous sketch (see photo below), went to my stamp shelf looking for a circular stamp, and after significant pondering finally selected the stamp set ~ Batty for You ~ by Stampin' Up! I stamped the creepy crawly spidey image with Versamark and emblossed it with black embossing powder. Can you believe I've used 5 different circle punches for this card?! And I snipped the scalloped punches to give them a different look. The Halloween designer paper is from my stash and I've layered it onto Stampin' Up! basic black and pumpkin pie cardstock.

I don't send many Halloween cards, but I really enjoy making them! Truth be told, I've been *bad* about sending out any of my cards lately. I need to work on that!

Now, just click on over to Lord Have Mercy and see what Mercy and her fabulous team of Muses have created to inspire you today! Remember, you are *all* encouraged to play along in these challenges!

“The artist is a receptacle for the emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.”
