The treeline was cased from a card by Michelle Zindorf. They are from Lovely as a Tree. Back trees are stamped in black and the front with white craft. I TRIED to brayer the sky like she did but soon gave that up and just used not quite navy. She is the master of brayering!!!! The moon was also taken from one of her cards. Sponged with apricot and then sponged in the center with more mustard. Used MS fence punch on the bottom. The balloons were paper pieced, raised with foam tape and covered with crystal lacquer. I went over the outside lines of the balloons with a glitter gel pen. The bats are buttons. The little guys in the balloons are from a cube stamp by Inky Antics. Used a signo gel pen for the stars and the dots.
TFL!!!!

Your card is wonderful! The trees and moon are terrific and the little baskets with monsters in them are just too cute! Great card! TFS!

Oh Dianne, this is fabulous. I love those black and white trees behind that black fence. oooh, the dark of night is pretty darn apparent with this one. Your moon is perfect with that witch, plus, I happen to love your bg ~ that didnt need to be brayered, silly girl. It's perfect just the way it is. I happen to love those dots. Fabulous talent; fabulous card.

This looks so awesome Dianne. I love the skyline you created. The tops of thos trees look real. Really nicely done. I agree with Anne. No brayer needed. Michelle makes it look so easy. Great job...Very well thought out..

Dianne, I love this! Those trees against the night sky are just dazzling. I love your big shiny moon. Your hot air balloons are way cool paper pieced and then crystal lacquered up. Where did you get them? I love hot air balloons. I took the kids to watch some take off one very long time ago. It was so cool. As is your card here. LOVE LOVE LOVE it! TFS :0)
