How many of you remember standing in front of MTV doing the "Thriller" dance...singing along to every word? Darkness falls across the land
The midnite hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of blood
To terrorize y�awl�s neighbourhood
And whosoever shall be found
Without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell
And rot inside a corpse�s shell
I know I can't be the only one! So, in honor of the 80's song of all songs..."Thriller"...make your ghoulish, creepy, or not-so-creepy Halloween themed card...I know I have all the stamps, but never use them, so here's an excuse!
Uploading Instructions
You have 45 minutes to complete this challenge.
When uploading, be sure to put the challenge code AUG06VSNH in the keyword section. If you use additional keywords, you must separate them with a comma. The keywords ensure that I am able to find the card for judging!
Copying and pasting the keyword code is recommended to avoid typos.
You do not have to post a link to your creation or a thumbnail in the chat thread to be judged, though doing so will increase the number of views your card receives.
If you have any questions, I�ll be available in the chat thread.
Happy stamping!
Examples
Here are some samples to help inspire you!
Can't wait to see the ghoulish creations you all come up with!
I love the Booglies, too, but I can't justify buying them after I just bought Best Fiends and Just Between Fiends. I do love those sets!!! But there's only so many Halloween cards a person can create!!!
This superhero is flying solo for now, the dynamic duo and or Terrific Trio may fall into formation later in the day. Forgive them they are VSN newbies. But I'm back with all my super powers and here is my first card for today.
Okay, the top part of the card is soot stamping...looks like a scary eeire night with the dark trees stamped into the soot, below I stamped the pumpkins on a swirl paper and cut out and mounted to bottom two flat and used fat tap for the middle one for dimension. I then distressed the bottom under the pumpkins with a sanding block. Then used my signo pen and wrote my own saying.

I only have one Halloween set (retired) and I don't do scary so here's my not-so-spooky Halloween card! Thanks for looking and thanks for a challenge to give me a jumpstart on these cards!
This was my first VSN challenge and I had a blast. 45 minutes goes by way to fast, especially with a 4 yr. old and 2 yr old under foot. This was also my first time using the dental floss technique too.
Mine is not so thrilling but I did have Thriller in my head the whole time I was making it!
I did use the ghosting technique though. Is that spooky enough?
Thanks Kelly!
Friends are like the walls of a house. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes you lean on them. But sometimes, it's enough to know they're just standing by.
