Ready or not...

Here they come! Have you gotten everything ready for trick-or-treaters at your house? We still have a few preparations to make before the big night arrives!

It's my turn to showcase OCL's Spotlight Set of the Week...another DT mate and I will be taking turns posting Peek-a-Boo cards on the OCL blog. This one is based on a fun sketch from 2Sketches4You.

If you are a Splitcoaststampers fan club member, then you already know that this is one of my favorite sets lately! I have had so much fun coloring its images and making all kinds of cards with them. They seem to call for bright, happy colors and bring a smile to both the creator and the recipient!

For this card I used all kinds of left-over things from my stash...I'm revisiting old favorites! The paper is from K and Company (here's the 12 x 12 version). I used Nestabilities circles to make a recessed window for the image to peek through. The little line of teeny tiny spiders at the top was created using the creepy crawly from Holiday Cruiser, another set that I just can't seem to keep my hands off of! The plastic spider accent was a find at Joann's, and I added some bling to it to make things more interesting. I love that spider web edge, made with a Martha Stewart punch...it really shows up great with a line of rhinestones and the contrast between the bright green and purple card stock.

Hope you'll come back for more Peek-a-Boo creations as the week goes on!
