Halloween Flair

by Taylor Usry on September 17, 2012

Hi everyone!  It’s Taylor here today, to share my “Fall into Fall With Flair” projects.  I absolutely love this season – the sights, smells, cool air, and warm color combos just make me happy!  I decided to put a Halloween spin on my projects with the gorgeous Zva Creative bling.

The card above features Chillingsworth Manor paper and the fun Stampendous Halloween Sprite stamp.  I colored her with my Spectrum Noir markers (you can see a full color list over on my blog today).

I had to make a second card using the ZVA bling – I’ve never used it before, and was amazed a how fun and easy it was!  I kind of want to put it on everything now :)  For this card I used the Raven background stamp from Stampendous, and again used the Chillingsworth Manor paper by Echo Park (you can pick them both up at i {heart}papers).

Zva Creative produces many beautiful color groupings of high quality pearls, flowers and crystal embellishments that can be used on scrapbooking, card making and mixed media projects. Visit Zva’s gallery or blog for great project ideas and to find a list of stores and online retailers that sell Zva click HERE.

Want to win some Zva Creative  goodies of your own?  You can win the product featured here by leaving a comment on this post and we will pick one lucky winner at the end of the week.

Purple and green – my favorite Halloween color combination . Who says that it has to be orange and black – this really sparkles too.

HiTaylor, I’m not into Halloween much as my kids and grandkids are mostly grown. I do have a new grandson, Mason. His dad waited a long time for a child. Finally at 40 they had one! And we all love him. So I will be doing halloween when he’s older. And for my 2 yr old great grand daughter too!
They keep us young. Who am I kidding, Mason wears me out! lol
I love both your cards. The raven especially. TFS Hugs, Jess
