Postage Collage Spider Spooktacular!

Can you believe that Halloween is this Thursday? Time is flying! It's my favorite season so I'm going to sneak in as many Halloween cards while I can! Today I'm playing along at A Cut Above. It's a challenge for folks like me that love die cuts.

This time they're partnering with Double Trouble Challenge and if you meet their criteria you can link up at both challenges. I did follow Thing 1 and chose three colors - yellow orange and purple, AND Thing 2 because I used at least one die that represents HALLOWEEN - the spider.
I started with a Distress Ink background that I topped with a lilac Postage Collage Block die - its an A2 size frame die with lots of openings for you to fill. I stamped Spider Webs inside the openings.

On top I layered a Cute Spider with a witch hat from the Waffle Flower Sweet Ghosts set.

I double cut the "boo" from purple and gold glitter paper to add a little sparkle and shine.
A circular sentiment is added by layering circle die cuts... The sentiment is stamped on white cardstock and cut with a Slim Shaker Circle stacked on a larger purple Slim Shaker Circle, stacked on a Nested Pinking Circle cut from gold glitter paper.
I hope you enjoying your day and getting excited about Halloween!  It's almost here!

Oh my, so cute, love the postage die cut frames. Fantastic job on the background blending and use of the spider webs and perfect overlaying the other embellishments on the postage stamp. Thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble and A Cut Above.
