For my Halloween window card, I die cut the Cheery Lynn window out of black card stock, then used my Misti to stamp the owl & branch w/ Memento, color with Copics, then over stamp w/ Versafine. The branch was die cut w/ the matching die & the owl was fussy cut. I had an orange & purple background I made on thin water color paper using Distress Inks & the acrylic block technique & after it dried, I put it in the Misti, stamped the moon w/ Memento, then used a white Prismacolor pencil to add white to the moon & stars. The moon didn’t look as white as I wanted, so I ended up stamping it on a piece of white c/s that I had brushed on some Wink of Stella & fussy cut it to add on top. I added the greeting flag and a bat & pumpkins die cut from the Creepy Wreath set.
Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used. (I used the fluorescent yellow Sharpie for the eyes & feet)

Oh, I love this card. So well done. Your moon turned out well. I’m sorry it didn’t turn out the way you had wanted it to go. Love that owl.
