Ever wonder why ghosts are usually guys? Transform the Swirly Ghost Circle into a ghostette and give her a pretty background of shimmery metallic inks, a glittered channel greeting and some sequins. Hi, Jean Okimoto here, with a sparkly Halloween design for your special gal-friends.
Paint ivory cardstock with Peerless Watercolors and let it dry. Sponge it with Imagine Crafts Golden Glitz Delicata. Cut Swirly Ghost Circle from white cardstock. Cut around it with a Stitched Circle Layer. Cut a smaller circle of the watercolored cardstock to fit behind the girl ghost. 
Back the ghost's eyes with a scrap of black cardstock. Punch a circle for her mouth and back it with glittered coral cardstock.
Diecut the lacy Distressed Baptisia Collage design twice from a strip of orange cardstock – overlap it a bit when cutting it the second time. Trim it to fit behind the white circle.
Cut Happy Halloween Channel from black cardstock – trim the tabs from both ends. Attach it to a piece of glittered coral cardstock.
Attach everything to a top-folded 5.5" square black card. Cut the smallest ghost from the Swirling Ghosts set. Attach it with a foam dot where the "o" would appear in "Halloween." Add pink and orange sequins.
Don't you love how Halloween is no longer just black/orange/white? Pinks, corals, teals and dusty grays are appearing on spooky cards this fall. Experiment with your favorite color combos - then add shimmery inks, glitter and sequins for the perfect celebration!
Thanks for stopping by – see you at the TRICKS, TREATS AND GREETS Halloween class at Impress on October 8th. Better yet – arrive early and enjoy Impress' annual Holiday Open House that day too!
