Spooky Night

Colorful Options is back this month with a spooky mood
board and a mix of colors perfect for October!! 

Option 1 — Black, Orange, Red & White

Create a project featuring black, orange, red, and white.

Use all four colors together for bold contrast and dramatic impact. Think fiery glow, deep shadows, and striking highlights—spooky, intense, or graphic, your interpretation.

Option 2 — Pick Your Color

Prefer to focus on a single color? Choose one color from the palette: Black (bold, dramatic, high contrast)  Orange (bright, fiery, energetic)  Red (intense, rich, glowing) White (clean, stark, high impact).

    Let your chosen color take the lead—minimal, layered, or bold.


    I definitely went with OPTION 1 using the colors
    Red~Black~Orange~White.
    It took me awhile to figure out how I wanted to use all those colors
    together and a Halloween card seemed my only idea and perfect
    for October.  I used a Lawn Fawn four sides different cloud stencil with TH Distress inks
    and a moon created with a circle stencil I made using the negative piece from a SU circle punch.  ALL the dies used as well as
    the sentiment rub on are from Spellbinders.  That fence is a real 'oldie'
    I have had for years, it's a bit long but I just snipped it off to fit my A2 card front.
    The bats are from a 2024 Sept die of the month, also SB.


    I can't wait to see what your 'interpretation' is of the color board!!

    Entering the following challenges:
    Simon Says Monday Challenge ....Use 2 or more stencils
    Craft Rocket #141 ....Autumn and/or Halloween
