Happy Halloween

Getting quite into the home décor makes, here's another one for Halloween:


Image and star BP are from Joanna Sheen's Card Maker's Year CD, BP on reverse is from Bearly Mine and image is a freebie from Stamper's Best. Used grand nestie scalloped squares for the shape and edged the black card with copper pen. Embellished with copper ribbon with stars, overlaid with black eyelet lace (only had white so I coloured it with promarkers) which had orange ribbon threaded through it; a WOC rose which I've distressed with black ink. The corners of the image have been decorated with stars from the ribbon and small black pearls.


and the reverse:
