City Crafter Challenge #78 - A Boo-tiful Color Challenge

I am on a roll!!!  Third Challenge completed in ONE week!! 
So this weeks challenge is at City Crafter Challenge Blog.  The theme this week is "A Boo-tiful Color Challenge". The challenge is to PRIMARILY use the colors BLACK and CREAM.  You may use other colors, but the focus should be on BLACK and CREAM. To get the full details and rules also to participate and submit your project click on the City Crafter Challenge Blog link above.

For my card I got to FINALLY use my Clear Design stamps by Hero Arts.  The owls are ADORABLE and perfect for the colors and the my continued favorite Halloween theme.  I used Stampin' Up black card stock for the base and DCWV The Ghosts & Goblins stack for the cream designer paper.  For the pumpkins I used Fiskars pumpkin border punch that I finally got in the mail YESTERDAY so I stayed up making this cute and simple card sticking true to my blog title, Paper and Pajamas lol.  I used Stampin' Up cream card stock for the ovals of which I inked with Stampin' Up's basic black. I cut out and placed my images on dimensionals on top of the ovals.I also used dimensionals under the pumpkins next to the sentiment.  Inside the card I stamped the sentiment onto scrap DCWV The Ghost & Goblins stack of which I stamped the owls and cut them from.  I then cut out the BOO! placed dimensionals under the sentiment and placed it under the ghost owl to give some dimension inside.  I hope that all made sense, I'm trying not to rush but my big buy gets out of school early today as does my husband so I wanted to make sure I get this done prior to having to go pick them up.  Hopefully today we get a motorcycle so we will have to vehicles very soon.... lol.... this taxi Momma loves the views of the island but not so much the traffic.  Big hugs to all!!!
