Out on a Limb...BOO!



I'm back with another challenge entry.  This one comes from Paper Players and it's a layout challenge.  Take a look:



I liked the clean and simple feel for it, so off to the craft room I went.  Here's what I came up with:


Instead of using three images for the main section, I spelled out "boo" using the Simple Letter dies.  It still has three (wink, wink)!  I cut the letters from both Olive Olive textured card stock and a piece of cardboard that comes with the Decor Elements.  This way the letters stand out a bit more.  On top of that I stamped and (patiently) cut out two images from the Out on a Limb set that will be available on September 1.  The polka dot paper is from the Frightful Sight DSP.  The layer behind that is Basic Black satin ribbon, layered with Old Olive 1/8" taffeta ribbon.  The gray piece of card stock is stamped with the cloud image from the set but then I sanded the edges and paper to give it a more worn look.

Thanks for looking!
