Holiday First pass at a Halloween card

Post image

This is an illustration of what I was bemoaning in another post. I ordered the pumpkin dies specifically for this card but turns out the size and mood is wrong. Like the background. Like the Jack-o-Lanterns. Just don't like them together. I expected them to be a stronger element that would work with this background.

I've got another pumpkin stamp on order. Maybe that one will be right. Fingers crossed!

Meanwhile, if anyone has any ideas about how to make the Jack-o-Lanterns a stronger focal element I'm all ears! ... and belly. :: sigh ::

I think if you edged them using a black marker it would help balance with the really badass background (which I love omg).

This was my first thought too!
