Trick or Treat with Digital Delights

Halloween is coming up and thought I would make a card for my sister-in-law.  Even though this card has a cute character I made it to be more adult-like with the designer paper from Memory Box - Blackbird.  This paper is a little darker, more spooky. I also followed this weeks Mojo Monday sketch.

I don't have many orange embellishments so I ended up making my own flower using the technique I posted about last year. Of course I had to add a little orange Stickles.
