I posted this card earlier this week, and thought it was perfect for dynamic duos, Some of you have already seen it. 
                                    Can you guess the background stamp that used?

 I really loved Julia’s sketch, I did turn it on its side.
 Oh I had so much fun making this card! I am very happy  with the stamp I chose to stamp the background .( The background had to be stamped)  For once  I love how this turned out!  The B. stamp is the one from... Waltzingmouse Stamps: My Island. I think it looks a bit like old block wall in a dark hallway. I said a bit :) Ok ,the other stamp is a favorite of mine from Wanda’s Pantry WMS. The ribbon is from a craft store . I added a bit of Glossy Accents on the head.  I also had the button in my stash, key is from Hobby Lobby.   To frame the main stamp I just cut the edged by hand, because I don't have the real die that would go with this stamp. I think it works.  Did I tell you how much fun I had making this card. I wish they could all be this much fun and not work. 
                                                Thanks for stopping by 


 Had a bit of trouble lining up the pictures ,not sure why

    Elegantly spooky Marybeth! I like throwing purple into the traditional Halloween mix and you've done it beautifully. Gosh with school starting already I guess we do need to put our Halloween thinking caps on.

    What a fun card. As much fun to look at as to make, I'll bet. Lisa is right--it is elegantly spooky! I need to take another look at the WM Halloween stuff. I am loving this, and everything else I am seeing.

    Spec-dracula card. So much to admire, I think my favourite is the little accented cameo of Vlad. Love it !

    Marybeth, this is DREADFULLY elegant! I love the purples you've used, they should be so delightfully beautiful, but combined with the images and details you have they take on a more sinister aspect! So beautiful in a dreadful sort of way! :0)
