Goth Edgar Allan Poe inspired Halloween card by Cherry Nelson

Hello RRR peeps!  Cherry here to share a oh so spooky card with you today.  I went out of my comfort zone a bit with this card.  I found my inner "Goth girl".  I have to say it was pretty fun.  I love Edgar Allan Poe so maybe it is not such a stretch.  I love old spooky movies too.  

 I added lots of fun details...got out my jewelry making stash and wound some fun purple glass beads with a bat charm and wound them through my wreath.

 I used a fun technique that I kinda just messed around with.  I used Prima silver gel texture paste and wiped it onto my watercolor paper rather haphazardly ..it crackled a bit leaving exposed color underneath.  I than diecut the paper and created florals.  It created almost a zebra effect on the paper. 

I mixed all my florals and a few with Foamirian and mixed them in with some RRR florals for lots of texture.  

Well friends this will be it for me today! Keep on crafting friends!  Scroll down for RRR supplies used.
