Kraftin Kimmie Stamps- Weekly Saturday Challenge: Vinatge/Distressed

Hello Krafty Friends!! It's time for another weekly Saturday Challenge over at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Blog. This week's challenge is Vintage/Distressed! I decided to incorporate both themes for this challenge. You don't have to do both, you can choose one or the other but I liked the idea of both on one card.
Since Halloween is fastly approaching, I decided to do a Halloween themed card.

Stamp set: You're a scream

Colored Using Spectrum Noirs: 

Costume: BG1,BG3,BG6,GG1-GG3

Skin: FS2,FS4,FS8,TN3,TN4

Hair: EB6,EB8,TN5

Flashlight: BGR1-BGR3,LY1,LY2

Pumpkin: OR1-OR3,GB3

Pattern paper: Carta Bella-Trick or Treat 

American Crafts- Halloween

Solid Cardstock; PTI

Misc. buttons and wooden embellishments 

Stampendious- Aged black embossing enamel

Fabric

I just adored this vintage themed Halloween paper and have been waiting to find the perfect project to use it on for an entire YEAR!!

I distressed the edges of my pattern papers using a razor blade distressing craft tool. 

I feel the Embossing enamel also adds a great distressed feel especially with the ragged fabric behind it. 

I think the wooden jack o'lanterns also add the perfect vintage feel to them, what do you think!? Do you think I covered both themes on today's card!?

We always enjoy your creations so be sure to submit them so you can have a chance to WIN a $20 gift card to the Shop!! Show us your stuff!! In keeping in line with the rest of our challenges (Wonderful Wednesday and our NEW Krafty Scrappy Challenge), we will be drawing one winner per month from all Saturday Challenge entries to win a $20 gift card!!

I used multiple different items from the SPD shop, which I will list below.

• Stamps: Quackers, Welcome Baby, Tee-rific
