Halloween Sprinkles Card

Hello!  I made this card about a month ago, but held off sharing it when all the Halloween clay confetti sold out so quickly in Pretty Pink Posh’s August release.  Some are back in stock now and we're a bit closer to Halloween, so I thought now would be a better time to share.  
I started by dry embossing my card base with Pretty Pink Posh's Trellis Stencil.  It adds great texture without distracting from the focal point of the card.  Next, I pulled out the Boo Shaker Die. I trimmed the word "boo" out to leave only the pumpkin outline, and instead die cut the Happy Halloween Script Die in pink and orange for the sentiment.  
I wanted the card to have a fun, playful feel, so I pulled out several different confetti from Clay Confetti Wheel #4.  (They are also sold individually.)  I embossed the bat image from the Halloween Wreath Stamp Set and stamped the ghosts from the Halloween Circles Stamp Set and arranged them to float on my card.  I filled in the extra spaces on what I affectionately dubbed the party trail with silver stars sequins and 4mm pink peonies sequins.   After I finished the card I was tempted to make another using these same sequins and stamps, but instead using them as the fillers in a shaker card.  I might still...it ended up being such a fun combination.  

Thanks to Pretty Pink Posh's cute release, my Halloween stash is building.  I love sending cards on the holidays, and these new goodies are sure making it easier to create the cards I'll need.  I hope you are headed into a blessed Sabbath. Thanks so much for stopping by to visit.
