Use one color or several, whatever your favorite is! Looking forward to see all the beautiful color combinations! And here is my challenge creation. I decided to go with a brown-black combo for my 'spooktacular' card.  The sweet image is called Little Witch with Broom and available in the Belles 'n Whistles store. The cute little witch is colored using Copics. DP is from an older MME collection I found in my stash. The spiderweb is created using a Memory Box die. Sentiment is a stamp I found at Michales in the $1 bin. All other embellies are from my stash.   Thanks for visiting me today and hope to see you over at our  Belles 'n Whistles challenge blog
