Spooky Night !

JustRite has a colour challenge up this week. I love these colours !
Warning ! This is a long post because I had WAY TOO MUCH FUN with this card!
(Note to my sister, don't show the kids and don't you look either!!)
I decided to do a Halloween card, strangely because of one of my beautiful new Spellbinders dies. When I got Majestic Labels Twenty-five, I took some scrap cardstock and cut out all the pieces just to see how they looked. Today a piece I cut was sticking out from under something else and it reminded me of the fancy top on wrought iron cemetery gates. These are seriously beautiful dies, how I got cemetery gates from that I have no idea! (Sorry Spellbinders :) )
Of course then I just had to follow through and figure out how to make it work.
I used Co'ordinations cardstock for the card base and folded it to 41/2 x 61/4. I took two dies from the set and taped them to the cardstock, making sure they were centred at the top of the cardstock base. I only wanted half to cut, so I taped the base and the dies on the plate so 3/4 of the card was hanging over the edge and the edge of the plate intersected the centre of the dies. I then hand cut the window out of the front, following the curve of the die at the top.

I drew the pumpkins and cut them from patterned paper and added some Copics and Twinkling H2Os. I had to do the back of them as well, because behind the fence is acetate to support it. The spooky house and crow were cut with one of my favourite Spellbinders sets, Halloween Fence Scenes and Shapes, but the fence here was cut with a Slice. I sanded the edges of the crow, I think it makes him look ghostly.The patterned paper hill is Graphic45, and I painted over the already violet sky with Twinkling H2Os.It's so pretty IRL, sometimes it looks more blue and others, more purple, but it's hard to capture in a photo.
The moon is the same patterned paper as the pumpkins, but I added white Gelato and yellow Twinks so it looks more like a Harvest moon. I sanded the black lightly in places for a more worn look and on the inside I drew some gravestones as a place to sign the card.
Now, sadly, I don't have any of the incredible new JustRite Halloween stamps (But I did see that they are on sale !). I used great JR Fall set "Autumn Words" for the sentiment. I love Halloween stuff, but I only do one card a year, but I always have more fun with it than any other card I do!
Here are some more photos showing the set up of the dies, the interior and the painting.

So, I'm entering my card in the following :
