Time for Round 4 at CDAC Progressive Challenge!

Hello and welcome back to the CDAC  Progressive Challenge.   I am happy to start you off for Challenge (cdacpc2) with  the brand spanking new Challenge as well as brand new images for this round as well!   This months theme is Halloween/Mystical with a great design element thrown in as well. 

Below are the two cards I got to use this round using two of the great images being offered to all returners and for a small fee to those who want to jump in!

Please check out the blog for all the deets!

On this card I actually used all digi papers  on my PTI black cardstock.  The ribbon is also Digi.   I then cut out my image and put it on pop dots added some black flock for his hair and some bling to finish it off!

On my second card I had this beautiful what I consider a design element but have to admit had no idea what to do with it at first.  It took a little effort to get it lined up but I have to say I love the outcome.   I  printed directly on my PTI cardstock, added just a black strip I scored for texture, some lace and a computer generated sentiment.  As you can see I also added some pearls to give it a dressy look.
