Oh you know I couldn't go too long without posting another shifter card! This card was 100% inspired by one of my favorite Halloween candies, and one of Tim's too -- CANDY CORN! I just don't understand people who don't love candy corn and candy corn pumpkins. So.good!
I used
Distress Watercolor Cardstock for this card and for the yellow and orange I went straight for the latest
Distress Oxide #4 Set and pulled Ripe Persimmon and Mustard Seed.
The sentiment and focal stamp were from a fun little set called
Spooky Scribbles CMS349. This set has some great sentiments and images that are sized to be stamped together.
I stamped the jack-o-lantern and sentiment in
Black Soot Distress Ink and embossed it with
Black Superfine Embossing Powder. Then I blended the
Mustard Seed Distress Oxide down toward the pumpkin, and added in the
Ripe Persimmon at the bottom, leaving the top white like a candy corn.
The
Mini Layering Shifting Stencil Set #36 were used on this card with both the
Mustard Seed and
Ripe Persimmon. I added some messy machine stitching and a
Halloween Token tied with a little black
Eclectic Elements Craft Thread.
The last touch was to cut very thin black cardstock mats for everything and handcut a mat for around the stamped shape that was cut from one of my go-to Sizzix Alterations die cuts called
Labels.

Love your card; the shifting is perfect! I, too think the colors of candy corn should be the progression you used! I actually resorted to keeping a few pieces of candy at my work space...unfortunately, I had to keep replacing them!
