Curtain Call, W & W Rerun, and The Challenge #45

I've been on a Halloween card making streak and to day I have two for three different challenges.  First up is for Curtain Call - Going Batty.
I masked the moon and then black embossed the two sizes of bats from W & W's Moonlight.  The sky is inked with Distress Inks and I liked the way the moon looked with ink over the edges of the mask so when I removed the mask I did a little more inking.  The sentiment from MFT is embossed in white on a scrap of black.  I wiped off the static powder before the sentiment was dry which left streaks that I quite liked.  This will be my second entry into the Winnie and Walter Moonlight Rerun.

Card number two started out with me inking up a Tim Holtz 'shattered' stencil in black on white just to see if it would look like a spider web.  It looked great but then how would I use it.  The Challenge to the rescue.
The circle, vampire and sentiment are from MFT and that black embossed spider from W&W.  I'm sure there will be more Halloween challenges before the end of October.  Can I come up with any new ideas?

I'm so glad you dropped by.  You're all 'fang-tastic'.

I love your Halloween cards, Bobby! The moody sky has lots of atmosphere and the spiderweb is very clever too. You are obviously feeling spooky :)

I cannot believe that you used a stencil to create that awesome background on your card! I thought for sure it was designer paper! It is a really cool and spooky luck! Love your Halloween duo!!! Thank you for joining us at the challenge!
