Halloween card for two challenges

Hi, there!
 How have you been in these days? It's yet like mid-summer here. :(
But, since passing away of the 9th typhoon Malou on Tuesday, it has been a bit calm. I wanna write here, "Autumn is just coming!!!" ASAP. How many days do I/we have to wait for it?

I had two biz-trips from last weekend to this Tuesday. Since then, I've been busy for my work. But I'm off today. So I could make a card for joining into both the Card Patterns sketch 80  - Thanks the Card Patterns for the great sketch! The left one is for this week's. I noticed it and had a lot of fun with this sketch before I went out. - and the Hero Arts September challenge Round 1. Hero Arts' September theme is 'Everything Autumn!' - Harvest, Halloween and Thanksgiving -. Also have a lots of fun theme! :)



Here is my Halloween card.

 This is a hybrid card. The center piece was used an easy way of masking - the ghost was stamped with oil based ink twice onto the printed paper, the selected area (by Lasso Tool) of the digital data was already removed and the edge of it was blurred by Photoshop. Other elements were a little 3-dimensional.
 This was my second time to join in the Card Patterns since last year.
*The actual color of the ribbon border is purple with emerald green stitching lines, and the stem of pumpkin is khaki green. Sorry, this photo isn't in good condition.
