See I told you! I really went completely different route with it! lol I love it though and it is more me! I started by putting my Spooky Things Decor Elements on the Glass. I grabbed a piece of 8 1/2 x 11 Cajun Craze card stock to decorate. I took the image From the Crypt Stamp Set inked in Cajun Craze ink and stamped around onto the card stock. I then took the Raven from Dark and Dreary Stamp Set inked in Basic Black and stamped around on the card stock.
I cut a piece of DSP Newsprint, stamped the Raven in Basic Black ink, crumpled it up and sponged the following colors Cajun Craze, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive, Basic Black. I then snailed it to the left side of the Cajun Craze card stock. I took some 1 1/4 Black Stripped Grosgrain Ribbon, cut it and then frayed out the edges. I attached that to the left as well. I then took some Crochet Trim Victoria 5/8, folded it back and forth and placed it on the seam of the DSP and 1 1/4 Basic Black Grosgrain Ribbon. I then added Designer Jewels Black Flourish to every other loop. I took the Color Spritzer Tool and the Cajun Craze Stampin' Write Marker; and spritzed all over the completed piece of card stock. I put the card stock in the frame and closed it up.
In the upper left hand corner I took my other half of the 1 1/4 Basic Black Stripped Grosgrain Ribbon; frayed the edges and made a bow. I took the Crochet Trim Victoria 5/8 made a bow with it and attached it to the other bow. In the center I placed an Antique Brad to finish it off. I then took Jewels Basic Pearls and added them to the glass to dress it up a little more.
I love how this turned out!! It was so much fun to make this too!!!

Holly, this is beautiful. I love the frayed grosgrain ribbon idea, first I've seen of it. I like the newsprint and stacked ribbon and jewels to the side, such a pretty touch instead of all orange!!! Awesome project.
