Warning: Many Candy Corn's were consumed in the making of this post!
LOL! Can you believe it's almost Halloween?!?! Are YOU ready? I'm getting there... and trying not to wipe out the candy stash before the big day. Success? I think not! LOL!
Oh! If you are a new visitor to my blog via Papercrafts Connection today... WELCOME! (hugs to my regular friends as well) And... a big thank you to Kelly at Papercrafts Magazine for spotlighting me today. I feel deeply honored! Today I thought I would share one of the fun projects that they are showcasing over there. (I have two over there... but will blog about the other tomorrow!)Oh, and make sure to post a comment over there to enter to win something fun!
I really do love Halloween! I love the bold colors and kitsch decor that fill homes and stores. There is such whimsy to it all! I was looking for that feeling when I created this card. I used some fun new paper I was sent to create this 5x5 inch card. Oh boy do I love Argyle! It's become so hot again! :) Who would have thought that circles wold look so great with Argyle! (Marvy punches are the best huh!)

I used Doodlebug Paper, ribbon, gems and stickers (I know, I'm not normally a sticker gal... but hey, I was playin' and it was fun!) It was great to put my mad designer's lab coat on with this fun group of products. Did you spy the AWESOME Papertrey Ink stamps??? I can't make something without them, can I?! I used the 2009 Halloween Tags Boo tag as well as the small dots row from Polka Dots Basics II. Papertrey has the best black ink on the market in my opinion... True Black. It has such coverage and really pops out stamped images! (on a photography note... HOW cool is that blustery rain on my window?! Sooo ghoulish!)
On a more personal note... we are officially mended and everyone will be in School today! Yippee! Thanks for the thoughts, prayers and well wishes! I'm really looking forward to seeing their bright smiles when the hop off the bus... leaves swirling around their feet... It's time to enjoy fall!
Thanks for poppying by my friends! See you tomorrow...
