Halloween Spooks

Another Halloween card to share with you today, this one possibly for my youngest grandson as it doesn't have anything on it that could be pulled off and pushed up/in any of his bodily orifices! After a recent spell in the A&E department when he pushed a Lego brick up his nose I am not taking any chances - the brads are in fact punched dots stuck on the card. It's a simple layout with various images from a clear Penny Black set coloured with Copics and papers from Designer Digitals. I've inked the edges of the papers and the mustard card mats and risked the Platinum Stickles glitter on the edge of the image and the broom. The ribbon is in fact dark brown, not black, and has been in my stash for several years so it needs using up.

The Penny Black Saturday challenge is titled 'too cute to spook!' so hopefully my card will be ok to enter, and I won their last challenge! The Sweet Stampin' Challenge blog have a trick or treat theme while Cutie Sunday are looking for autumnal colours. Cards For Men are looking for animals, and finally Paperplay have a Halloween theme. Short and sweet today friends, I am still struggling with life and have a busy few days ahead so need to rest.

  1. Do take care of yourself & rest as much as possible. Life likes to suprise us - especially when chronic conditions lurk in the background (supposedly). Congrats on last week's PB win. Like your ingenious way of getting round the 'pulling off bits'.

  17. Hello Annie!
    You're the third person I've tried to get a contact with.
    I'm the lucky one who won last weeks Cute Card Thursday- challenge. I've tried to send an e-mail to Caz as asked to but I haven't got any answer.
