SU Spooky Spell Halloween Card

Hi Everyone! Darn, my froggie is crooked! Argghh! Very annoying! I was too lazy to straighten him out and retake the picture but he's straight now. Pictures are great because they help you see what you miss in real life sometimes.

Anyway. . .I'm on the roll with these Halloween cards. I had fun making this card. This card was made again with another retired Stampin Up stamp set called "Spooky Spells". I have a lot of retired stamp sets that sort of sits for months or years without being used. I didn't have time to use this stamp set last year. . .mainly because my stamp sets were so unorganized, I was too lazy to dig through them. I had reorganized all my stamp sets and had placed all my Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas stamps together. Yipee. Now, it's easy to find the stamp sets I want to use.



Anyway. . .I colored the image, again, with my Copic Markers and used the same designer papers as yesterday's Halloween card.

I'll start working on my holiday cards and projects from this point on because I'm actually behind. Last year I was so behind that I had to bust my buns to catch up so I'll be proactive and start making my cards now. Are you all ready for the holidays? I can't believe how time has flown so quickly.



Card Details:

Stamps: SU Spooky Spells, Haunting Halloween
Paper: DCWV Designer Paper, SU Only Orange, Perfect Plum
Ink: Copic Markers
Accessories: Doodle Design Ink ribbon, Dress it Up buttons, SU Key Tag Punch

I luv this card it's soooo cute!!! I totally agree with you about how time has flown by this year! Is it because we are getting older? I don't know but yes I'm starting to make some Christmas stuff already. I need to make a bunch of all occassion cards to put in tins for Christmas gifts, so I'm duplicating my cards now.
