Fun House of Haunts Creation....


Good Morning & Happy Friday Everyone!!!!

I'm so very excited about the new Holiday Mini that went live yesterday!  I do LOVE a lot of the new products that are available to order & even though I didn't get any of the new Halloween stuff; I think my card still SCREAMS Happy Halloween!!!!

I started this off with a pretty basic layout that I cased from one of my swap group friends & proceeded to add my own lil' flair!  That spooky image was just dying to be sponged so I went at it & I am VERY happy with how it turned out!  I couldn't leave the sentiment stark white so I sponged that baby too LOL!!  I added ink to my embossed background, stamped some trees from Spooky Bingo Bits & added my ribbon.....DONE!!!!!

I have a pretty busy day & weekend ahead of me with my Holiday Mini Open House coming up so I need to get back to work!  Thanks so much for stopping by & I hope you all have a FABULOUS weekend!!!!!
Until Next Time,
Hugs & Love,
