22 Days...

Today, I am one step closer to finally using up all of the estate sale buttons.  I've got a long ways to go still, but one step is better than none.


I'm not really the biggest fan of the color scheme I chose for this card, but it took me out of my comfort zone which is always something I look to do, and it turned out good enough for me.  I've been feeling like I'm in a bit of a Halloween rut as of late so I thought trying something different might spark the creative spirit again.

27 Days...

This spooky card was extra fun for me to make because this color combination is one of my favorites for the Halloween season.  I love the contrast the purple, green, and black create.  It's very witches-brew-esque.

My favorite part of the card is the green puff paint on the green paper.  It makes the paper look dimensional with the monochromatic scheme.

31 Days...

 It's that time of year again, my favorite year in fact, and I'm so excited!  I'm starting off with this funky (and extremely heavy weight-wise) card.  That spider and cauldron are metal and suspiciously hefty.  I used a bunch of bits and pieces I had from Halloween cards past and I love how it turned out.  

I swear these felt skulls I bought a couple years ago are going to haunt me for forever because just when I think I'm about done with them I find more.  I've always wanted a good ghost story, but this one isn't good so much as sad.
