Sketch Saturday #75



Morning all and a Happy Halloween

Time for another fabulous new challenge on Sketch Saturday and another brand new sketch from Jo.....and what a challenge it was!!lol

Which is probably why I haven't followed the sketch exactly!!!!....well, I looked at the sketch earlier in the week and thought....OH!!!...that looks hard...and then thought about it over the next few days till I had an idea in my head, didn't bother to look at the sketch again until I made my card and then realised.....oh, oh, not quite like the sketch...doh!!!...never mind its almost right!!!

So, this week we are kindly sponsored by the Craft Barn and Anne is joining us for her final week as our GD.....thanks to you both

As its Halloween today and the last time to make your Halloween cards, thats the theme we have gone for today......oh what am I going to do with all those fab stamps....seems a shame to put them all away till next year

For my card I used Witch Emma, yet another fab stamp from All That Scraps that had yet to see ink!!! and some of the accesories from the Gift Giving set.

Here are the details
  • Images: Witch Emma and Gift Giving from ATS
  • Sentiment: Autumn Sentiments also from ATS
  • Paper: MME
  • Medium: Promarkers and Copics

Phew, this was supposed to be a short post....funny how it turns out like that sometimes

Anyway, thanks for stopping by, have a Spooktacular Halloween, hope you all have a fangtastic time
