People don't seem to celebrate Halloween much around here, and last year I didn't get a single trick or treater! I had to eat all the sweeties myself!!
I want to thank Mandi for pointing me in the direction of a 'new to me' challenge Keep It Simple
Well, with my blog name I had to join in, didn't I ? This week their challenge is to add a charm to your project.
I didn't have any Halloween type charms, so I made this little bat. I got this guy from the internet last year, but sorry, I can't remember who made him. I printed him out and layered him onto card. I punched a small hole in him, to add the split ring and then covered him with glossy accents.
Challenges -
Keep It Simple - 'Charming' - Add a charm to your card or project.
A Spoon Full Of Sugar - 'Boo!'
Fab & Funky - 'Things that go "bump" in the night'
Creative Inspirations - 'Spooky!'
Creative Cottage - Halloween
The witch is a digital image from this fabulous Halloween quotes collection here. It's only available for a limited time, so be quick if you want it.
DP is Hot Off the Press, Earth's Pallette. Pearls were coloured black with a Copic.
Ribbon from my stash. 'BOO' letters cut with Slice, Fa La La Design Card.

Great card - love your little bat charm! It's unpredictable here for trick or treaters, one year we'll get loads and then the next just one or two... so of course I buy LOADS of sweets just in case lol :o) Lisa x
Love the clean lines and that image. Love that little bat even more....he's gorgeous (and inedible, which is unusual for this blog! Hurray I leave your blog tonight without the urge to rumage for choklit....having said that, now the thought is in my head, there are seven choklit buttons on my car dashboard that i confiscated off BD earlier when he dropped them on the floor.......!
