BOO !

Ok, I lied! I said I was only going to make 1 Halloween card, but here's my 2nd.
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

Creative Inspirations Challenge 2

This week's challenge over at Creative Inspirations is
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
Your project must contain nothing new.
Head on over there to look at the great DT projects
and the other challenge entries.
The prize is the wonderful new CD Teentastique,
from Ooh-la-la-creations

This was a fun challenge to do and my entry is a Thankyou card.
The card I used was all scrap.
The lemon and blue gingham material is left over from last weekend's project,
which you can see further down my blog.
The buttons I cut off hubby's shirt...... lol* (old shirts, of course).
The stamp was a freebie from Cardmaking and Papercraft Magazine.
The blue checked paper was a freebie from another mag
and I found the paper clip, lurking at the bottom of a drawer.
