Anyone can be an Angel !

My 'Clean & Simple' cards can be pretty hit and miss - I just can't stop myself reaching for the embellies  :-)
Can you see here? Those pearls were just screaming at me to be added - they virtually jumped onto the card themselves !!!

There are NO mistakes on this card! Can you believe it? I hardly ever make a card where something isn't quite right. Ok, Ok... stop trying to find something :-))

I would like to enter this card for a couple of challenges...
Keep It Simple - fast becoming one of my favourite challenges - where the theme this week is 'Take A Bow'.
Fussy and Fancy - fab DT work to inspire you - theme is 'Winter Wonderland'

Stamp - from the Penny Black, Christmas Critters set, coloured with Copics and Sakura Glitter Pen.
Design Paper - Memory Box, Spiceberry.  
Large snowflake cut with Slice machine ( Fa La La Design Card ) and covered with Diamond Dust.
Adhesive pearls coloured red with a Copic.  Red Ribbon from my stash.

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
