Peek-A-BOO!

Happy Monday! We are in the last week of October, so I thought I would dress my blog up for Halloween. What do you think? If you are a regular reader, you know how I like to celebrate the seasons. I created the header and blog background myself. I just love that lightening streak up there!

The card I am sharing today is one that was rolling around in my head for a while. I couldn't seem to move past it, so I had to create it. Does that ever happen to you? Well, now that it's finished, I feel like I can move on and make something else. Sometimes projects need to stay in our heads, but, I figured I would share this one any way. Don't laugh...I had this idea to make a 'peek-a-boo pumpkin' card and well, without further ado...


 BOO!


 Here's a peek at the inside...




 It all started with this cute pumpkin sticker. I thought it would be fun to create a cut-out card showing his little face. The sticker and the patterned papers are from Cosmo Cricket's Matilda collection. The sentiment stamps and card stock are Papertrey Ink. I used some of my yummy wrinkled ribbon to make the bow. I finished the inside very simply to be able to showcase that pumpkin! LOL!

Thanks for dropping by today! I appreciate the visit. Make it a good day! Until next time...


 Blessings~
