A little spooky

Hello blogworld

So after that mild rant about Halloween here I am again with another Halloween-y card!  This time it's for the new challenge over Divas by Design and, guess what!, the challenge this week is 'Something Spooky'.

Our sponsor this week is Whoopsidaisy and there is a fab prize on offer - pop on over to the blog to see the full details and the wonderful cards my Teamies have made.

So this is my card - like I said I don't do Halloween, but there are two little boys who are having a joint birthday party next weekend (school friends of Emily's) and so I thought I'd make birthday cards with a bit of a Halloween theme.

So here we are - a Lil Spook having a monster birthday.

Front shot:

Detail of image:

Bit flat this card, so no arty-farty!

I used:

Digi stamp:

Pollycraft - Lil Spook

coloured with my Promarkers

Sentiment - combination of 'monster' from Pollycraft then I added the rest

Dies / Punches:

Nestie circles and scalloped circles

Die-namics - Stacking Stars

Martha Stewart punch for the zig-zag border

Papers:

Echo Park - Chillingsworth Manor

Anything else?

Ribbon from a local craft shop

So there you go, hope everyone is well.

Ah and we had a bit of surprise with those kittens.  The three of them went off to be neutered on Monday - vets called to tell us they were just about to operate on Ewok when they realised she had 'extra bits' and wasn't a she but a he!!!  Good job the name is pretty much non-gender specific!

Also it looks like 'Worried' might not be 'Belle', Emily and I prefer 'Holly' but hubby doesn't, the matter is currently under debate with further updates to follow.

See you soon,

Sarah

A challenge, or two:
