Happy Wednesday, everyone! Have you finished making all your Halloween cards? Do you even send out Halloween cards? I love making them, but only cute/semi-scary ones! Creepy gory ones not allowed! The Sunday Stamps sketch this week gave me a perfect background on which to make a fun little Halloween wreath! Here's the sketch:
And here's my card:
I used some retired papers to create the banner and the horizontal panel, then stamped my wreath from Cottage Wreaths in Pumpkin Pie and Memento Black, then diecut it out. I added the little "boo" on a diecut tag with some black embroidery floss and a little spider as an embellishment:
While going through my stamps, I found this cute little image from the retired set, Gift Givers! So cute! I stamped and watercolored it, then cut it out (not sure what happened to the matching punch!!!) and adhered it to the inside:
Quick and easy and ready to mail! I am also entering this at the Double D challenge of orange and black!
Thanks for popping in today--enjoy it and be blessed!

I love your Halloween wreath, LeAnne! The papers and ink colors make this a sweet card without being too dark & scary! My stamp girls made a card last weekend at my get together using this stamp set. I think it's such a fun and versatile set! TFS Have a great day! :)
