AHSC594 Happy Halloween Boo!

Happy Wednesday, everyone!  Time for a new sketch from Atlantic Hearts, and here it is:
 

I went old-school here and pulled out some stamps and papers that I've had for a while to create a Halloween card:


The papers are from Carta Bella; I cut some Watermelon Wonder paper with a scallop-edged die and mounted it all on a card base of Basic Beige.  Before mounting, I stamped some little bats all along the edge! I believe the vintage Halloween sentiment is from an old Recollections set....can't be 100% sure!  The "boo" is from Scary Cute and the "happy" is from The Paper Studio.  I stamped it on a diecut banner and it just seemed too big, so I did some creative folding to make it stand up, but still lie flat in the envelope!


I added some big enamel dots, and a sentiment from Close To My Heart's Hello Pumpkin on the inside:


Fun sentiment, fun card, fun sketch!  I hope you'll play along with us at Atlantic Hearts!

Fabulous stamps that are definite keepers, LeAnne! Love the folded happy! A creative way to fix a too large sentiment!

Halloween cards always look so much fun. Love this paper - it makes me think of The Munsters, which I can remember from my childhood. :-)
