After a crazy winter storm in the end of October, losing power for 7 days and having the kids out of school for a total of 7 lost weekdays, this month has started with quite a bang.
I am finally getting myself out of the mental fog that enforced "vacation" created and getting back on track. But before I say goodbye to Halloween, I wanted to share just two more cards.
Both Meg and Conor had Halloween parties this year and, as usual, I wanted to create something fun for their invitations. I will admit though that this year was busier than most so I kept them much simpler than in the past.
Conor's invite featured a mummy digi stamp from Spyder's Corner. This is a new digi company that I tried and I have to give kudos for fantastic customer service. I had a problem with the download and Lyn was very responsive and helpful. I will definitely buy from her again.
He was colored with copic markers and I used a red spica pen for just a touch of sparkle to those bloodshot eyes.
For Meg, we went the witch route from a fantastic digi stamp from Mo Manning, digi stamps that are always fabulous.
My witch is colored with copic markers. For her hair, I used prismacolor markers and baby oil to smooth the pencil lines out.
The parties were a bug success (and exhausting for the adults - LOL) and I'm very glad to be moving on from this crazy year of no Halloween. Finally I can look forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas. Have a fantastic day!
I've just found you via google! (don't you just love it!!) Look out for my spyder has spyed post! (coming soon) as this has won you a freebie, email me and I will send you any digi of your choice from the store. (Love what you've done with my mummy!!

Is that mummy what you felt like after being without power?! What a great card!
