Halloweenie Card



Here is another card I made for my lil' sis whom absolutely luvs Halloween. I fell in love with this tree stamp as soon as I saw it and of course I had to have it... I caught myself thinking tonight whenever you see some cool phrase or image "oh there is a stamp for that" or I have a stamp for that too" ~ hehehe ~ I experimented with some more distressing ink and sponging technique- this was actually a fun & quick card to make and very spooky don't ya' think =) TFL Hugs! ~C
