Happy Halloween!

Halloween has had a monopoly on my crafting time lately!  I'm not a big fan of the holiday (the classroom insanity level is higher during the week leading up to Halloween than it is the week leading up to Christmas break), but I'm absolutely in love with Mini Monsters, my newest cartridge, so I'm having a lot of fun with these cards!

Hello!

I am absolutely in love with the weather right now!  Fall is my favorite season.  I just love the cool temperatures, crisp breezes, and the crunch of leaves.  I thought it would be appropriate to start my first post with a fall-colored card!


Cardstock:  scraps
Squirrel:  Create-A-Critter; cut at 4 inches
Border Punch:  Martha Stewart
Sentiment:  handwritten, idea from Create-A-Critter cartridge
