Halloween is Coming!

I can't believe that Halloween is just around the corner already, and we have got through half a term of school in what seems like the blink of an eye!!

I love Halloween from a crafty point of view as I love all the cute little images that you can get, plus the lovely colours associated with this time of year.

I don't have much reason to make Halloween cards, but this year I have made one for my son, as he is still young enough to love dressing up and going out Trick or Treating so I thought that this digi image from Squiggle Stamps would be just perfect for the job.

I have coloured this image using my lovely Promarkers and the papers are from my scrapbooking stash. I am ashamed to say that I give in to the urge to buy a few Halloweeen papers every year, but never get round to scrapping the pictures if my son and his friends.....so this year I decided to dust of a couple of sheets and this is the result.

As there are plenty of autumn / halloween challenges at the moment, I am going to enter this card for the following:
