I've Gone BATTY! - WOYWW/Moxie Fab World Vertical Sketch Challenge

Yes, my dear friends, we have a LOT going on today! It's Wednesday and that means you get to mock me for the mess on my desk...errr....I mean, you get to see my workspace. HA! BUT, I am also super excited to have a WAY fun card to share with you today!

Batty Halloween


Yes, my dear friends, I have gone batty! HAHAHA!!!! Seriously. I crack myself up sometimes. I really do. K. Moving forward... HAHAHA!!!! No, really...

Batty Halloween


Ack!!! The BATS are HANGING upside DOWN!!!! Yay! I love that. You know...'cause they do that when they sleep and stuff. Just say'n.

I created this card based on the fabulous Vertical Sketch Challenge at Moxie Fab World! I LOVE this sketch! It's wicked fun!


And, if you recall, earlier in the week I mentioned that I had a HIGHLY productive creative weekend. Yeah. Well, you see, I can't show you most of what I made, in all honesty, but I CAN show you the results! You see, I had actually cleaned up my desk quite nicely. That may have led to the productivity, to be honest, I don't know, but what I CAN tell you is that the productivity led to THIS:

*Sigh* I promise it was clear for at least an hour or so. I promise! HA! Actually, those who follow me know that this certainly isn't as bad as usual. I have LOTS of room to work on there right now. Which makes me wish I could spend the day doing just that! HA! Alas, that day will come, that day will come, my friends.

I hope you have a super fantastic Wednesday! If you would like to check out more fabulous workspaces be sure to head on over to Julia's blog! It's fun!

Jingle Out!

Great desk, lovely batty card. In fact, it's one of the best Hallowe'en cards I've seen. I'm so tired of ghoulish skulls & horrid images. Good for you!
