(Is it just me or is that one evil-ass-pumpkin-killing-candy-snatching-cat? It's just me? K. Thanks. Bye.)
And here is the inside of this fun card...

For my second card I pulled out the Halloweenie set from Skipping Stones Design! I love this fabulous Boo! poem! I combined it with Echo park Papers, twine from Whisker Graphics, and I used Tombow markers to color the candy corn. This was a bit out of my cleaner, simpler style, so it was a challenge, but I kinda love how it turned out!




You've Been Boo'd!
