I'm thinking I should change my blog name to "In the Nick of Time," give that, yet again, that's what I'm doing with my card today. Hmmm, nahh...I'll stick with what I have, because if I adopted this new name, I'd likely become even more last minute...
Today's simple little number, sporting some orange, green and purple - very stylish Halloween colours - and an oh-so-scary jack o'lantern - is heading off to three challenges:
City Crafter Challenge #231~Pumpkins (and I just re-read the challenge rules -they were only very visible in bold blue...gahhh...The pumpkins are not supposed to be totally orange! Mine is, although he does have a black face and green stem. Oh well, I'll share anyway...no need to count me as a contender, wonderful CCCB team. *palm smack on my forehead*
Crazy 4 Challenges #256~Orange, Purple, Green
Here's my simple little pumpkin...

You made a cute halloween card miss C
and for me I am faaar away from Halloween tradition
I was living 32 years in Indoonesia and there no halloween
since my son getting big I know it from his kindergarden
also but it still far from me..believe me if you search Halloween card on my blog maybe I did make it only two or three times at 2010 and never made again LOL...lovely card my friend..big hugs, Monika
I truly think I should ban you from participating in that same challenges that I enter. I want to have a chance! And your cards are just so perfect, there's no way anything else will be noticed. And your use of the diecut letters just give me an amazing idea for my Halloween goody bags for my team at work. You are so inspiring, Carol! And you're also very productive - each morning when I open my news reader app, I'm actually a little bit excited because I hope to find another card you made. It's just so great to read your blog posts – and have a good laugh – and then learn something new and simply be amazed.

ReplyDeleteI can't keep up with you, girl--wow are you a creative cardmaking machine! This is so cute, Carol!
ReplyDeleteTime for a few more comments before I tuck myself in for the night. These. 4:30 am wake up calls are killing me!! Little "Jack" is just so adorable perched on top of those fantastic layered tags! And just how does that "boo" for on there just so perfectly?! The pretty bling just finishes the card off boo-tifully
