Spooktacular Wishes

Good evening!

A late post this Sunday for me.  
A little something cute and spooky for a couple challenges.  



Halloween is my favorite holiday(next to Christmas).  I love the decorations, the costumes, trick or treaters, the candy and the scary movies. I sooo love the scary movies season! I do have to specify, I love horror movies, but not slasher movies (there is a difference). In fact, as I make this post, I'm watching The Conjuring 2 and the Hubs agreed to watch it with me.  He is NOT a horror fan but will endure it with me sometimes. 

I was inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week to create a Halloween card with this cute little ghost dog die (Spellbinders) sitting in front of a full moon on Halloween. I created the moon with moon stencils from Spellbinders. I thought white clouds didn't look right so I cut black clouds and and inked some white on them for a more mysterious look.  The bat I sparkled a bit because, who says scary can't sparkle too? 

So while I love my movies dark, scary and all things supernatural creepy (think The Nun, Paranormal Activity, The Conjuring, etc), most of my cards I like to keep on the cutesy side of Halloween. How about you?

Nance, this is one of my favorite dies from SPB and you showcased it beautifully. I love that background and how you shaded around the moon to give that halo! So glad you shared this with us at Just Us Girls this week

Nance, there's just one more thing that makes us 'sisters from other Misters'! I could watch the Exorcism again!

I like Halloween cute and/or scary. But I prefer my movies not scary. This is a delightful Halloween card! I love that moon and the dog ghost and I hope you'll bring him when you come. Pretty please?
