Hi everyone,
Ever since school started back up, I haven't had much time to make cards but I'm glad I could make this one and I had a lot of fun making it! The owl and sentiment are both from Mark's Finest Papers. I colored the owl with colored pencils and I don't really like how it came out, but I guess it's OK. I used some pearls to cover some of the dots on the bg paper (which I love) and I like how it looks. I found the black ribbon in Mom's sewing room and I'm glad I stuck it on, because (at least I think) it really makes the whole card look better. I really like this one and I can't wait to make more holiday cards (which are sure to follow). Hope you like it!!
Thanks for looking!!
Joanna

Hi Joanna!! This card turned out so cute!!! I love how you matted the owl three times to tie in with that awesome DP you chose. Your CAS design for this is *really* nice. The pearls add some great dimension, and your ribbon really does make the card look better!! Great Halloween card, sweetheart! I'm so glad you found some time to make a card again.
LOVE YOU!!
Mom

What a great Halloween card! Love the paper you used and that wonderful owl - not to mention your found ribbon (isn't it great to be able to raid your Mom's stash! - wish I could).

I think your Halloween card is just splendid! Also, I think you did a good job with the coloring. You have a good eye for details and I agree with you that the ribbon really looks sharp with this sketch. Good job on this Halloween card with perfect colors.
