I'm getting a head start on Halloween..I know a lot of you have already started Christmas cards so I'm not so out of sync with our haunting holiday. I love this little window scene. I made this a smaller card by cutting an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of cardstock the long way and scoring on 5 1/2 . I then scored an inch from the folds, added some washi tape and embossed the edge with dots. The twine was added and then tape to seal the edge...got it? It makes for a cute sized card and fits in a regular A2 envelope.

Love your little AMuse costume shop scene. The colors for Halloween are great...love the "pop" of the acid green. Wonderful side treatment with your embossing, washi tape, and scoring....topped off with the baker's twine. A darling card, Polly.

How cute, Polly! Love your little costume shop and the colors are perfect. After what I saw yesterday, Halloween seems timely, lol. Went in Hobby Lobby and lo and behold...3 full isles of Christmas! Hey, nothing says "Happy 1st Day of Summer" like a full on Christmas display! If they start playing Jingle Bells, I'll scream!
