For our Alpha J challenge. J is for Jack O lanterns. I had the pumpkins left over from another project, so just grouped them all together and sponged with some walnut stain, glued them onto the black glimmer paper. Made a black frame and adhered with black foam tape. I cut a black glimmer Spooky and 2 pumpkin pie ones and glued them all together. I used inch wide sookwang tape and burnished in fire opal glitter. This is for a friend's Oct. 31st birthday.

What a fantastic Halloween birthday card this is Shirl. It is full of spooky glittery goodness my friend. I just love this wonderful grouping of Jack-o-Lanterns and how you have framed them out. Your use of sparkles is quite impressive and so well balanced because it keeps the eye moving around the card in such a pleasing manner. I love it! ~Karen.

I love your group of pumpkins....I'll hate to see pumpkin season go as I love them so much. Your black glittery paper makes this just perfect for a Oct. 31st birthday. I know someone celebrating one of those, too.

Wonderful Jack-o-lanterns for Letter J. Love, love the sparkle! Terrific job making an October 31st birthday card it just a hint of the season and not being totally Halloween-ish. Great job! TFS
