Thanks Denise, for bringing us the perfect CAS189 sketch for my skeleton boys and poem card!
THREE SKELETON BOYS
We are three little skeleton boys
Who prefer pranks and games to ordinary toys
We have our own version of truth or dare
The winnerÂ’s the one who gives you the biggest scare
At night we hide quietly under your bed
And put scary thoughts into your head
We like to pop into your dreams
And love to hear your haunting screams
We love to put bugs into your drinks
And when you get sick we like your stink
WeÂ’ve been known to steal the eye-of-newt
Right out of our MotherÂ’s pot of soup
We like to scramble a perfectly good brain
And see you squirm stepping on worms in the rain
Sometimes you feel us oh-so-near
Sometimes you see us ever clear
We are three little skeleton boys
Whose haunting pranks bring us joy

I have almost purchased this image a hundred times - it totally makes me laugh for some reason. You did a terrific job on it and now I want the image even more!!!

This is fantastic! I love how your strips of square chain mimics the necks on the skeletons. Great Halloween card (and thanks for posting that cute poem, too!)!

Very cool design. Very striking and love the colors and dies and papers you used. Love the poem too, but if my boys were younger I think it would scare them enough to not want to go to bed! :-D
