It's time for our mid challenge reminder at the House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge, this fortnight our theme is: White on White hosted by Kelly - you can also enter a card with an anything goes theme as long as you use a House-Mouse, Happy Hopper or Gruffie image that will be fine.

I printed the Jack-o-Lantern image three times and coloured it with ProMarkers, I also stamped a selection of Halloween images from Clearly Besotted and cut them all out with Hexagon dies from Memory Box.


I inked the edges of the hexagons and attached them with foam tape for a little dimension.  The spider web background was created with a stencil from My Favorite Things.

You can never have .....

too much Chocolate!  Well that's what the sentiment says anyway - I think you probably can, but it's a nice thought.

I have been playing with one of the fabulous Card Kits from Paper Creator's Crafts.

This one is called Chocolate Bunny and includes:  Backing Paper and Layers Sheet, Jumble Pyramage Sheet, Envelope Front and Envelope Back.


They are really easy to make up, I just do a dry run first so that I know what I am doing - the layers are all numbered and there is a picture of the finished card to guide you as well.


All that I added was some dark brown card stock and my card base.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Party Time Tuesdays Challenge 186 - Anything Goes
Melonheadz Friends Challenge - Lots of Layers

Thank you for calling this morning, please leave a comment so that I know you've been and will be able to come and visit you.
