I am not a Halloween fan - I mean I barely ever buy anything Halloween and then it's time to make a Halloween card and I have to get pretty inventive because I have NOTHING. So this year I invested in the paper and the punch and figured I could invent SOMETHING! So here you have my HAlloween card for 2017. Hah, there won't be a second!! Happy Tuesday everyone!!

I'm with you, Karen! As you'll see, I had to resort to a "canned" design for my card. But you did such a great job with your black cat, bare tree and glowing moon. The "Boo" finishes it off perfectly! Now you can move on to Thanksgiving cards!

I am with you as well>I love the idea of dressing up and having fun but don't like how creepy and dark it is. Love your kitty silhouette thought and so neat watching your wonderful fall sky in the bg. I can just imagine him there checkin out his neighborhood....TFS..:0)

Well Karen, I would say you made the purrfect Halloween card! You have captured all the best elements of Halloween and put it into this one fabulous card. Halloween is all about black cats, spooky trees and big moons! Plus, you added to the eerie feel of this wonderful card by adding in lots of sparkle and shine - purrfect! I am impressed! ~Karen M.
