I love candy skulls so I made a card using this funky guy. It didn't really photograph well since I used quite a bit of glitter pen on and around the web and the lighting just makes it look clumpy, but it looks better in person, of course! lol ;)

I am so obsessed with these little birdies! I've been on a self-imposed crafting supply spending freeze (well for the most part - I mean a girl's gotta have some necessities, right?)  I saw this adorable stamp from Whipper Snapper Designs and just had to have it! I love it so much that I think I'll change their colors and theme for each of the next 4 seasons and feature them in different projects. I mean let's face it... some stamps are just way too cute to use only once, right? Anyway, here is their inaugural appearance as Fall/Thanksgiving tweeties!....

So I have to tell on myself here and admit that this particular card was actually made two (or maybe even three) Halloweens ago. In reorganizing my craft room recently I came across quite a few cards I've made and tucked away in drawers and boxes and then obviously forgot to post or intended to post later and then couldn't remember where I had stashed them. Does this sound familiar to anyone or am I alone in my own personal realm of mayhem, disorganization, and forgetfulness? Anyway, this card is very simple but I think my little witchy pup is still pretty cute. I do have to apologize for the explosion of Stickles on this card. I'm sure there was a reason why I felt I had to use every Stickles color ever invented, although I can't remember it now (of course). So I hope you like my excessively shimmery witchy pup!
