Halloween


Finally a minute to myself.

I must first mention that I am a little sad as today is the 4th year anniversary of the passing of my friend Glen Arnold, an excellent Medic KIA in Afghanistan..... Here's to You Arnie....

This week as been absolutely crazy at work...I would get home exhausted but of course... work does not stop when I get off the base.... Then the real work begin.... homework, housework, supper and of course mommy work.  just thinking of all of that I get tired.

With the Regional coming in 6 days... I have to get everything organized for my Army work and family work.... not to mention getting ready for the regional itself.

I have been working or trying to work on these cards for my wonderful mother in Law Pan, she had asked me for 2 cards for Halloween.

Now I wish that I could take full credits for these cards but My friend Katrina Steele, is the one that came up with the techniques and colors for the images.

It is a combination of masking and using the brayer over glossy white paper.
Now Katrina used various DP and a distressing technique on her cards....

I do not have any of the DP and distressing is not my favorite technique....So... I used the spider web embossing folder from the mini catalogue.  I just love the versatility of these folders.

If you want the colors and the direction on how to make this card.... please email me.... and I will gladly hook you up.

Enjoy
