Halloween Greetings, Punkin!

I realize that Halloween isn't until next week, but here is a little handmade greeting a few days early.  I'm entering this card in the following card challenge - City Crafter Challenge Blog - Week 182 - Pumpkin Patch.

Supplies used:
Card stock - Stampin' Up
Rubber stamps - Stampin' Up (retired Hedgehog stamp set) - hedgehog and candy corn; 'Happy Halloween', 'boo' and 'eek' - from my unidentified stash!
Button and twine - stash

It's October!!!!!!!!!!!

Time to get ready for Halloween!  I don't do much Halloween-themed decorating around the house.  Most of my fall decorating is of the generic type (pumpkins not jack-o-lanterns) so it can last through November.  I do have a few things that are most definitely Halloween and only on display during the month of October.  One of those is a Charlie Brown dracula that plays the Peanuts theme song when his hand is squeezed....how cute is that!  I also have some black cat and jack-o-lantern cross-stitched pieces that get displayed this time of year. 

I have spent some time this week making Halloween cards.  Actually my Halloween card making started in August when I joined a card swap sponsored by the Bazzill Paper people.  I had to make 10 fall or Halloween themed cards (1 design, 10 cards) using the Bazzill All Hallows Eve paper collection.  I mailed my 10 cards to Bazzill; in return, I received back one of the cards that I made along with 9 cards made by other papercrafters around the US.  This is the card that I made for the Bazzill Swap.

Here are four Halloween cards that I made yesterday and today.

(orange & blue is not a traditional Halloween color combo, but I like the way this one turned out)

 

 

 

This card

is not a typical style that I make.  The inspiration for the card came from the Graphic45 Papers blog.

 

 

 

And finally, a fun (that is, quick & easy) card:

I'm not listing the supplies that I used so if you have any questions about any of the cards, just let me know.  Now it's your turn.....go get your craft on!
