The Boo Crew..and Happy Halloween!!..2 cards!!

I have shocked myself....it is one thing for me to have 1 card...but 2??? I tell ya' these little High Hopes Halloween images are just the Cutest and I've so enjoyed playing with them. The above card is a Tent card...(tent cards are one of my favorite to make). The images are from High Hopes created by one of their new fabulous artists Laurie Furnell. The stamps I have used on this card are - Boo Family in Frame, The Boo Crew sentiment, Pumpkin Treat and Happy Halloween sentiment. The fence is a Martha Stewart punch. The High Hopes images on this card are - Boo Crew in Frame, Happy Halloween sentiment and Broom. Another Martha Stewart punch for the fence. I've colored all the images with copic markers as a base only..prismacolor pencils and h20's. Please remember not to use copics over prismacolor pencils as the copic tips will be ruined. The patterned papers are My Minds Eye and Basic Gray. If you have any questions ...feel free to ask!! We have just had our first winter storm of the season. It started the night before last. What a mess!!....over 15 cm of snow...low temps and a horrible wind. It is just starting to clear up now...and Hubby is outside shoveling. Looks like it may take a few days to leave...I say it will leave and hubby says it won't. I sure hope I'm right..lol. I'll be back to wish a Happy Halloween. Have a Great Day Everyone and Thank you so much for visiting and your lovely comments!!!
