Today at Freshly Made Sketches one of our fabulous guest designers for the month, LeAnne, created the sketch. Isn't it fabulous? So versatile and good for any type of occasion. Since we are so close to Halloween, I decided to focus on that for my card, plus I needed a card for another Hope You Can Cling To challenge. This challenge was from Judy and here's her description: My challenge to you is a reminder! Get 'em mashed, squooshed, photographed, x-rayed, and checked! And to that end, we will be sharing creations inspired by "The Monster Mash"!
I don't have the super fun Ghoulish Googlies, but I was able to bum it from my sweet downline Shannon to make this card. I thought lil' Frankie was perfect for the Monster Mash theme. I did switch the image side for my card, but that's the fun of sketch challenges, right?!

Here's our little family at the local pumpkin patch yesterday. I'll have more of Laila to share in the next week or so. I'm not sure she knew what was going on poor dear. It was pretty warm here, so I'm hoping it will cool off a bit so that we can go again.
This is such a cute card Rita. Love your monster and your colour combo. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThis card is just too sweet Rita - and I know it isn't supposed to be, but gee, it's too cute not to be adorable.
