Cute fuzzy bunnies and chicks for Easter? Nope. Hearts and flowers for Valentines Day? No way. Shamrocks and little men in green suits? Not a chance. It's Halloween in February Boise style. I am not sure what it is but I am itching to make Halloween themed and inspired cards. Each time I go into a craft store or dig into my supplies I keep lamenting over images of cobwebs, spiders, black cats and bats. Why fight the urge? I decided tonight to give in to my whims and created my first Halloween card for 2010. At a thrift store recently I purchased the oldest book I could find so I could use the pages in my cards and letterboxing LTC's. This card represents the first page I have removed from the book to craft with. Old books are a real crafting bargain. I picked this one up for .50 cents and it has hundreds and hundreds of pages. The possibilities are endless. Too bad it's past my bedtime or I would keep in creating. Maybe it's time to watch Nightmare Before Christmas to really get in the mood.
