Happy Halloween!

 I took an old (no longer in business) set from Sparkle N Sprinkle to create this spooky scene for you. I wanted to wish all of my fellow bloggers who are so faithful to me in commenting a wonderful and fun day! I hope you like this quick scene I made for you and that you have a spooktacular and fun day!



This involved a lot of ink blending with my brushes and then along with my Misti I stamped the images onto the card. I hand drew the ghosts however. I am sure you can tell they are a little messy looking. I used a white paint pen for them and the sentiment.

I had a great time making this and now it is rest time. I also made seven Christmas cards this week and maybe later on will share some of them with you. I do a card or two besides cooking and laundry and then rest in between. I am taking it one day at a time.

Thanks for visiting and please stay safe. Halloween is a great time to wear a mask but in this pandemic it is wise to wear it all the time when out and about.

God bless, Verna

Super card. Your ghosts turned out great. I'm glad you're feeling like creating again as well as doing household chores, but don't overdo it.

Great Halloween scene; your sponging looks great!

What a lovely scene! I think the ghosts look great, because ghosts are sort of wispy. We only had 6 Trick or Treaters last night, so it was quiet, but nice!

Spooky scene just perfect for Halloween! We had no trick or treaters here this year...but we are a ways in the country. I did have some candy on had as one never knows!

A spooky Halloween card and I really, really like your hand-drawn ghosts. They look transparent and perfect for your card.

This is a great spooky scene. Your ghosts look good and I love the font of the sentiment. Very spooky by itself. I'm glad you are pacing yourself so you don't over do. That is so wise and gives you a chance to get things done and still heal. Good for you!

A wonderful Haloween card.

You made a cute and spooky scene, Verna! The background looks amazing, especially that moon! Beautiful job with your ink blending!

Fabulous ink blending and I would never guess you hand drew the ghosts! I was thinking how cute they are and how oldie sets are sometimes the best. Halloween was quiet here. When we went out with the dogs after dinner there were trick or treaters on the street, but none at our house. I'm glad you're pacing yourself, Verna. I'm sure you still need lots of rest.

I'm late for the Halloween wishes, but your card is so cute with those 2 ghosts! I'm happy to hear you're doing well in your recovery :) Take care!

Such a fun Halloween card, Verna! I love your hand drawn ghosts! Glad you've been able to make cards, but still get your rest periods. Take care!

TK said...

You're amazing, Verna! You go girl, you're an inspiration to us -- cute cards, laundry and cooking, not to mention your top job of recouping! Take care, My Friend!
