Early Halloween

      I know we're still 6 months away from Halloween but I love making Halloween cards for all the kids (all adults), grandkids (all adults but for 1 mid-teen), and great-grands (all below high school age.)  Besides, there's an all Halloween challenge which I missed last month due to my COVID rehab so I want to be sure I play this month.  I think you can pretty much count on at least 1 Halloween post per month from this point on because I want to play along regularly.

     My card for this month has an image from Beccy's Place, the cutest Halloween cat ever!


I used Sketch 205 from Sweet Sketch Weds 2, reversed.

It's great to see you back at it NanaConnie, I'm glad your recovery has gone well.
You've done a wonderful job putting this card together, and how fabulous that you create them for all the members of the family! Love the spiderweb paper and the sheer organza ribbon you added.
Cheers,
Beccy
