Happy Halloween?



Happy Halloween everyone!

You would think today's post would be a Halloween card,wouldn't you?  But I've already posted my Halloween projects and they have all been delivered!

So today I'm posting a couple of Christmas cards. It feels like it's time for Christmas outside anyway. The sun is out, but it is COLD, and windy. I feel sorry for the kids going out trick or treating tonight. Brrr..hope they have warm costumes! At least it's not snowing. I remember taking our kids out on a few Halloweens when it was!
                                     
This week  Tis the Season has a soft pastel challenge for Christmas:







I chose SU's Holiday Home Bundle with last years retired holiday designer paper to make this set of cards. I just love blues for Christmas, and pool party is a favorite.






Have a fun Halloween!









Paper: SU pool party, DP, white, silver glitter paper
Ink: SU Pool Party
Stamps: SU Holiday Home bundle, Taylored Expressions More Many Mini's
Dies: SU Holiday Home Bundle, Lawn Fawn stitched hillside borders, Lawn Fawn Happy Trails, Marvy star punch, lil inker stitched rectangles

This card is so lovely. The pastels are a nice change of pace on a holiday card.

What a super cool "from our house to yours" Christmas card, Laurie! I love using pool party for Christmas cards, too, especially with a wee pop of red. Happy Halloween to you, too! Hugs, Darnell

What perfect scenes you've created here Laurie!
And those stitched hillsides look fab :)

Is it cold where you live? We've had the warmest Halloween on record (24C in London)

Oh this is simply stunning. One of my favorite colors for Christmas cards.

Great monochromatic look. The hills are with the various DSP. And thank you for the great idea for ways to use those houses! Aren't they awesome? Nice work!
