Trick and Treat

I know we in the UK don't really do Halloween but making Halloween cards are so fun to do. So the challenge on Simon Says Challenge is for a Halloween card and even if you don't want to join in, do go and have a look at the stunning DT samples.
Last year I made a frame card, the tutorial was from Claudia of Pretty Pressings for the Papertake Challenge, here is the one I did last year in March. I wanted to do one again using Pink Gems Halloween Mimi and with the help of the Cricut, I've cut out a fence, spider and a web. I rarely use brought embellishments but the Ghost was with some I brought from Poundland years ago I have no idea what for but they've never been used,well till now.

Wow Debby, your card is fantastic. Love the image you have used and those fantastic papers. I've been hanging around waiting to see how you made the fence, web and spider. Which cart is it you used ?

I've just said the same on my blog about it being a shame we don't celebrate Halloween here as I loved making my card too !

Have a great day,
