Halloween Bookmarks

I printed these books marks using a couple of Meljen's Designs images for my sons class. I think the kids will really like them and their parents will appreciate that they are not getting more CANDY.

Autumn Jar

Here's a card I created from a very lovely seasonal image from Bugaboo Stamps. I haven't put a sentiment on it as I wasn't sure what to put, so I thought I'd put it in my stash and when I need a Thank You or something else, I will add a sentiment. It's hard to tell in the photo but the jar is covered in Glossy Accents.

Thank you card coloured by my son Thomas

Here's a little Thank You card I made using a digital image from Bugaboo and a typewritten sentiment for my son to colour. He received a Colouring/Activity book from a friend of mine, and so he coloured this card to give to her. I love how he made the clouds !! He's 6 years old...soon to be 7 years old and loves making cards and colouring and being crafty/artistic.
