Guess I should be making more Halloween cards, this one was chosen for the Friday Five! Thank you ladies! H2H is one of my favorite places to get inspiration for CTMH products, it means a lot to me to have my card chosen by you!
This is an awesome Halloween card! Leaving the skull bright white in the center of those spooky colors, really makes it pop!
