A Ginger Snap! Cute Little Vampire!

One last card using the Cookie Cutter Halloween stamp set.  The Vampire is such a charming fellow that I just had to ink him up.

Because my card is 5-1/2" x 5-1/2" it was necessary to make a customized envelope.  As long as I was making the envelope, I thought it would be fun to decorate the flap to match my card.

A Ginger Snap! PPA Sketch Challenge!

Time for another sketch challenge from the PPA!

 We had our first snow storm of the year on Tuesday.  I couldn't believe that 4 inches of heavy wet snow greeted me on my deck.  Because I had an order coming I knew that I had to get my deck cleared.  Now that was a lot of work!  Back to my card – the snow is what inspired my thoughts of a warm & cuddly type of card.
