Wish You Were Here

I might of mentioned quite awhile back that last year I never had the time
to make many Halloween projects....
well, I intend to change that, as I have a bunch of Halloween papers, stamps
and do-dads that I need want to use...
And, also the fact that I just ordered a bunch more!!!
 
 
Today I have this rather "morbid" long legged guy that is sitting at the cemetery
with his Crafty Secrets digital postcard that says "wish you were here"...
He is a Memory Box die I purchased, last year on a trip to Joan's Gardens.....
when cut he has 15 pieces...wow...but he is so detailed....
 
 
I edged him in TH Distress Ink "old paper"..fitting I thought!!
I added a few strips of Queen & Co Washi tape, scraps of paper,
my always favorite "gingham" ribbon and a cat, and bats from my stash,
I had to cut the fellow a bow tie as well!
 
I am entering this card into the challenge at the"linky party at Crafty Secrets"

OMG this is such a cool Halloween card! Ha! Ha! That's not exactly the kind of invitation I'd like to receive (wish you were here at the beach would be better ... LOL) but this is certainly a fabulous collection of spook elements!
Well done!
Thanks so much for playing along in our September Linky Party! Good Luck!!

Hi Diane, I adore how you used our Halloween image as a backdrop scene on your card. I turned out super cute. Thank for sharing in our Sept Linky Party
