Trick or treat gift bag....

Flutterby Wednesdays challenge this week was to incorporate buttons on your card! Well,I decided to make some trick or treat gift bags for the little ones that come to our door this Halloween....seeing as we only get maybe 5 or 6 kids! We live a little bit out in the country and only have a few neighbours...so I can do something special for them!


I used Pippi from my Swiss Pixies stamp collection...I thought she was just darling in her little pumpkin outfit. I made some pumpkins (again) for my card just hand cutting a pumpkin shape and then taking marker to make the swirls.

I hope you are enjoying your Wednesday and the sun is out and making it nice and warm. Here it is a little overcast but very cool! Thank-you so much for popping in for a visit!

WE get loads - some of them far too big to be trick or treating lol! I must admit sometimes i sit in the dark to avoid them lol! Am i mean?
Love the little image and your handmade pumpkins are just fabulous .
