Halloween

Wednesday is here and Halloween has come!  First I want to let my readers know my thoughts and prayers are with all effected by hurricane Sandy.  Other than loss of power my family members in Virginia are well.  We even welcomed my baby nephew right in the mist of the storm.  Mom and baby are doing well and should be going home soon.   Today is the opening of our weekly challenge over at the Papercraft Star.  This week's challenge is to use a hot drink in your project.  Any tea drinkers out there?  Or how about some coffee, or hot chocolate!  I found this adorable image online and just had to use it on a card.  I started with a close to cocoa cardstock and added some patterned paper from SU (retired).  Next I added some vintage lace and a poinsettia I misted with some soft pink.  The image was resized in my photoshop and matted it in Chocolate Chip cardstock.  The sentiment is from SU and a little distress ink finishes my card.  Now it's your turn.  What will you have to show us this week?  Who will be our next Papercraft Star?  It could be you!  I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.  Thanks for stopping by.
