HALLOWEEN AT POLKA DOODLES!!!!

Can't believe another week has passed since the last Polka Doodles challenge. This year is going so scarily fast!!!. Talking of scary the challenge theme for this week is "Halloween". Funnily enough in all the time that I have been card making and crafting I have never "done" Halloween yet I absolutely loved it and got into it so much I made two lots of cards and "Trick or Treat" bags. 


For the first set I used the cute spider papers from the Polka Doodles Halloween Bundle download. The sentiment and images are from Sundae of Seasons CD. The orange Puffy Stickers are from American Crafts. I have used a Martha Stewart border punch and a Spellbinders scalloped circle for the treat bag. Everything else is from my stash. I actually used the mesh bag from the chocolate pumpkins on my card, a bit of recycling!!!!.
















I used the Sundae of Seasons CD for the images, Martha Stewart border punch, black Puffy Stickers from American Crafts and everything else from stash.

Thank you so much for all of your lovely get well messages. It has really cheered me up. I am feeling better than I was this time last week that's for sure. I am still taking things easy as still pretty fragile but I am getting back into creating which definitely helps keep your mind of feeling crappy!!!. Just wish that the sun would come back out as it is really cold at the moment.

Wishing everyone a wonderful and safe weekend.

Love and hugs Clare xxx
