Halloween Workshop

Fall is  my favorite time of year and one of the things I love about it (besides the beautiful Montana weather) is Halloween.  My intent was actually to do a little more but I was sick for the last week with a horrible cold so I didn't get as much done as I wanted and the creativity has to be credited to Annette Green--a fellow consultant who is extremely talented!!  Below is a picture of all the projects --  3 cards, a candy bar treat holder and a  coffin.  The template for the coffin was from Martha Stewart's downloads.  Even if you are not a fan of Martha Stewart, her video is a hoot!

Colors used for the projects was Indian Corn Blue, Goldrush and Black CS and Inks.
