Happy October!

 Well, long time no see! 

This past summer was quite an experience. I got not one but 2 medical issues that just took the wind out of my sails for a good long time.  I have finally recovered and am back to creating.

The beginning of the month is time for a new challenge at Crafts Galore and our sponsor is Conjurer of Dreams.

You all know how much I love Halloween so I choose to use the Plague Dr image to make this fun digital card design for a bit of Halloween fun!


If you create anything in the month of October, please be sure to enter your creation on the Crafts Galore blog for your chance to win!!
Happy Creating!
