Boy oh boy has it gotten cold here quickly! Just a few nights ago we were hovering in the low 40's then all of a sudden we were below freezing by 10 pm. Yesterday was cold all day long and I'm worried this might be a sign of an early winter... yikes! I'll keep my fingers crossed that the dreaded white stuff holds off on making an appearance for a few more weeks, LOL!
Ok, enough of my moaning and groaning... we have a new challenge over on the Tickled Pink challenge blog and this week is a photo inspiration. I loves me some photo inspiration so this one was right up my alley. :)
It's a perfectly spooky Halloween looking room full of great shades of orange and black with plenty of spiderwebs and skullies. As soon as I saw it I knew that I would be using Witch Lylah for my card, she's just too fabulous not to ink up now that I've got her in rubbah. And considering I've made quite a few Halloween cards lately, all I had to do was pull scraps from off my desk and throw them together to get this one rollin'. Then I finished it all off with some super cool spider web looking ribbon that my bloggin' buddy Rinne recently RAK'd me (thanks Rinne!) and like magic it was done! ;)
Good luck everybody!

Good morning me friend. I hope that you are well. It id super cool here as well. lol.. Don't you just love how it goes from summer, to two weeks of fall then winter? I think your card is just adorable! I love how you have colored her as well as your ribbon that you have used. Your spiders creep me out. They look all too real. heehee. Hope you are having a great week. I actually have today off, then I am back on for 3 straight weeks on with only Sundays off. Oh well, I sure will be able to pay bills. l:O) Hugs, Lisa

We're getting a cold rain right now but we're expecting some snow late afternoon/early evening. Yuck! It's way too early. Right now they're saying a coating to an inch.
Absolut gorgeous.

Ok, so I'm a little slow... I meant to comment on this gorgeous creation last week and with the weekend snow storm it seems I neglected to show my teamies some love on their blogs!
I adore this, of course! Fantastic papers and I love the netting & the itty bitty spiders! Plus, your coloring is stellar as always! :)
