Waltzingmouse Blog Hop & Sketch Challenge




These are the colors we were asked to use for the blog hop!





 Hello, and welcome to the Waltzingmouse blog hop. I am also entering this in the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge. The beautiful sketch this week is from 
Becca Feeken. Hope you stop by and see all the wonderful creations ,
 that the others have made.
  I heat embossed my bats, but it didn't show up in the photo. After I die cut the trees
 I stamped them with a script stamp .
Still time to play if you check out the freebies , that you can use on the blog.
 Have fun and thank you for stoping by.




Stamps: Waltzingmouse ; Gracie at Halloween
Dies : Memory Box ; Tall Birch
All ribbon and embellishments from Hobby Lobby
All paper is from Papertrey Ink
