Retro + a Bugaboo Digi + Halloween

I made this card for the current Cards in Envy - A Little Bit Retro Challenge.   At 1am, when I was trying to fall asleep, I remembered I had a freebie paper pack with chip board embellishments in retro colors and design from my one magazine.  At that point my brain started working and there was no way I was sleeping until I got this card out of my system.  It's actually a very simple card.


Here's another middle of the night card using Jesse Bear from Bugaboo Digi Stamps.

I'm going to enter this in the following challenges:
Crafting for all Seasons Challenge #51 - Make it Funny
The Male Room Challenge #4 - Sports and Hobbies

And my final early morning card....  using the front of a paper pad showing all the papers in the pack....
is a Halloween card.



I did a bit of coloring and some fussy cutting before heading back to bed, where I eventually got about 3 whole hours of sleep.  

Now I have a bunch of limas to shell and freeze.  TTFN

    Maybe you can have a nap after the lima beans are shelled! Great job on the three cards. Bright and cheery Halloween, fun sentiment on that little bear card and the retro colors on the first are super!

    LOL - sometimes you just have to stamp when the inspiration strikes! :) I love the bright colors on your retro card. Thanks for sharing it with us at Cards in Envy!
    Your other cards are fun, too. That surprised expression on the ghost's face is priceless!

    What a creative night you had! Love the background on your retro card. It reminds me of the cover of old sewing patterns. Thank you for joining us at Cards in Envy! ~ Marilyn
