This month we are featuring the Moonlight paper pack. Its perfect for Halloween and also for so many other non Halloween crafts...




I have fallen in love with Mojo Monday's and their Sketches. If you dont know what Mojo Monday is you can check them out HERE.  I decided to do sketch #259. I wasnt sure at first (as always) what I was going to do... But I thought I could get a head start on this Hop and kill two birds with one stone.

MOJO SKETCH 259

 As soon as I figured out that I wanted to make this a Halloween themed card, I knew that I wanted to make the "circle" a nice Sun setting image. It was the easiest piece out of the entire card, and MY FAVORITE. Like any other Mojo Monday sketch you dont have to make it exact you can alwasy make it your own and adjust as you see fit.

As you can see instead of a banner and flower accents I chose to do a "Creepy" fence with tomb stone. Can you imagine putting a cute little banner and flower with this scene? maybe if the colors matched?? I just wanted to be different. :)

 Here is a close up of the "creepy accents" ;) and you can see a bit closer how my sun setting turned out.

Hope that you have enjoyed this FABULOUS Damask Divas Hop.
