Love Is In The Air card Using Conie Fong Halloween Ghosts

Hello friends!  I hope you are having time to do something that you love.  I have been trying to make cards from the many card kits that I bought in the past 10+ yrs.  Do you ever wonder "What was I thinking?" when you look through your crafting stash to discover all the crafting items you bought and never used?  

Why did I think I needed all of those card kits and the extra embellishments for them?  I have so many Anna Griffin and Crafters Companion card kits in my closet and cabinets.  I didn't know how to create cards very well at the time I started buying them and I signed up for the monthly shipments; so I received a lot of them before I realized I didn't have time to use them.  Who needs 30 or 40 cards in a kit?  I am exhausted after just trying to create 10 of them.  Some of them take me 2 hrs. just to create one card!!!  

When CTMH closed it's doors, I decided it was time to stop buying and start using all the kits, paper, cardstock and other supplies that I already have.  The only thing I have bought since June, are adhesives, glue, etc.  

I am very grateful for everything I learned and experienced in the past 10+ crafting years.  I have met so many wonderful people and watched so many fabulous YouTube videos.  I would have never figured out how to color or create a card or scrapbook if not for all of you in blog land.

I have to take frequent breaks from the card kits; so I created this mini slimline card using two of the ghosts from Conie Fong Witch, Mummy, Vampire Boy and Ghost bundle.  I decided to create something other than Halloween with these cute little ghosts.  This card is a love card.  I am learning to create outside the box.  Lol!  I also created a birthday card for my great grandson with the cute ghost with the balloon.  Who says ghosts are only for Halloween?

You can also learn to draw all of these images at Draw With Conie on YouTube.  There are 2 bundles of Halloween doodles for you to draw or you can check some of them out on Etsy.  https://www.youtube.com/@DrawWithConie

  1. That is truly a cute Halloween card! I think it is way too common that us card makers/scrapbookers end up with so much stuff that it would take several life times to possibly use it! Thanks for sharing with us at the Paper Funday Challenge.
