Today is Halloween in New Jersey

 
Due to the storm, Our Governor has declared today, the official day of Halloween, for our young, trick or treaters who missed out.
  There are still so many without power, heat, etc.  The devastation and loss keeps unfolding, everyday. 
 However,  there is a strong sense of community and a spirit of positive productivity that keeps us moving forward to preserve and restore what we have come to love about New Jersey and New York's coast line.  
  I for one, will be glad to see the children come to my door with a smile on their faces.
So here is a Thank you card that I made for my friend who gave an awesome Halloween Party, just in the knick of time... My husband won the "best costume prize"
He was the mad hatter and I was the queen of hearts.


My card was made using a Simply Betty Digi stamp and the couch was another digi that I bought as a salon set.  (I hate when I don't label when I save them)  I think the company was called Sassy Digital Stamps.  Not to be confused with http://sassystudiodesigns.blogspot.com/.  They are one of my favorites with the best "girl friend/celebrity inspired images.
 I will try to find out if anyone needs it.. They also had great background images with salon elements and I also bought another one from them that had red capet and movie set images.. they were fabulous!
My papers were from DCWV and the embellishments were from TJ max...
  I bought a crafters companion when I saw how beautiful Louise of http://myworld-marie-louise.blogspot.com/ made her cards and envelopes...I made my first "envelobox"
I need some practice, but it was fun and fit the card perfectly.
Here is the inside:
