Inspired By #192 - Who's your Boo?

 

Yes, I know there is an adorable Christmas prompt this week, too!

But, since she was a tiny girl, and Monsters Inc. released, my granddaughter Lola has been called Boo!  Now, with a title like this,  how could this Grammy resist making her a Halloween card this week?  See if you can find my inspiration[s].


Yes.  I am the old bat.  Grampy is the ghost - for reasons we won't get into.  And since Boo's eyes disappear just like this when she smiles big, we'll just say
that is a very silly version of her!  

Now, will you be bewitched by Halloween, or catch that cute Christmas vibe?  We'll love either, you know that's a sure thing!
=]  Michele

Supplies: 
EH Happy Haunting stamps and dies, Pumpkin to Talk About, Snow Days [for the fences]
Waffle Flower Craft Rustic Rainbow dies for the gas clouds
Wplus9 4 Bar Stitched rectangle dies

She is going to love it Michele, what a wonderful personalised card.... but I will have to say that I don't think you are 'bat like' at all lol.

Totally saw your inspiration, Michele, and the card is so cute and special. Mine are all done so I'm picking one to enter but it's not light and airy like the inspiration photo.

The watercolored background makes your boo look fantastic!

OMGosh, this card is darling! Your not an old bat, but it is still cute. lol I love the little die cuts you used, they are perfect and look like the ones in the inspiration photo. The light wash of color is unexpected and fun! I love that your granddaughter is called boo, so cute, so the sentiment is perfect for her. Love this! Hugs, Brenda
