Happy Halloween Birdhouses

Good Afternoon! 
 
I created a Halloween card to enter into the Challenges at Scrapy Land, Halloween and Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes!
 
I guess I was bored with making traditional Halloween cards and decided to do something a bit different.  Hope you like it.
 
 
 
I used the MFT dies; Stitched Traditional Tags and Party Banner.  Paper Smooches dies; Bird Houses and Stitched Hills.  Impression Obsession Birds die.  Sentiment from Papertrey Ink, Friendship Jar Fall FillersPerfect Plum ink.

 
Halloween Designer Papers as well as Glitter Papers in Purple and Orange.  Orange Gingham Ribbon, Baker's Twine, and Stickles for accents. 
 
The birds are now Ravens and in 5 weeks they will be Red Cardinals lol  Gotta love that!!!
 
Thanks for coming by!
 
Enjoy~~

  7. How stinkin' cute. I would never have thought to do the bird houses, you are a genius!! Love the checked background too, and then the purple at the bottom to break up the black and orange. What a wonderful card, especially with the birds.

  9. That is so cute and a great design that ventures away from the traditional pumpkins, witches and ghosts. Those bird houses are so very cute and I love your banner too. And, gingham is always a "win" with me.

  11. Love the purple hills and checked sky. The bird houses with the tiny birds are so cute. The banners really work here too. Well done.

  12. Donna, you are so clever with all the dots and checks! Who would ever have put that black and white checkered background with rolling slimy-purple hills, and an orange checkered ribbon (what would your card be without a ribbon?), and then those fabulous dotted flags as banners! Almost like a haunted bird open house event! That sliver of a pumpkin matting, and the pretty interior make your card really pop! How clever, and how ORIGINAL in every way! I love it! hugs, de
