My first postcard for the swap. 6" x 4" - I used Indian ink, colored pencils, markers, and embossing powder. The lettering, buckle, flames, cauldron broth and bubbles are all embossed with clear UTEE. The text reads: Hope you have 8X the fun this Halloween!.

More postcards for the swap. 4" x 6" - I used Indian ink, colored pencils, and markers. The text on the left side postcard reads: Even though Esmerelda had been turned into a duck ... she still loved candycorn. Have a Happy Halloween! |
