Halloween is coming!

I have a couple Halloween cards to share today and both were made with free digital images. This cute little bat is a pre-colored digi from Fimolas-arts. I love colored digis, because I can put a card together in no time at all! For this I used Labels eighteen die cuts, and stamped a little tag for the sentiment. The pumpkin border was done with an EK punch and all I had to add was a little piece of ribbon! Quick and easy!
And this adorable image is from Marlene of Disguised As A Grownup. She made a few of these "nerdy kids" Halloween images, but this was my favorite. I think she's the cutest little thing! I embossed the green galore piece with a spider web ef from SU! and used the EK pumpkin punch for the border. She was colored with Copics and I added some yellow stickles to the kitty's eyes. The spider-web ribbon and orange trim were from my stash, and the sentiment is from a SU! set. Marlene offers a lot of free digi images for 24 hours, so if you like this one, head on over and become a follower so you won't miss out on future freebies!
That's it for me today, so have a happy Wednesday and thanks for stopping by!

Awww...I LOVE that pumpkin border! Both your cards are incredibly adorable, but I'll have to be biased and say I REALLY love the second one! Teehee!

If anyone is interested, that little nerdy witch girl is now available at Squigglefly.

Thanks for showcasing her!
