Penny Black Halloween - Booo

Good morning ladies and gents if there is any reading this and welcome. On this cold Manchester morning i have a nice furry picture for you. I love Halloween and think I never grew up. Last year was gutted didnt have the kids so couldnt go trick or treating. Got my pumpkin in the kitchen ready to carve. Well enough of my dribble here is my card for today.

The image is a penny black stamped 3 times coloured with promarkers and then glossed. Chalked the edges of the image and mounted on black, purple and silver. Brown paper has green writing about pumpkin and halloween and the purple has small bats on. Both are downloads and sorry cant remember from where. Black bats and ghosts are from a very old punch i recently found tucked in a cupboard. Boo is stamped using white brillience with See D stamps. Black velevet ribbon to finish.

I am entering this in the following blog challenges.
