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.
