31 Days of Halloween 2014 - Day 14

It's just one of those days when you are crafting outside, enjoying the last of the fall colours when a frog lands on your project, dies, and then dissolves into a skeleton.  I mean what are you supposed to do but "keep calm and craft on"?

Paper: K&Company "brenda walton BW haunted specialty"
Distress ink: Tim Holtz "peeled paint", Adirondack "meadow" and "lettuce"
Stamp ink: Versafine: "vintage sepia"
Circles: end of a straw pressed on stamp pad and then on tag
Jewel brad: American Crafts Elements

  13. Funny you should mention frogs as I had an encounter this morning on my walk when I tried to have a drink at the bubbler and Kermit himself popped out of the drain to say hi!! I have a phobia of them, so the whole park knew I was there. Love your skelly though, and the beautiful green tag on kraft :)
