Let's Try This Blog Thing Again

I've tried this several times and haven't carried it out very well, usually due to lack of time, but I'll try it again.  I'd like to post cards that I make in my workshops but also cards that I see on other people's blogs that I like or think my customers might be interested in.   So let's give this a go :-)

First off is a Halloween card.  The first card is a CASE of someone else's card. I've looked high and low for the original but can't find it.  I'd love to give credit and if I ever find it I'll post the original link here, but for now here my card.
