Tim Holtz Halloween Cards

Today, I had a little break from work, so I decided to grab all the Halloween Dies I keep buying and have some fun. So today, I have 3 Tim Holtz Halloween cards to share with you. I can’t resist Tim’s dies and every time I watch one of his lives, I’m in there buying (I’m sure you can relate, haha). I have had so many work commitments lately that there has been no time to play. That’s making me cranky, so it’s a play day. hope you like them.
