    It’s so hard to pick a favorite, they’re all beautifully spooky! I love cats and color so number 4 is great! But then, I’m also a sucker for a great ole haunted house, so number 1 and number 3 both grab me! And who can resist the pull of the moon on number 2 ?!?

  • Angela Stone

    I can’t wait to sink my claws into the new releases. The Halloween stuff looks wonderfully spooky! Love all the gorgeous inspiration!

  • janine harris

  • Manetta Kanefsky
