Time for Some Halloween Art


For me, Halloween is about laughter and playfulness on a crisp fall evening.

My way of celebrating my favorite season and holiday is to create. I made a variety of pieces around the theme of vintage Halloween games that was recently published in the Summer 2015 issue of The Stamper's Sampler. I hope that you enjoy these pieces and that they will inspire your vintage and Halloween muse!
