Bat Shaped Card & 2015 Halloween Carved Pumpkin

Was inspired by Laurie of Crafty Sisters Creations to create this Bat shaped Halloween card. You can click here to see Laurie's card.

Hubby started carving the 2015 Halloween pumpkin Fri 10/23 and finished Sat afternoon 10/24. Originally had planned a different carving but changed to this Pirate Ship in background & in foreground Pirate Skeleton with Sword. I especially like the detail of the skeleton bones holding the sword on right side and Skull and Crossbones on the ship flag on left. Since hubby finished this carving quicker than he thought he would he is also carving another and I'll reveal that one when it is done.

This is a 9" black styrofoam pumpkin bought at Michaels. 

Daisy even got into the Pirate theme dressing up and posing next to our Pirate Skeleton near front door.
