I’m not much into scary things. Actually I’m a total wimp around thrillers making Halloween not my favorite kind of celebration. That’s why I fell in love with the Cute Halloween Suite by Stampin’ Up! It’s all cute little pumpkins and ghosts, black cats and yes even friendly skulls. The sentiments in the stamp set are adorable and the fonts so fun.
