We're Having "Autumn Fun" at Mo's . . .

Hey there my sweet friends! How "arrrgghhh" you doing this week! hehehe! I couldn't resist!! Yeppers, it's Thursday again . . . and that means it's time for another fun challenge at Mo's DP2 Challenge Blog! This week's theme is . . .
"Autumn Fun"
I tell ya, Autumn has always been my favorite time of year. I love seeing all of the fall colors . . . golds and reds and oranges . . . not to mention black and purple! That's right . . . one of the "funnest" things about Autumn is seeing all the little "Trick or Treaters"!! (I can't wait to see what our six grandkiddos will be wearing for "Trick or Treat" night! I promise to share pics when I get them!!) Soooo . . . with that little intro . . . here's my "Autumn Fun" card . . .

It's "Pirate Kai" . . . and he's available HERE in Mo's old online store. Ohhh . . . if you want any of Mo's "older" images (like this adorable little Pirate Kai), be forewarned, Mo is closing her "old" online shop later this year! So, you'd better hurry! HERE is the link. Would you like to see an extreme close-up of this little sweetheart? Of course you would (I went a little nuts with my camera this week!!) . . .  
Isn't he just a sweet as can be? Now . . . it's been ages and ages since I've made a "traditional" easel card . . . so that's just what I did!!
I'd forgotten how much fun these can be . . . and so easy! Here's an easy tutorial.
