Last weekend I taught the first of my two Halloween card classes at our local scrapbook store.  This is the first bridge card I ever made and it will not be the last! When I saw it all I envisioned was a spooky village! 

I used Authentique Papers and Elizabeth Craft Designs Village Edges Die. The die is pictured as a Christmas die. What do you think? Halloween YES???

The card lays flat and will fit in an envelope!
