Eyeballs in a Jar Card

Halloween cards are so much fun to make!  They can be fun, scary, creepy, gross, or just downright inappropriate.  Yet, given the nature of the holiday, all of these approaches are completely acceptable.  In pondering additional approaches to the Jars of Joy Challenge over at Moxie Fab World, I thought I would combine jars with Halloween.  

I opted for the more fun and cute googly eyes for this card, but you could easily make it gross by adding eyeballs with more, uh, color.  I used the print and cut feature in Silhouette Studio to create the card. 

Although the jar card is not round, the label arches over the front of the card giving the card more dimension.  The labels are from Pebbles Tricks & Treats collection.

I knew my stash of googly eyes would come in handy at some point!

All of this Halloween talk reminds me that I need to start getting costumes together for this year?  What are you going to be for Halloween?
