I was in a little panic because I was really running low on the paper
I have been using for most of my Halloween cards 
seriously I LOVE this paper
My Mind's Eye Halloween Scary Sparkles
I was at AC Moore on Saturday 
and oh JOY there was a whole stack
confusion set in should I buy one or more?
Settled for one but the little voice in my head 
keeps saying to go get more...

Hope Nothing goes bump in your night
