This is Halloween


This is my entry for a competition Party Invitations UK are currently running (it closes in a few days though!) called 'Spooky Scribbles'. The brief is to design a character which could be used on a Halloween party invite. I decided to create a character which would be suitable for a children's party, so hopefully I've managed to come up with something cute whilst still being a little spooky! I think the balloons are my favourite part, especially the ghost.

  2. I really love this, the balloons are the cutest! Your illustration would work well with the style of invitations they already do :) if I feel more energetic tomorrow afternoon than I do today, I might enter just for fun! I love drawing to guidelines set out for me (I think I'm probably quite lazy in that way!) xx

  3. Awwwwwwww. I think the ghost is my favourite part too! Kids would love this illustration, I've always said you'd made a great illustrator for children's books. Paws crossed for you! <3
