I saw your posting on DorothyL and thought I'd check out the stamp. It looks to be a nice one and I'll certainly be grabbing up a bunch of these come January. As someone who routinely sends Halloween cards and other types of spooky mail, this is going to be a lot of fun. Thanks for the head's up!
Your welcome. I'll be grabbing a lot of these too!
