My Dad was a lover of western movies, so he was very aware of Tombstone, Arizona and the shootout at the OK Corral.  He often said, “If I don’t watch out, I am going to end up in Boothill.”  I always remembered that, so it was a special thrill for me to be able to actually see Boothill Graveyard.

Tombstone is a little over the top, but I enjoyed pretending to be living in 1881 for a few hours.  My layout of Boothill was designed to be as fun and lighthearted as Tombstone itself.

I gave myself points for being able to use an old Tim Holtz gravestone die for the Journal card, tucked in the top of the first layout………………………double points actually………………because I used it on a non Halloween themed layout as well.  These are the things I do to justify my rather large stash!
