Chunky ATC's

Well, here it is October 31st and after tonight, 

I will no longer be making creepy stuff.

It's just not fair

Sigh.

I'll show you the last of my 2012 Halloween extravaganza

.The raven and witch's hat (a real one!) on top

 The fence

And the side

And I also made one using metal flashing tape for the base.

I LOVE that Tim Holtz blood spatter stamp.

You can see the metal better from the side.

Allright.  There are no more Halloween projects in my damp, musty storeroom.

I'm really done now.

Happy Halloween!

Until next year....................

Eerie ATC's

Here are the ATC's I made for the Unruly Paper Arts Eerie ATC swap:

and one for a Tim Holtz Addicts group I'm in:

OK, one more day and we're done.

I don't know what I'm going to do.

Creature Feature

is the theme at 

Jingle Belles right now.

They rock, you know.

So I asked myself,

"Self?" 

That's what I call myself.

"Self?  What kind of creatures are in your Christmas stash??"

And I found these.

They look like creatures to me.

(Heaven only knows what possessed me to buy that stamp.)

Naughty or Nice?

You decide.

I think we;'re almost done with Halloween for the year.

So sad.

Gothic Marie

I simply have to show you the Gothic Marie Antoinette ATC's 

I received the other day for

the Blissful ATC swap.

Aren't they wonderful!  If you lift up the skirt of the 

one in the middle, she has a little garter belt underneath.  tee hee

They are from Karla Jackson and I love them!!

Halloween continues...

I made a banner.

Ever since my friend Rosemary posted a luscious banner on her blog,

I've been making them too.

It's worthy noting that there are no children in my home, just me.

Look at my mantle.

I know, it's pitiful, isn't it.  :-)

Here's the banner.

Please keep in mind that for some unexplainable reason,

I bought a whole pad of Halloween paper and embellies last year at Mikey's for, 

like, 90% off.

I couldn't help myself.

So I HAD TO make this thing.

Anyhoo...

I know what you're thinkig. 

"Does she have a life?"

Well I do.

And I used about an hour or so of said life to make this for the mantle:

OK, 

I'm done.

Until tomorrow.

Bwhahaaaaaa!!!!!!

The End is Near!

I haven't made anything for my Everything Wendy Vecchi group for far too long, 

so I decided to play along with the current challenge:

The theme is

Freaky, Creepy and Weird.

What do you think?

All stamps are by Wendy Vecchi.

(duh)

You know how you wake up in the morning

with all sorts of good intentions

and the day just kind of goes to the dogs?

Well, that's been my day.

BUT

I got some terrific photos...

But I digress.

What I meant to show you is this

and it is for both

Sunday Postcard Art

and

Friday Foto Collage

Thanks for stopping by!

Wings

I am delighted to tell you that I have been asked to create a piece for this week's

Take a Word Challenge 

Woo Hoo!!

The theme is 

 WINGS

So I have to admit, I made two pieces 

and then struggled for a few days on which one to send.

This is the first:

Elements used are by Lisa's Altered Art, Bonnie Zeiman,and Bleuesse  

Here is the second one that I eventually chose:

 Elements used are by Amanda Frijo-Tobin, Annequins,

Studio Rosey Posey, Bonnie Zeiman and Shadowhouse Creations.

I loved this challenge!!

Now mosey on over to 

Take A Word 

to see all the wonderful talent that has taken flight! 

Have you ever been to a Zombie Walk?

I have.

I need a break from Halloween

just for a moment.

Elements used are all by

RianDesign

Thanks for looking.

We'll be scary again soon.

Art With No Boundaries

I haven't posted for quite a while.

Been sick with a cold and have been trying to sleep it away.

However, I do have a bunch of Halloween art that I've made 

and time is running out to post it!

The first is a piece I've done for

Art With No Boundaries

This wasn't easy to photograph, but I've done the best I could.

I tried to make something scary...

but not TOO scary

If you know me at all, you'll know that I am 

TERRIFIED

of spiders.

So, I used a purple spider made out of Christmas bells.

 It's behind the creepy butterfly.

I could handle that spider.

And of course it needed to light up for nighttime...

and finally, 

What's Halloween without a little

sparkle?

The skeletons are an earring I bought is some Loonie store.  

It's not like I would wear it.

So are you scared?

I hope so.

There is an abundance of creepy creations at

Art With No Boundaries

If you're not a sissy, be sure to visit.

And thanks for stopping by here!

Something Wicked

this way comes...

Roses

This is for this week 's

Take A Word

challenge.

But where are the roses?  you ask.

The background is solid roses, a few layers of them,  and of course the 

adorable little girls (who are by Fidlette) have their own roses.

Voila!

And no, there is NOT a prize for finding them all.

All roses, everywhere, are by the Gilded Bee.

Now hurry over to

Take a Word 

and check out all the roses there!

Thanks for coming by on this fine snowy (here, at least) Sunday!

I Leaf It Up To You!

Challenge #142 at

The Order of the Opus Gluei

Sweet Poobah Rosemary has invited us to

 create something either with a

HALLOWEEN

Easy-Peasy, right? It can be scary, funny, 

vintage, spooky, or can even enlist the

 help of your neighbourhood trick-or-treaters!

or a

"LEAFY" 

theme.

Rosemary  says "feel free to express your creativity with the use of a leaf or leaves.  

Doesn't have to be autumn leaves, since not everyone is experiencing fall right now 

but let's see what happens when you "'leaf' it up."

Here's mine:

 I used elements from Miki Furkel, 

Amanda Fraijo-Tobin, and Jofia Devoe

And I AM thankful for a whole lot of things.

I'll see you there:
