Freaker's Free for All

Quick post today.
This is for the Macabre Monday challenge at
Haunted Design House,
"Freaker's Free for All".
Basically, anything goes!

I chose to work with "Vamp Me" from our sponsor this week,
I used a Spica glitter pen to add sparkle to the Vampire and his
intended victim. Kinda sucks that the sparkle doesn't show in pics. 

I also used the headstone and the coffin from another
Tiddly Inks set called, "Vampire Extra pack".  
I adhered everything onto a large Spellbinder floral oval to
anchor all the elements.

Lastly, I added Stickled paper roses to finish it off.

That's it for me. Busy, busy, busy.
Less than 92 days until Hallowe'en!!

I'd like to enter this card in the current challenge at

Sparkle and Shine at Dilly Beans

It's Friday (the 13th), and it is time for another challenge at
This week we are sparkling and shining.

I used the Mummy and Pumpkin image.
So sweet and easy to color and create with too! 

The background paper is nice and shiny, and textured to appear
like mummy wrappings. Perfect!
I Stickled the c-rap outta the punkin and the spider webs.
Tres sparkly!!

Drop by the DB challenge blog and see what the rest of the DT
has cooked up this week.

Fabric and fibers @ Dilly Beans

Well, the calendar says it's Friday, but I'm still a bit off this week.

The Friday challenge at Dilly Beans is
fabric and fibers.
This was a challenge for me since I don't have much in the
way of fabric or notions in my crafting stash.
I knew I had some wall paper samples that were made of fabric,
but didn't find those until last night by accident. Too late.

I chose a sweet image for this week's challenge.
This is image #426 Hello Friend.
I colored the image to match the paper this time.
Very matchy-matchy for me.   

Here is proof that there actually is fabric on here somewhere.
I used a scrap of some fabric/paper I received in a scrap pack
I bought years ago. I frayed the edges to make it appear to be
more on the fabric side than the paper. I also frayed the ends
of my bow, but not sure if it just looks unintentional and messy.
I did add a bunch of glitter to make it all sparkly and to
distract from the wonky fabric I used.
Glitter fixes nearly everything. 

Fun challenge this week. Pushed me right out of my comfort zone.
Isn't that why it's called a challenge in the first place?
