"Happy Halloween-ish"


This challenge was posted on 11 October and is the third in this four week competition. As not everyone is into Halloween, this challenge allowed us to just apply Halloween colours such as orange/black/purple if we wished. The only rule being that a Charmed Download be used.

As I was preparing a crafty birthday party for Emmy (her request) and, as she wants to go Trick or Treating this year, I thought this would be an ideal opportunity to make a party gift bag!!


One Little Witch



I used one of the images from Pixie Chicks Collection1 and snipped off her wings!! The flower in her hair didn't really fit the theme so I improvised with a spider/hat using four pieces of black wool sewn to a black button. A light smattering of glitter was applied to her clothing.

RECIPE

Black Paper - my stash
Template - Papermania
Cobweb Papers - DCWV
Ribbon - Doodlebug
Orange Frilly Thing - my stash
Broomstick Stamp - Woodware
Colouring Medium - watercolour pencils and copics
