Halloween at Fashionable Stamping

Hi folks, and a very warm welcome to my new followers, lovely to see you.

Its time for another new challenge at Fashionable Stamping, and this time we would like to see Halloween or Halloween colours on your project.  We are as usual sponsored by Marina of Cottage Crafts, and the winner will receive a gift cert to spend in their shop.

I chose to go with  colours and used Peeled Paint, Wild Honey, Weathered Wood and Dusty Concord on my tag. My moon was also stamped with Weathered wood.  The image is from Kanban's Jasper Steampunk set and coloured with Promarkers.  The grasses are from IndigoBlu Poppy Meadow.  I did stamp the Dress Stand, but unfortunately it was 'lost' in the grasses, so a quick improvise with the base of the TH Dress Form (makes her look like she's got thick legs -and a bit off centre in the photo, but I've just checked -  and they do line up on the tag)  Sentiment and birds are Tim Holtz.
My teamies have made some fabulous Halloween projects, so please do pop over to FSC and check them out.

I am entering this at:
  Challenge up your Life - Autumn/Halloween
  Stampin for the Weekend - Something Spooky
  Craftymess - Halloween
  Heck of a Challenge - Spooktacular
  Live & Love Crafts - Autumn/Halloween

Thats it for now, need to get organised.   DD is coming for lunch and then, hopefully a final decision on Wedding stationery,  I think I have made too many samples - too much choice!
Hope you all have a lovely Sunday.

Eyes Down for Bingo at FSC

The challenge over at Fashionable Stamping this week is   BINGO!   Unlike the game, we would like YOU to pick your line from the grid, that could be horizontal, vertical or diagonal.

For  my line I chose - Lace/Distressing/Buttons - although I must admit a couple of other options have somehow sneaked in there - but not in the right line!  I don't normally do tags, but since joining the 'team' over at FSC I have seen some fabulous tags which has inspired me to give them a try - as they say, and I really enjoyed making this. The image is a Crafty Individuals, cut to fit the tag, which was then torn and another piece of tag added (I did make a nice neat back to hide the tear).  The Dressmaker label on the bottom is cut from another CI  image.  I used Dusty Concord and Antique Linen to colour the tag and Promarkers for the ladies.

The rest of the team have made some amazing creations, so please pop over to FSC  and join in our game of BINGO!  But remember, we are a stamping challenge and must see at least one 'real'  stamp on your projects.

I am also entering  this in :

  Craft Room Challenge - Shabby/Vintage
  Crafty Ann's - Anything but a Card
  Totally Gorjuss - Anything Goes with a Button

Thats it for now, enjoy the rest of the weekend, hope the weather is as nice for you, as it is here.
