Time for a New Challenge

Hi everyone. Happy Tuesday. That means it's time for another challenge at Try It on Tuesday.

    But first let me thank Kath for being our guest designer, and also say a big thanks to all of you who joined our Autumn Magic challenge. There were so many beautiful pieces for this challenge it's going to be hard to get consensus on a top 5 I think. 😏

Today our new challenge starts. This time our theme is Halloween, which is another favorite of mine.


     This time I pulled out a lot fun and cute monsters and ghouls from from stamp collection and made page with some fun trick or treaters or perhaps instead of trick or treating it's Halloween party time. I love how the actual ghosts on my page have scared faces. 😏

     I started by painting the background midnight blue and once that dried I stamped some text. I stamped, colored and fussy cut all these creatures. They are  from a several different companies (Gerda Steiner, Stamping Bella, Tim Holtz, Picket Fence, Rubber Baby Bumpers, Inkadinkado and Posh Limited). The quote is also stamped.

   Our Halloween challenge runs for the next 2 weeks, so I hope you're feeling spooky or playful. Be sure to check out the other designers ideas because with this challenge, there are so many ways to go.

    I am also linking up to Alison's Autumn Colors  and Inspiration at Art Journal Journey since Halloween is an autumn holiday. Please remember that at AJJ we only accept forms of art journaling, no cards, tags, ATC's etc. But at Try It on Tuesday we accept all forms of art.
