Spooky

 Hi everyone. The weekend has begun!  And if you stop by frequently you might remember it was a crazy week at my school; we call it spirit week, and it is now officially over. It is fun to see the kids dress up but I find it hard work to put together my own spirited outfits everyday. I am ready to go back to "normal" clothes. Ha-ha! Today was the pep rally which is something I don't like  as there is way too much screaming and noise.  But the kids love it,  and I can handle it since it's the only one we have all year. 

Go PHS!

Next week is back to real school days but first a couple of recharge days! Big smile on my face! I'm meeting up with my daughter to go visit my Mom tomorrow. Looking forward to that day out with her and also the company she will be on the drive.

And tonight I have another Halloween page for you. I've been having a lot of fun playing with my spooky supplies.

This page began with a cool sugar skull napkin that became the background. Then I added the painted flower skin which I made by painting on Yupo paper and then adding gloss soft gel. Once dry, the painting peels off and you can attach it to other pieces of art.  I also added some black heart die cuts (that I outlined) and finally a couple of paper ephemera pieces that I had.

I am linking my page up to a triplet of sites. First link is to Elke's challenge at Art Journal Journey where the theme is Landscapes of the Soul. And second of all I am linking up to Try It On Tuesday where the theme for a few more days is Halloween. And finally I am linking up to Moo Mania where the theme is also Halloween.

Happy start to your weekend.

Happy Halloween

Tonight is the night that witches go riding and corpses rise from their graves.

How about this moon shot?
Just needs a tiny black witch on a broom silhouette to make it perfect.

And here's another oldie from my blog.
Spooky cemetery for the skeletons to rise from.
I need to add one walking over the crest of that little ridge.
Just picturing a creature made of bones-old and brown and dirty bones at that-walking over the ridge towards the camera freaks me out a little bit.
So I found a few more Halloween artsy-crafty pieces that I haven't yet shown you. These are pieces I made but aren't quite sure I LOVE. They're not bad, and they're certainly good enough to posts, but they all need something I haven't figured out just what that is.Seems like today is a good day to show them off...

Here's a card. 

The Tattered Angels is shiny and it kind of glared in the photo. But it is so

Halloween.

The background die cut is from Die-Versions.

The candy image is from Crafty Secrets.

There's parts of this card I like and parts I don't like.

I love the spiders, candy, corn and pumpkins. I like the label, but this card needs something more.

Don't you think?

I just don't know what-and still don't know what.

Anyhow, I mailed it off to Katie at school so it is what it is.

And this from  my collage Halloween book that I showed you the other day. This book was made last year but needed some finishing. I love the pumpkin head...it is from Artistic Outpost.

Bats are all a Spellbinder's die.

I like how the spray background came out but I haven't shown you before because it looks too busy OR needs something to tie it all together.

More from that book-but not a very great photo. This page is a bit too kid like for me.. Think it is the ribbon.

And finally his candy tag from the same collage book.

I actually like this tag, and this is just the back of another tag-the witch one I showed you last week.

I like to put something simple on the backs of tags so when you pull them out you have something on both sides.

Trick or Treat!

You decide if these are tricks or actual treats.

Have a really spooky day everyone.
