Gecko Galz Monthly Gothic Challenge Dream Catcher

 Hello,

Wanted to drop my entry here for the Gecko Galz Monthly Gothic Challenge, host over at Gecko Galz Blog. There is always a free image given every month for you to create with! Come join in the fun!



I used a small hoop from 1.25 store, covered it with jute, hot glued my image creation on the back of the hoop and threaded some mixed string on the bottom for texture. I punched holes in the bottom of the hoop, I used a cropadille, but I bet I hole punch would work too. 

Thanks got stopping by,

This Halloween Challenge Blog

 Hello,

Oooo, my favorite holiday is right around the corner! Halloween! The one time of a year I truly can be myself with no judgement!

My project for this month is a bit different, however I love how it turned out! Let me know what you think.

Get your craft on and craft a Halloween or Gothic project and join us at This Is Halloween 31 challenge blog

I love using found items in my crafting! The paper glitter skull came in a box of goodies when I participated in a flea market swap!  I found the ring  at the $ 1.25 Store, 2 to a pack!

I combed my ribbon boxes for ribbon, and found the cute orange trim I used around the ring, and the sparkly mesh fabric was in my junk box! 





Happy Halloweem

 Hello, 

It my turn up on the Arty Diva Blog to share some inspiration, using what I have! It is always a good thing to make use of any supplies one has! I have to use, so I can buy more! LOL

Using what I had, die cuts, digi images and loads of scrapbooking card stock, I crafter there bookmarks, which make me smile!

Check em out!!



These came together pretty easily and quickly, perfect little gift for a friend, a reader, and a random act of kindness!!
