...just...in time!



Just squeezing in by the skin of my teeth here!!! Been up to my ears in envelopes and tissues (last weekend's release and the back-to-school virus, ugh!)

I love Blog Waltz and so don't like to miss it, but what to make? what to make?....

Aha! the old standby - luminaries!!! Simple pimple! Seriously - Take one stamp - the gothic window from Midnight Feast! Stamp it 4 times in a row on vellum - I used linen textured vellum from PTI, fabby stuff. I trimmed out all my windows in a long row and stuck the ends together!! see??? literally seconds of work!!

ok, so it won't blow your mind compared to some of the fabby Halloween creations I have peeped at today but at least I get to join in!! LOL! Here's where to look:


ooh and Lisa and the girls are running a competition!!!Check it out!

NOTE!!! Battery tea lights ladies!!!!Please!

Right, off to snoop around and catch up on what I've missed!



Hope it tickles!

    I saw the ones you made last year, and made one using a bat stamp I had (before I had yours, of course)... it's been sitting on my craft table the last couple of weeks, and I kept thinking I wanted to re-visit yours... and here you are!! :)

    Now I see why you needed darkness :)
    Very pretty. And I love how simple it is. It lets the beautiful stamp speak for itself
    Thanks for sharing

    So pretty and now I can understand why you said it had to be dark to take the picture. Hope you get better soon.

    Easy peasy - maybe for you! I wouldn't even have thought of it but this is a stellar way to use up some vellum I've had kicking around! Love it!!
