31 Days of Halloween - Day 30

Hello folks, and it’s day 30  of the Smeared and Smudged 31 days of Halloween Blog Hop.  All you have to do to take part is to hop through each of the Wicked Blogs that are participating and leave a comment on each project.  All Horrifying Hoppers will receive a Survival Button at the end of the month to proudly post on their blog.


If you’re following the blog hop in order, you’ve arrived here from Teresa’s blog.    If you’ve arrived from elsewhere and you’d like to work your way through all the participating blogs, the blog roll is in the sidebar – just start at the beginning or wherever suits you best.


Here's today's offering -





These little pop-up box cards are very popular at the moment.   I've covered the sides of the box with paper from Graphic 45's Steampunk Spells (my favourite collection - I bought three sets, one to use, one to cherish, and one just in case) The black cat is a Movers & Shapers die covered with black Distress glitter, the moon was painted yellow and covered with clear Distress glitter (I don't have any yellow) and the ghosts are cut out of white parchment.

Everything is stuck onto acetate (packaging material) using double-sided adhesive sheet.  I'd've used my Xyron if I'd remembered where I left it.  The spooky trees that you can just see in the background are the Clarity split tree (I get a lot of use out of that stamp) and the Happy Halloween is a very old All Night Media sentiment (coloured orange with alcohol markers as I didn't have any orange embossing powder).


Hope you are enjoying the hop.  Don't forget that Scavenger Items will be hidden randomly on the Wicked Blogs, and are not guaranteed to be available every day. You will have to visit blogs to find them. If you find one, you will email and let us know exactly where it was and your name will go into that scavenger item's drawing. Each person who finds the "hidden" picture will get one entry. The drawing for each scavenger prize will be the day after it was posted and winners will be chosen by random number based on who emailed. Thank you for visiting.  Now, if you’re working your way through the roll, it’s on to Renee.  Bye now!

That Steampunk Spells paper is my favorite. Most of my favorites are G45.
Wonderful ghostly box.
It brings to mind the song This Is Halloween.
