A Halloween Shrine

Oh how I wish this picture showed up better. 

You can barely see the Rickety Haunted house with skeletons dancing inside,

tree, fence and graveyard. The top has a candelabra,

an owl in a window and a skull- all with the appropriate spider webs.

A Halloween shrine made from foam core board for a swap.

My partner has already received it.

Now off to visit you all!

Dr Coffin's Apthocary Cabinet

 I know everyone is super excited to do Laura's Apothecary

event coming up later this month.

In the mean time.....

Need a little more inspiration?

I used all but one stamp from Oxford Impressions

New DR. Coffin's Apothecary stamp set

to create my Apothecary shoppe

I like to think my art tells a story. Follow me around the shoppe

and you'll see what the Old Dr's been up to.

Dr. Coffin and his latest patient victim

 

Mixing his concoctions.

Wonder what he has in mind?

The poor grieving widow....

What skeletons he must have in his closet.

Have a Spooktacular crafty Halloween !!!!

Tag Challenge-Poe

I haven't played in a challenge in quite some time

 but when I saw Tim Holtz's tag challenge using the metal tape background and

 Simon Says Stamp and Show

where the challenge is Read all about it..

I decided to combine the two and use the raven stamp from

Oxford Impressions new stamp sheet.Apothecary

and the Poe stamp from Oxford Impressions. Haunted stamp sheet.

to create my Halloween inspired tag.

Checking off another one on my to do list. LOL

P.S. Finally have my email back! YEAH!!!!!

The Witches Wardrobe

I've been having so much fun playing with the NEW release from

Oxford Impressions Dr. Coffin's Apothecary stamp set.

This started out as a Christmas ornament I picked up at a yard sale 

painted it black and hubby helped me create the wire skirt.

Stamped up the images, bats and crows and

added a tulle cape and black velvet hat stamped

with embossed stars and moons from the 

Masquerade set

Oxford Impressions

added the stamped bats under her skirt.

of course every witch needs her cat handy.
