Pals Halloween Hop - Trick or Treat!

2013octhop_badge





Welcome to the Pals Halloween Hop!  No tricks - just treats for you today!

If you hopped here from Beth's blog you are right on track!

That's the flower base from Summer Silhouettes peeking out from under the witch hats below.  I thought it made the perfect creepy crawly creature to match the sentiment from Halloween Bash. What was the creepiest creature you ever were for Halloween?  My mother dressed me up once as an organ grinder.  She stuck a fake mustache on me, handed me my accordion with a tin cup stuck to it and tied our little poodle to the strap.  Our little poodle found the whole thing very creepy for sure..........and yes I played the accordion.......






My Halloween Treat for you is the following blog candy.  If you'd like to be included in the blog candy draw leave a comment with your e-mail included (US only) and you might be the lucky winner!  My blog candy includes the Halloween card below and elements to create one similar to it!  There is the Fright Night stamp (gently used), 24 6x6 sheets of Halloween colored DSP, glitter brads, and ribbon.  Fun stuff!





Now head on over to Sherrie's blog to see what treats she has in store!

I played the accordion! Still do, sometimes, but never used it for a Halloween costume - very clever - and your creatures are very clever, too, and CUTE!

LynnsLocker said...

Oooooh....I love your witches. Another cute, fresh and unique idea! I can't get enough of that witches hat. I have fussy cut a lot of them and wish there was a punch for it. Love your stories too. Such a fun addition to your blog. My Mom always dressed me up as something cute! She always tried to hide scary stuff from me and I won't watch a horror movie ever! It is fun seeing everything on paper tho'. Thanks for sharing! Lynn G. dodge3670ataoldotcom

Very cute little creepy crawlies! I think the weirdest thing my mother ever dressed me like was Smurfette. It sounds cute, but all the blue makeup was actually kind of creepy! Thanks for the chance to win some blog candy!
