October! Halloween ATCs! Freebies!

Hello Friends!

I am playing in ArtJoyStuff's ATC swap,

the theme of which is "Masked Beauty".

I love Art Deco Halloween images

and thought this one would fit the theme just right:

I used some spidery paper as the background and
edged the card with washi tape.

I made each one a bit different, just cuz.

 

Yay!

It's October!!

 

 Another reason I like October is because it is my birthday month!

And that means guilt-free shopping all month long ;)

Here are some Art Deco freebies for your own use:

I have also been busy crafting for the many Halloweeen swaps I am in.

Since I know these have already been received,
here are the two altered matchboxes I made for
Heather's Speckled Egg Curiosities Swap:



The top window and scattered holes in the house are illuminated by tucking one of those flickering tealights inside...
very cute and spooky effect!



And some of the goodies contained within:


I received two fabulous matchboxes from my swap partners, and will try to post those tomorrow!

Please visit Pink Saturday for a lovely pink eyecandy!

Have a great weekend!!

Pink Saturday, Sunsets and Blackout and Freebies

Happy Pink Saturday and Welcome new followers! And everyone :)

Strange goings on in Southern California...
First, there was RAIN on Labor Day :O
Followed by a week of 100 degree temperatures and 90 degree humidity!
It did make for some lovely warm Summer evenings
and for beautiful sunsets like this:







Oh yes, and then the Blackout!



I felt so cut off from the rest of the world...the radio in my car didn't work because the radio stations didn't have power...my cell phone didn't work even though it's WiFi...our phones are on electric chargers, and because they were out of juice we couldn't use those...so we really had no idea as to the extent of the outage or when it would be fixed...



We still can't use water from the faucet without boilng it for one minute.

Here's a couple of images to get you started on your Halloween crafting:

Have a great weekend, and visit Pink Saturday to view some lovely pinkness.
