Monster In The Closet Swap

I just participated in Zan's latest swap and have mailed my little monster soon to be arriving to his new home. His name is Josef and he is a Knob. What is a Knob you make ask, well here is their story:

Knobs were once happy little creatures traveling through time. After the darkness came, they were banished to an unseen portal that lies within your closet. The Knobs derive a twisted joy from implanting nightmares while you sleep - a devilish habit thwarted only by the skeleton key lashed to their neck. As long as the key remains in place, they are dormant. If the key is ever untied, the spell is broken and you will never know another night's rest.
























To see more monsters made for the swap, please visit the Monster Mash Parade.
Thanks Zan!

Happy Halloween Blog Party

The council has come together. They have been awaiting your arrival for the great Halloween feast about to take place.


Please take your seat and enjoy the delicacies that will be offered.


The Great Pumpkin has ordered all to enjoy the feast as he will dine on nuggets of bran. He is somewhat of a health nut and seems to have power control issues.


Junior and Elvis have been fortunate in that their lives are filled with joy and the gift of silliness. They can enjoy whatever comes their way including the wonderful treats that are bestowed upon them.


Farmer Brown and Lydia have not been as fortunate as they are both in search of what they do not have. Farmer Brown lost his hands in a barn accident and Lydia lost her eyes but we do not speak of that as it only brings bad memories of what happened one dark night.


After the food had been scavenged, the table was cleared and we can now contemplate a Halloween of past while visiting friends.

The crow and rat have deemed a successful feast has been accomplished. They wish everyone a safe journey onto the next party {A Fanciful Twist} and would like to leave you with this:

Needle Felted Heart and Thank You's

This is a quickie post as I will be off for a few days so I wanted to get this in. First, I needle felted an Americana heart onto wool felt that I've put into a shadowbox. The shadow box was painted and crackled to give it a little bit of an aged look. I am donating this and another item for an auction which is for a family fund. Most of the proceeds they receive will go to their church.























Next I have a few thank you's for thinking of me and passing on some awards. I received the Kreativ Blogger Award from Marzel of The Play of Light and Shadow and Michelle of The Studio at Crow Haven Farm.



Also, I received the Scribbler Award from Denise of DLynne Artdolls.

I apologize for not following the rules as I'm really bad at that but wanted to make sure they know I do appreciate them sending the awards my way. Many thanks to Marzel, Michelle and Denise. Please visit their sites as they are very talented artists and you will find something of interest when you see their blogs.

I will be posting again soon as I have many WIP's scattered around. Some almost done and some that need a lot of work but they will have to wait until I get back.
