One Stop Craft Challenge

Morning all - happy Saturday to you.
It's time for a new challenge at OSCC and this week our theme is 
Hallowe'en
We're sponsored this week by Kenny K who very kindly gave the DT some images to play with.
And look, who would have thought a WOW Hallowe'en card.... yes, you know how I like to do things a little differently ;)
The idea for this came to me in a flash during a conversation with Cathy. Not sure why, we weren't talking about Hallowe'en or Mummies or Crafting or anything like that. Usually when I have an idea though I don't act on it and then for the life of me, can never remember what the idea was in the first place!  


Challenges I'd Like to Enter
Digital Tuesday - Hallowe'en
The Paper Shelter - Hallowe'en
Papercrafting Journey - Ribbon or Twine
Di's Digi Downloads - Hallowe'en

Thanks for dropping by today. Please pop on over to OSCC to see what the rest of my lovely teamies have come up with for this challenge, I know you're going to love them!
I'm off to the SECC again today, to meet up with Cathy and hopefully Anda and Louise. Am going to try not to buy anything today ;)
Hugs. Susan xxx

Good Morning Susan, Well this made me chuckle, both the end effect which is all great and the thought of being seen wrapping a card in bandages. Love it, xx Flora

Hi Susan this is a fab card wish I had waited for this image. Love the way you have wrapped the card to look like bandages.Would have popped up the motorway to the SECC if I was not coming up in a couple of weeks to visit family.

This is inspired, Mrs M! The "bandag" is a brilliant idea and it's perfect for this image. Seriously... you're going to try not to buy anything today? I could have spent loads more, but the cash point ran out of money and the other ATM charged £1.70 for me to take extra funds out. I ended up with 2 Memory Box dies, 2 LotV stamps, and quite a few bits from Anna Marie Designs, including some beautiful gingham card. Did you see that stand? Mostly plain card packs but some gorgeous bits and bobs. She does lovely templates so I'm tempted to get the birdhouse one. See, I'm still spending money and I'm not even there! It was great to see you again. xx

Must learn to spell before I go back to school on Monday... "bandage" with an "e". x
