Macabre Monday #033 - Freaker's Free-for-All

By -
HDH Macabre Monday Rules:
1. Create a dark and macabre SOMETHING (card, scrap page, altered item, whatever) that follows the specific Macabre Monday challenge given. Cutesy is fine, but creepy is better :)
2. You have until the following Sunday night @ 5pm central time to post your creation and please leave a direct-link back here.
3. If you upload to any online galleries (TACPCC, S&S, PCP, SCS, etc.), please tag the title using HDH033.
4. Weekly giveaways!  Some weeks will be loaded with loot, others not-so-much... but the thrill is in the win, right?!  Some prizes shall be by random drawing, others hand picked... and I'm not telling you ahead of time :)
5. I'll be selecting a weekly Gruesome Twosome (my top two favorite creations) from all the players. At the end of every month these will be compiled and a Master of Macabre will be selected. He/she will be asked to be a guest blogger for the following month, if they so wish, and receive a little giftie from me... this could be stamp sets, handmade items, papers, halloweenie embellishments... you just never know.

Ok, my little pretties... your challenge this week:
Freaker's Free-for-All

 You are to create a dark, Gothic, or Halloween page, project or card using whatever the hell ya' want!!  That's right, baby... a true free-for-all... no rules... no suggestions... no limits :)  I can't wait to see the variety of entries this week... they should be off the hook!

I probably won't get to mine this week, dammit... I've got a TON of stuff to do... and ya' wanna know what sucks even worse?  Lookie at what came in the mail on Friday:

Yeah, that's right... my order from Stampotique!  AND guess what else showed up...

My awesome winnings from Smeared Ink!  I know!  

So you are wondering what the sucky part is, right?  Well, I don't get to play with any of these yet :(  waaahhhhhhh 

Far too much to do with little time to do it... hmmm... maybe I should call in sick...

Can't we all do with a month of extra days. Just to play. Just for ourselves... Oh the thought alone makes me drool. Anyway, love the stamps you got in the mail. Especially like that door. Have a great week.

Oh heavens NO don't call in sick! You have responsibilities that you must attend to. Pack up all those silly "just get in the way of my job" stamps and mail them to me immediately!! Do not delay one second longer as temptation is very strong evil. Although it is a huge burden, I will sacrifice my time and craft space for you my dear dear friend. Remember this burden is not one I will carry lightly but willingly ....

Oz you are such a good friend... not many would sacrifice themselves as you have done.... Barb is a lucky lady to have a friend like you.... Those stamps need to mailed to you asap so that she can can get on with important things like earning a living and the housework.
Who on earth needs rubber stamps and me time anyway? God lord... good job you are there for her.

Well, I had an idea similar to Oz - as I have decided to give myself some crafting time today to cheer me up a bit. (I hate programming and I hate these stupid error messages and today, I've read too much "error" on my screen) So I have the time - but not the stamps. I think that's a typical lost-lost situation.
Hope that you'll soon on the winning side again! ;-)

Well, well, well, look who's opening the dungeon door... Time for some air in here! That's right, the Minions (well most of us anyway) have returned for a little play in the dungeon. We really missed each other's company, and the daring souls who liked to drop by every now and again. While we have all gone in opposite directions since the dungeon door  slammed shut a while back, we have regrouped for a bit  to share in our fondness for the dark and weirdness of our beloved Haunted Design House.  First up, we have our esteemed  Sultana of the Sinister Black Dragon The Fang-tasmogorical  Fiona Contagion of Corrosion Croms Agent of the Abominable Andrea Maniacal Mother of Mayhem Monique Cadaverous Concoctor of Chaos Creepy Glowbugg  Devilishly Deviant  Donna Spreader of Sickness Susan Thanks so much for dropping by our dungeon today.
