Still have some hard to shop for names on your
holiday list?

Our very own Minion, Andrea
"has such sights to show you"
in her Etsy shop.

Not only is Andrea truly gifted with a paint brush,
but she is amazing at making the most detailed tiny miniatures.
They are perfect for a mini apothecary hutch or a
miniature Hallowe'en display.    

See what I mean?!
Look at those teeny little punkins and leaves on
that tiny cake!!!

Perfection!!!

Multi talented, that's our Andrea.
She is also quite clever with the whole felting gig as well!
I am the proud owner of a few of her felted pieces and I can attest that
they are unique in design, very well crafted and neat and tight.
I like that in a felted piece.  

I know I already mentioned her immense ability with paint
and a  brush, but check out this gorgeous witch!!
Completely hand painted and it measures 3" X 3"!!!
I also have a collection of Andrea's small paintings and they
are superb! So detailed and beautifully crafted!!!

Now that you have had a taste of what kind of magical items
await you in Andrea's Etsy shop, please drop by and see what
may very well be the perfect holiday gift for someone on your list
or just treat yourself to something special!!

Macabre Monday HDH080 - "Alas, poor Yorick"

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. Please make sure that your blog post / upload has been made AFTER the challenge date... we wanna see fresh stuff, not those from a few weeks ago!!
3. If you upload to any online galleries (TACPCC, S&S, PCP, SCS, etc.), please tag the title using HDH080.
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. We'll be selecting a weekly Gruesome Twosome (our 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 and will receive a little giftie from Barb... this could be stamp sets, handmade items, papers, halloweenie embellishments... you just never know.

Ok, my little pretties... your challenge this week:

"Alas, poor Yorick!"

You are to create a dark, Gothic, or Halloween-based skullified project in a suitably macabre fashion.
Skulls, skulls, and more skulls!
Images, papers, embellishments, fragments!
Use 'em if you've got 'em!

We also have a sponsor this week. It's me, Creepy G.
I am offering up a $20 gift certificate to my Etsy shoppe,
where I have been busy stocking the shelves with lots of
handmade creepy goodness.

I am also offering up a bous giveaway.

All you have to do is visit my Etsy shoppe, pick a favorite item,

come back here to HDH and leave a comment with your

pick of creepy goodness. I will randomly choose a winner

on Saturday, the 19th to win the item of their choice.

And now... check out what the Macabre Minions have been up to...

Sultana of the Sinister Lynx:

Ooooh, Mommy like! Mommy like alot!!!

Creepy Cricut Cween Donna:

Brilliant use of a gorgeous decanter of Vodka-

that was filtered over diamonds. Fancy schmancy huh?

Cadaverous Concoctor of Chaos Creepy Glowbugg

Agent of the Abominable Andrea:

Andrea has created quite a mysterious little

gem here. Drop by her blog for the details.

Temptress of Terror Teri:

Ah, a girl and her skulls.  I really like the accent of the red

with the black tones on this one. 

Devious Digital Demon-ess Susan:

I don't know why Susan decided not to use any skulls

on her project, but it is lovely just the same. LOL!

Now, how about you, my little pretties?? Are you up for the challenge this week?
