Wicked Wednesday - HDH096

Today I have a Macabre Monday/Wicked Wednesday

Bugaboo offering for you.

I went the way of the creepy cute as I needed a

card to fit a little girl who may or may not like creepy.

This little cutie is from the "Skelekinz" line from

Bugaboo Stamps.  

The challenge here at Haunted Design House,

 is to create a loooong project with loooong elements.

I used an opalescent thread to tether each of the skull balloons

to the card. I also used long, rectangles as my card and image bases.

See how easy that was?!

There is still plenty of time to play along with us, 

for the "Xtremely Xhaustive" challenge. 

I am loving these balloons!!!

Happy Hump Day!

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 HDH096.

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.

6. In your post, please explain how your entry meets the challenge requirements... if you don't follow the challenge requirements, your entry will not be considered for GT status or prizes. Also please link back to the HDH challenge so others may find us & play along!

Ok, macabre fans... your challenge this week:

Xtremely Xhaustive

Now let's see what the Minions have in store for you:

Sultana of the Sinister Lynx:

A splendiferous piece of altered creepiness from Lynx . . .please tell me I'm not the only one who wants her to be wearing saucy undies beneath that habit :P

Creepy Cricut Cween Donna:

The inside reads "Jump for joy"! Bwahahahahahahahahaha! Perfect, Donna!
