Haunted Design House

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 HDH034 . 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 Twoso me (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 f...

I actually completed a little scrappin' yesterday!! I'm definitely NOT a speed scrapper! It takes me forever to finish a page [just ask Cindy or Laurie!]. I'm working on a 8.5x5.5 Halloween album. I'm one that includes blurry pictures in her albums... that adds an extra creepy touch to things, I think. Here's what I've finished so far [Oh! And I'm not showing the completed page 2 because I don't like it... I'm just showing a small element from it instead!]. Sorry about the reflection off of the page protectors... it's such a pain to get the pages in & out, that I just scanned those little buggers!! Cover: Page 1: Page 2 (sort of): ink on GrungeBoard Page 3: Page 4: Page 5: Page 6: I LOVE the cover, and my two favorite pages so far are # 5 & #6. I used TAC 's So Splattered & Spring Dream , and the potion bottle stamp is one from my friend, Laurie... I can't remember the name of the manufacturer. And there are a TON of diff...

Thought I'd share my 1st prize winner from Saturday! There are several different stamp companies represented in addition to TAC, and I'm embarrassed to say that I don't know the names, but I'm sharing anyway! I purchased several of them at past stamp conventions, and half the time they don't put a card or anything in the bag with their name on it. I think the tree is from Stamp Oasis, the creepy skeleton scene is one I got from Ebay, the broom is from BattleAxe, 'Believe in Magic' is from Viva Las Vegas, spider web and bats are from TAC. The crow and tombstones are from the same place (convention), and the 'If the broom fits...ride it' is another convention stamp. Majority of the ribbon is from Martha Stewart, Target, and some misc. fiber. Scrapper's floss and Stickles are absolute musts! Transparent tags & fence from MM, and 'creepy crawly' tag is I-kandee. I dyed the shipping tag with Terra Cotta spray ink. VersaMark, Noir Palette,...
