Macabre Monday #010 - Bubble Bubble Toil & Trouble...

By -
Ok, so I still haven't picked the Gruesome Twosome this week... I'm hoping to do that tonight, so be watching for that post :)

Here is my take on the ingredients challenge:  green, black, purple &/or tan in color,  and something round & shiny

See... told ya' it was going to be a super-simple one!  I found the metal container in the $1 spot at Target like TWO FREAKIN' YEARS AGO!  Yep... I've had it in my pit of studio this whole time.  It was already painted black with the shiny metal lid, so all I did was add a little patterned paper, fuzzy skull rub-ons, and a little stamped cardstock, and BOOM... done.

Stamps (all TAC):  So Splattered (retired), Label Lingo (Hostess Level D set)
Paper:  Bo-Bunny dp, kraft & black cardstocks (TAC)
Ink:  StazOn & Palette
Other:  flocked rub-on kit from Making Memories, Target container


I stamped splatters on the lid with StazOn & then heat-set it (just in case)... we'll see how it holds up.  I'm thinking I like this cannister for a "you've been boo'd" kinda thing... or just as a giftie container in general.

What do you think?

You know what they say about those Target containers don't you.. they come with so much excess baggage and bad vibes that you have to let them air and season for a year or two before you dare use them anyway! Oh yeah, that is what I heard anyhoo!

Love what you have done here, might be simply but I say simply devine! Linda aka Oz
