Halloween Pennant Swap #1

My local mixed media group is swapping individual Halloween pennants this month... it's 10 for 10, so that in the end, we have a banner (bunting?) that will fit across a doorway or small mantel.  I wanted to use up bits and pieces of Halloween papers, stickers, images, etc., so I'm making them all different, so of course, it's taking me forever!  Normally I would probably fly right through this (I loooooove Halloween!), but I'm having a prolonged period of totally missing mojo.... I just can't seem to get out of it, everything is a huge challenge.  I don't even like what I did in my gluebook today... maybe I'll share that tomorrow, the good, the bad, and the ugly....  full disclosure, LOL!  Ah well, we've all been there, right?  I'll stop whining now. ;)

Here is the first installment of my swaps.  Collage and stamped images are from Red Lead, Crafty Secrets, Oxford Impressions, The Graphics Fairy, and Lisa's Altered Art.  If you have a question about a specific image, just email me, I'll let you know what's what.

I hope your week is going well.  The kids are back in school this week, trying to get back into the daily grind.  It means I have extra time to craft... just wish that ol' mojo would join me. ;)  'Til next time.... have a happy.

Oh I do love Halloween and your mojo hasn't really deserted you! These are quite sweet. I'm trying to make a banner right now - with images of Dracula movie posters... I think I might like yours better!!!!

Well, if this is what you come up with when your mojo has gone AWOL, I'll probably be floored by what you create when your mojo is around. The banner is great.

That is SO CUTE!!!!

I didn't make a sound out loud when I saw this, but the back of my throat kind of tightened up, like maybe I would squeal if my kids weren't in the other room . . .

VERY CUTE, Jean!

Love this Jean, and I know what you mean about mojo, although it doesn't appear yours is missing at all ...lol..

Prolonged missing mojo mmmmm I know that feeling. However, the bunting looks fab to me, I really like the background 'the witching hour, lovely.

I always make things difficult for my self when doing swaps, as I also do a different thing for each one. You could have done ten the same as a different person will get each one!

Love Dawn xx
