BLOG HOP FINAL DAY!!!! BLOGGERS CHALLENGE #71- Halloween

This weeks BLOGGERS CHALLENGE is Halloween! I do not have much for Halloween sets, since I do not really celebrate it. BUT I do LOOOOVEEEEE FALL...sooo I used the new Feathered Friends set with Fall Whimsy. Since I am in Iowa and away from home, I had to use what I had here. LOL


I also used Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge as my inspiration - So this is for Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge #64 - This is also a sketch from page 134 in the SU catalog!



There is some BLOG CANDY and you can see a PEEK at all of the new stamp sets on the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog for tonights Release Party! The winner will be announced at that time. Don't forget tonight is the RELEASE PARTY for our new releases! I will be posting more projects as the weekend goes by with the Release Party Challenges. Those offer MORE chances to WIN! :)

Today, I am sleep deprived from staying up too late stamping and scrapbooking. I am having a wonderful time! I *think* everyone else is too!

Here are a few more details on my project:
Stamp Set: Cozy Feathered Friend by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps, Fall Whimsy by SU (retired)
Cardstock and DP: Only Orange, Basic Black, Black Out COllection by We R Memory Keepers, Whisper White and Lovely Lilac
Accessories: BLING, Nestibilities, Paper Snips, Dimensionals, Scallop Edge Punch, Copics, Pumpkin embellishments from my scrapbooking stash.

You may not be able to see it, but the wings are popped up with dimensionals...Also, the stars on the DP are FELT!!!

DO not forget about the BLOG HOP - the next stop is the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog (chance to win and see the NEW sets!) Also, you will want to click on the link for the BLOGGERS CHALLENGE participants and see all of their wonderful work!
Have a Fabulous DAY!!!!!!
