Day 9: 31 Days of Halloween

Today I have an ATC to share with you, I am rather uncomfortable with this format. It seems like I am leaving something unfinished by not popping onto a card front and embellishing more. But it is what it is, right?

The image is titled Halloween Trio, but to me it has a Day of the Dead feel to it. It is a digi, something else I am uneasy using. It just seems like you are cheating when all you do is print something out, however, what do you do when you find an awesome image like this and want it so bad? But I do like how this turned out.


Do you like decorating for Dia de los Muertos? Here is a cool tutorial on making some really neat ornaments at Quilting Daily.

Did you know that Sweet Pea Stamps is offering digis now? Not every image is available in the format and there are some that are not offered, such as this one, in rubber but I bet you could find a ton of cool images for all your deep, dark celebrations!

Thanks to Kristina, I am entering this in the PPP DoD Challenge #8.

Thanks for stopping by!

That image is fabulous and you've done a fine job with her even though I know you are not happy with it. I agree with Donna. You can always pop it onto a card later and add all the ribbon and embellies you wish :)

oh my I love this image...you did a great job coloring it...ATC's are fun little bits of art that will begin to grow on you...especially if you have smaller images to work with!
