DAY #2 OF THE 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN.... DE-STEMPELWINKEL .
After yesterdays huge post i'll keep todays short.... well shorter.
Earlier this year Jetske asked if i'd like to be guest designer again in October....did i? You bet i did!
Halloween is 'my time'..... so this month i'm not only a regular member of the DT i am 'guest' designer, so i'll be doing 12 posts using stamps from DE-STEMPELWINKEL .... Who knows maybe more as i do love real rubber!
This started life as a kiddies wooden tic-tac-toe game.... i took it to pieces...distressed the wood....painted it...used designer papers around the sides, inside and underneath. The triangle shaped blocks were painted, then pumpkins adhered to one face, bats and moon to another and the third left blank. I edged the blocks with gold pen.
My charity shop find is now a unique Halloween toy. Please go and check out the DT blog when you have a few minutes to spare.... these ladies are very talented.
I'd like to enter the following challenges....
