DAY #27 of the 31 DAYS OF HALLOWE'EN

Welcome to day #27 of our month long Hallowe'en celebration.... i cant believe its nearly over.... anyhow onto todays projects..... yes i have 2 again ....the 1st is the piece i made for a bird cage swap organised by my dear friend Frankie (of Dragons dreams).... my poor swap partner has been very patient with me as this should have arrived with her about the time my Nan died....i lost september with nursing Nan in her final weeks, her death , funeral and helping Grandad come to terms with his loss and loneliness..... but here it is finally...and its in the post to her! Poor lass said she had had a look at my blog and survived! So i hope she likes my Mr Poe.... i used pages from one of my Poe books... a die cut cage, Smeared ink stamp and Raven stamp from i dont know who.... gems, drops, brads, ribbon with skeletons on.... the raven i heat embossed and cut out..... i liked the idea of Poe caged and the raven free.... inner meaning and all that..... as he was a troubled soul.
My 2nd piece is another bracelet..... i had a few of the mounts left over from another bracelet i made ages ago.... so again i used mr Poe.... stamped onto shrink plastic and sealed in the mounts... i added chain and beads.... its a terrible picture as we have bad light here with this yucky weather.... but hopefully its good enough for you to see what its like.

I am todays sponsor for the 31 days so check out Terras blog for instructions and you could win one of the pieces from my range of jewelery..... even Mr Poe bracelet if you wanted it.

I shall enter the following challenges.......
