This is my favorite time of year...I love fall, love Halloween, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE Vanessa's annual Halloween parties ~ they are truly magical.
For last year's party, because I was in what felt like a million swaps, I posted lots of pictures of swaps that I made and received. This year I only participated in one swap and I've already posted about it. So I've just decided to post a few things I've made recently.
I fell in love with these vintage images so I made a series of banners with them.
And for these...I really wanted to make over-the-top embellished witches, so I used some of my favorite jewelry on these banners...
Thank you all for stopping by!!!
If you didn't come here from Vanessa's party, it's a MUST...it is sure to be as amazing as always!!! There are also links to all of the other party participants on her blog!
Have fun!!!
Edited: I've had a few people ask, so...just wanted to let you know I've put these banners in my Etsy shop. Thanks for all of your nice comments!!!
Im so excited to be your first comment of the day! Your banners are fabulous. Happy Halloween!
