I mentioned last week or so that I had been working on some witch collages, so thought I'd share one with you. The stamps and papers are from Character Constructions. This is done on a flat canvas which measures 11 x 14, a bigger size for me. The skirt on the witch is made from crepe paper, and the word 'IN' has a magnet on the back, so it can be changed for the word 'OUT'.
It has been a week of sickness here...Miss B is just getting over her cold, but still coughing. Then Tuesday evening Mark started to feel sick. Unfortunately, his Mom called about 4:30am yesterday with pains on her left side, so he had to take her to the emergency room. Luckily they were able to get her squared away quickly and released her later in the morning. Happy to report it was nothing major. Anyway, I have been popping my Airborne frequently, hoping that the nasty bug floating around the house does not come my way.
Hope all is well with you and you are enjoying all beautiful things Fall has to offer (cooler temps if you are not living in FL and more breezes if you do, pumpkin stands, candy corn, hearty recipes, and lots of decorations in the stores (including Christmas, he he he))!! Til next time...
Barbara - so which witch is it? In or Out? You are cranking out the Halloween fun. Thanks for sharing with the Street Team again!

This is AWESOME! LOVE the crepe paper skirt and the way that the lettering "In" and "Out" can be interchanged. Very clever idea.
