PBSC October - Anything Goes (Optional 'Cute or Spooky ')

It's the first Saturday of the month, so that means it's time for a new Penny Black Saturday Challenge...where the theme is:


'Anything Goes'
or
'Cute or Spooky'


As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome 1-2-3 Stitch:
Prize - a $20 voucher!

I went 'Cute AND Spooky' and picked one of the stamps from the 'Spooky' stamp set, stamping it on to a some watercolour paper along with a sentiment (using a stamp from the 'Be Very Scared' set). I coloured it using watercolour pencils, then used one of my circle Nesties to cut the circle shape. The cobweb paper is from the 'Apothecary Emporium' pad by Echo Park, and I'm not sure what brand the skull paper is...it's a snippet of a 12x12 sheet I've had for years. I distressed the edges a little, then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and balck and white gel pens, before matting them on to some purple card. The kraft treat bag is from Hobbycraft.


I'm also entering this treat bag into the following challenges:
