PBSC October - Anything Goes (Optional 'Too Cute to Spook!')

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
'Too Cute to Spook!'

We are currently without a sponsor, so this challenge is just for fun.

I picked one of the cute critters from the 'Be Very Scared' set to decorate a Halloween treat bag. I stamped it onto watercolour paper, coloured it using watercolour pencils, then cut out the circle shape using one of my Nesties. The papers are from a pad from The Works...I distressed the edges, then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen. I matted the image onto a scalloped circle cut using another Nestie, then matted it all onto some black card before adding it to a kraft gift bag.


Challenges for this bag:
