It's the third Saturday of the month, so that means it's time for some more inspiration for this month's Penny Black Saturday Challenge...where the theme is:
'Anything Goes'
or
'Too Cute to Spook!'
We're currently without a sponsor, so this challenge is just for fun.
I decorated another Halloween treat bag...and this time used one of the critters from the 'Be Very Scared!' set. I stamped him onto watercolour paper, coloured him using watercolour pencils, then used one of my Nesties to cut the circle shape. The papers are a mixture of Carta Bella 'Spooky' (the ghosts), unbranded (the cobwebs) and a pad from The Works (spotty). I distressed the edges, then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen. I matted all the layers onto black card, cutting a scalloped circle using another Nestie die, before adding it to a kraft gift bag.
