Happy Haunting! - 31st October

Good Morning Friends!

No Hallowe'en card today, I found I had already used them all...so I thought I'd share another one of my 'Primitive' style watercolours and our decorated front porch. I've just got back in from decorating it in the rain!

We've had a bit of a 'fiasco' this year...I finally got around to  getting Tom up to the attic to get the decs down on Sunday and as usual, we were in a hurry. He got  a box down and I thought that was all that I needed...opened it yesterday and it was the wrong box! We were both too tired to open the attic up again last night (creepy in itself this time of year!), so I've had to go with what was in there. I did try first thing to cut some decals on my Cricut, but no good, still need to replace that blade!

So here are so pics of my hastily prepared spooky porch...




I usually have a Hallowe'en wreath that I brought back from the USA years ago - it's in the attic, so I dressed up my autumn wreath a little


This is my little Prim Witch on watercolour card...just like the Christmas snowmen, this  isn't from my imagination, but adapted from a picture in a magazine


Well I must get on my broomstick and fly!!! I have been looking at my list of commissions and to be honest sighed! I really thought that after all the events of last week and the final workshop before Christmas I was going to be able to relax a little, finish my own Christmas cards and even make some presents...today, is usually a cardmaking day, but I really do have to do housework...how I wish I was Samantha from 'Bewitched'!!!

Have a great day all and I'll make a cuppa this afternoon and do some hopping around your blogs!

Mwah Ha Ha!

  3. Hi Carole,
    well your front of your house looks amazing. I'm sure everyone is going to want to knock on your door. Are you going to be wearing a costume as well? I have just had my 2 little great granddaughters round for their trick or treat. They only go to family.
    Have a wonderful spooky, haunting evening.
    Lots of spooktacular crafty love. Jenny L.
