Crafty Calendar October Challenge - Oddball Art Halloween Cards & Jewellery

Good morning, I hope you are keeping well.    I'm think I'm probably going to get rather wet and windswept today.  Somehow I was "persuaded" to go away for the weekend on a birdwatching trip to Spurn in Yorkshire, not sure why I agreed to this, but the weather forecast is not looking too good.

Well we are in October and it's the first Saturday in the month  so we have a new challenge for you over at Crafty Calendar.

The theme this month is
HALLOWEEN

For my projects I have gone shrink plastic mad and have made some Halloween jewellery and mounted them on decorated gift cards.

My first card has some witch hat earrings made using black Sizzix shrink plastic.
The image is Witchy Legs, Skirt and Broom from Oddball Art coloured with copics.
The background is blended distress oxides spritzed with water.
The design paper is from the Trick Or Treat Halloween digital paper pack from ErinBradleyDesigns over on Etsy.
The sentiment is from the MFT Frightfully Sweet stamp set.


The second card has some little bat earrings made using black Sizzix shrink plastic.
The image is Bats Creepy Cute Chronicles from Oddball Art.  
The background is blended distress oxides spritzed with water and then the image was drawn on top of this with my Scan N Cut and a Ranger embossing pen and then embossed with black embossing powder.
The design paper is from the Trick Or Treat Halloween digital paper pack from ErinBradleyDesigns over on Etsy.
The sentiment is from the Tis the Season Creepy Cute Chronicles stamp set by Oddball Art.


The third card has some little ghost earrings and also a cute ghost pendant made using white Sizzix shrink plastic.
The image is I'm Here For The Boos! from Oddball Art coloured with copics.
The background is blended distress oxides spritzed with water.
The design paper is from the Trick Or Treat Halloween digital paper pack from ErinBradleyDesigns over on Etsy.
The sentiment and little headstone are from the MFT Fab-Boo-Lous stamp set.


The final card has some little pumpkin earrings and matching pendant made using translucent Sizzix shrink plastic which I coloured with polychromos pencils.
The image is Tis the Season Creepy Cute Chronicles from Oddball Art coloured with copics.
The background is blended distress oxides spritzed with water.
The design paper is from the Trick Or Treat Halloween digital paper pack from ErinBradleyDesigns over on Etsy.
The sentiment is from the MFT Spooky Sweets stamp set.

Wonderful idea, Bev. Love the earrings and the beautiful cards.
