Mr and Mrs Hall 'O' Ween

An owl is not just for Christmas you know so....... I have used the fabby bag template from 
I adore these bags and have made a few now , they are so very simple to make up
I have also used elements from both 
and 
Backgrounds main papers - Dollie Daydream goes East

I started by making up my bags , these are a fantastic size on the CD but as I wanted them for little treats I cut them out at 65% and thats ideal for my project 
I cut these by hand but I have previously used my portrait - there isnt that much cutting to the bags so its nice to get hands to scissors for a change.
Once the bag is made the real fun begins 

 Mrs Hall 'O' Ween 

I decided on a frilly skirt for Mrs Hall 'O' Ween using some frilled ribbon, and gave her some eyelashes . Her hat was borrowed from another Polkadoodles character  Witch Wendie  She is a stunning witch am sure I will have to use her very soon not just using her hat!.
The Owl and Broom sign, bats and sentiment all from the above downloads
Finished off with some googly eyes and filling with sweeties 


 Mr Hall 'O' Ween 


Mr Hall 'O' Ween does make me chuckle , I borrowed his moustache and glasses from Work and Play 11 - All his elements were from the same 2 downloads
Witchie Witchie craft download bundle
and 
Witchie journalling cards download  .
 Of course adding again googly eyes and filled with sweeties

Wow totally how much fun have I had this week . I love using the Mix'it fluid its amazing almost magical . 



I used the lovely image Igloo Camp , also found on the Frosted Winter collection here . For the background I simple coloured over using 9205 (Green Grey 5) I covered that with a snowflake mask and spritzed the Mix'it fluid over, the edges seemed a little flat so I used a little piece of dishcloth a touch more fluid and voila! The checks on her coat were done using 3180. For the igloo after I had coloured it I used the silver shake'it pen and smoothed it with blender, my photos are not very clear in real life its so very sparkly.

Skin 3120/4125/4135/4145/4150

Igloo 9100/9101/9102/
Grey 7115/7110/7109
White Shake'It
I also used some fluffly stuff for the mallows and some flowersoft on her hat and fur trims and a little glamour dust for extra sparkle
