October's Blast From The Past!!!

Last ugly one I'm going to link up.  Why I blogged this for a customer blog hop is beyond me except my migraines again - I'm going to stick to that story I think.  The few comments I received on it were just being generous in my opinion.

Hello and welcome!!  It's time for Taylored Expressions Blast From The Past Blog Hop!!  This month we were challenged to come up with either a Halloween project or something sweet.  I went with both on my project.  Of course, I did this at the last minute again thanks to the migraine issue.  Ugh!!  Anyone want them?  They're free!!

I started out by stamping my images from TE's Cozy Cottages twice in memento tuxedo black ink onto white card stock before coloring with prismacolor markers.  Once both of my images were colored, I cut the second ones out and put them aside to pop up later.  Then taking some designer paper I received in a swap - just love that Halloween looking paper! - I layered it onto some Stampin Up! only orange card stock then stippled the same colored dye ink around the edges.  Once that was done, I pulled out some Stampin Up! chocolate chip scraps and my TE Whimsy Tree die and die cut two trees using my Big Shot.  After adding the trees, both of my colored/popped up images, and some bling, I was ready to add some ice stickles to highlight the "home" rooftops.  For my final touches, some Halloween ribbon, charm, and brads from last year were the perfect additions.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Make sure to check out all of the participating Taylored Expressions hoppers and leave some love for them.  You can find the links below.
