Monday Madness....Imagine That!

Don't worry that it's Monday. You'll have lots craftyness to make you smile when you see the Design Team projects for this week's Monday Madness! :)

For my card today I used two stamps from the Mixed Holiday Sentiments set.  I love the scratchy scary font! Perfect for a haunting Halloween greeting!


I wasn't sure I was going to like this when I started it, but now that it's done I love it!

Handmade flower and leaf with a tag from the MME Mischievous coordinating brads. I used Memento Potter's Clay ink for the sentiment and it matches perfectly with the papers.


The Happy Halloween sentiment didn't fair as well as I had hoped {I knew it would bleed on my twill ribbon} but I think it works since it's supposed to be a grungy look anyway. Orange button, black cat button, and one of my handmade stick pins pulls it all together.


And I couldn't just leave it alone. LOL After I took the pics I added this butterfly, with black stickles, to the leaf sprig above the flower. :)
