'Old Ladies - Yum!' Halloween Mannequin:)

Hello Everyone:)

I know it's unusual for me to be posting mid-week,

but I'm excited about my latest project:)

Retro Cafe Art Gallery

is having another contest!!!

I've dubbed Kristin Hubick the 

'Contest Diva'!!! LOL

I have to give her a bigShout Out, 

as if it wasn't for her efforts to run

these contests, not only for her customers

but for anyone, it helps give some of us

newbie's a chance to spread our wings,

and gain some confidence and have

our projects seen by others.

So be sure to check out her 

Retro Cafe Art Gallery

and 

Retro Cafe Art Shop!

(Link's in my Favourite's Listing:)

So here is my latest project:)

Yes, it's another one of my Mannequin's!

(Gail at Shabby Cottage Studio where

I get my mannequin's from has dubbed me

the 'Mannequin Queen'! LOL

I've gone batty!

I'm calling this

'Old Ladies - Yum!'

(Notice the 'Victim' needing Help:)

I had a two day marathon in the art room, and

amazed myself at just how many Halloween

oriented art supplies I had! But the real shocker,

was I knew where they all were!! LOL

Most of the embellishments on this piece are

Kristin's Coffee Break Design Products, that

come already punched out on different surfaces,

like chipboard, or masonite.

The spiders, bats, bat wings and even the little coffin

are all Coffee Break Design Products, and are so

much fun to play with:)

(And of course everyone knows the '31' is Mr. Holtz's

number series plates, I love using these:)

The back side view, I loved using the Coffee Break

Design web! 

Between all the ribbon cutting, and making her skirt,

and the black fuzzy pipe cleaners, that was a day

in itself!

My husband commented when he noticed that 

pieces were straying from my art room to our

breakfast table, that this one was a little involved, LOL

And of course, used my favourite black alphabet

beads! I do love those things:)

The base to give it extra stability, I used an old CD

and glued the polka dot paper to it, it helped steady the piece:)

So there ya go!

Now, my wish for you all is to go make something

that is Halloween related and go to 

Retro Cafe Art Gallery 

also listed on Facebook

And jump in both feet into the

Halloween Contest that Kristin

is having!

I have more projects in the works, and

a few things I've been building in my

art room, so more posts to come!

Enjoy!
