Thanks for the Great (Broom) Ride!

Well my dear Halloweenphile friends,
another magical season is nearing an end  
but not without
thanks to the many talented bloggers and swappers
who made it so much fun! 
  
My feather tree
is decked out with handmade
ornaments and tags
of Halloweens' past and present.
I love each and every one you were kind
enough to share with me.
That fabulous coffin to the left of the tree
was made by
for a swap in the
Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group.
 
Also received in MAMA swaps this year
is the
beautiful bat winged young witch spoolie
made for me by sweet
&
the amazingly detailed tin
created by
my talented friend
 
No Halloween would be complete
without an altered matchbox swap and
is a partner who never fails to delight.
Aren't the box and
Halloween tophat divine?
 
And of course huge Halloween hugs
to the many bloggers who
hosted
parties, challenges and swaps.
 Links to their blogs
 can be found at the top of my sidebar...
it's not too late to visit!
 
Our Queen of Halloween this year?
That wonderfully wicked
hostess of 
Thanks for keeping the festivities going all month long!

7 More Days.....

I must admit to feeling a little sad when it gets this close.
Creating for the Halloween season
is just so much fun!
It's difficult to pack it all away for another year.
 
I hosted our 3rd annual
 Halloween Matchbox Swap
in my flickr group
and as usual am blown away
by the talented members.
If you want to partake in some
really creative and diverse
Halloween eye candy,
you can visit
 
This is the box I altered for my partner...
 and these are a few of the goodies I sent along with it.

 
We did an altered Altoids tin swap in the
Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group.
My contribution is this witchy winged Marie
riding in her Halloween coach.
I really do need to invest in a new camera
(or possibly photography lessons!)
as I'm always somewhat disappointed with the detail
I'm not capturing in these pieces.
 
Here are a couple of vintage postcards to
add to your Halloween image
collections.



In closing this post
I must give kudos to the
Mistress of Halloween,
for hosting
You've inspired us all
to embrace the season!
