Two-fer, but punny, so watch out-- 31 Days of Halloween, Day 19!

Everyone still Halloween Hopping? ( Linkys are up in the right hand corner.)  So I started making a big hunkin' project, using (what else?) Altered Pages collage images, plus some pretty awesome Smeared digis, but  . . . 

ended up with two smaller pieces instead.  First, Bettie and Bertram are still in hell, this time with a Dante's Inferno twist (Mr. Gargoyle is AP):
All about the candy, oh yes!
What do you think?  Is the blood on the toothbrush too much?

Bertram and Bettie, still aflame.  

(The wonderfully detailed pedestal/column is from S&S.)

And second, an altered tin:
Smeared digi
 But not just ANY altered tin.  This one is a Halloween 
PLAY SET!
Mustachioed and behatted,

ready to fly--AP has a great selection of wings, btw--

MWAAA, big kiss, sweetie!
Because, after all, ghouls just wanna have fun.
There, I said it.  
And I'm NOT sorry.  ;) 

Happy Hopping!

    1. Seriously, I thought about giving it to our dentist, but the possible repercussions made me reconsider . . . perhaps an anonymous sending would be a better idea, know what I mean??

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
