Do you love Halloween?

Well I do. I belong to a creative group called The Hive (see the button on my sidebar) and Patrick Gill from Cre8or's Touch is hosting a Second Anual Vintage Halloween Card Creative Challenge Exchange & Swap!

 Come join us and create something special. Patrick is also creating 2 wonderful pieces as prizes so not only do you get a fun piece of art in the swap you have a chance to win one of Patrick's great Izannah Walker inspired Halloween dolls.

This swap is for all kind of artists. You can make a sculpture, doll, shadow box, or dreamscape, ornament, or even a wall hanging or multi-layered scrapbook page. Your piece just has to be 3-D.

This is my second time joining in. I did the 4th of July Swap HERE and loved it. So come check the swap out and I hope you'll join us!

BINGO! I Won!

I know I've mentioned The Hive before. http://creatingthehive.com/ It's a social network made up of creative crafty folks. One of my favorite people there loves to sponsor games and tutorials. One game was a very long Bingo game around Christmas time. I hung in there and I won!

The prize was one of Patrick's Wooden Primitive Santas! I just squealed when I opened the box! I LOVE this Santa! He has a permanent home on my t.v cabinet so everyone can always see him.

The carving and painting and crackle and details are just wonderful!

Patrick who works under the name Cre8or's Touch really does amazing work. Check out his blog to see more of his great work! http://thecre8orstouch.blogspot.com/

Thanks again Patrick for the fun games and great tutorials! I have no idea how you have time to do them.
