Waltzing with the mouse for Halloween

  It's that time of the month again.......time to put on your dancing shoes to 

WALTZ with the MOUSE

 

 I do not own one Halloween stamp from WMS...I stared at the few WMS stamp sets that I do own...looking for a stamp that might resemble a bat, or witch, or pumpkin.....nothing! Then decided that I really wanted to join the dance since I have not missed one since it's conception. It has to be WMS stamps...but that doesn't mean I can't use punches...or how about a freebie template from Claire's store. BINGO, I hit something and the light came on. Here's a shot of the goodie box (Sweetie Pouch) before it gets filled. AND a pic of the cauldron that I made with punches. I started out with a pumpkin made from punches and then when I made the sentiment tag, the cauldron just made more sense. The pumpkin will be available in a future post.

The cauldron, I found here at Penny's blog. Thank you, Penny!

The sentiment is three words that I found from the WMS Afternoon Tea Sentiments.

I used the leaves from Big Blooms for my 'fire' to brew the treats and the leaves that hold the treat bag at the top.

For the freebie 'Sweetie Pouch' and the stamp sets here's a link to the WMS store.

And the finished product:

I had brown 'grass' in there, too, but ended up taking it out as it took away from the leaves and the inside of the sweetie pouch.

To go see the other dancers creations go to the FORUM.
Thanks for coming by!
