Waltzingmouse September Release - Halloween Fun!

I hope you are enjoying the sneak peeks of the September Waltzingmouse Release.  Today we have lots of Halloween fun for you!  The design team is previewing three more sets - "Splat That" - a mini set with ink spots and claw marks and paint swooshes, "The Count" another mini set featuring the one and only Count Dracula, and a full size Gothic Halloween set called "All Hallows Eve".

My first project features His Excellency the Count with his very own "calling card"  I had to add some bloody red ink splats to make it more terrifying!! Bwahhhh haaahahhaaa!!

 My second project features some pretty scroll work and a poem to keep you safe when the witches appear this Halloween.

I added all sorts of pretty embellishments to my card including a pretty doily, lace, and inked foliage.  To make the lace accent under the flower I threaded button twine through the holes in a 7" length of lace and tied the ends together to form a circle.   The orange beaded spray came from the "wedding" section of the craft store, and  was originally white.  I colored the pearls with Copic markers to add the brilliant color. 
And for those of you who know I am a gardener - here is a photo of a bloom from my very own St. John's Wort in my yard. The flowers are really quite spectacular!   

I know you have lots more you want to see - here's a list of the other DT members who are sharing previews today.
