Skeletons in your closet? - 31DOH Day 16

Welcome to the 16th day of 31 Days of Halloween, hosted by the awesome Smeared Ink! There are many awesome and talented crafters in this blog hop, which you'll find listed on the right, and you can start right back at the beginning if you've just arrived here :) There will be treasure hunts and prizes to win, so don't forget to visit everyone!

So I got all the skeletons out of my closet and put them to work on my card.  They are tiny skeletons that run around my house causing all manner of mess.  They're so cheeky they'll even hide things from me!  So I've gathered them up and put them in a treat cup where they can't get into any more trouble.  I also have Belinda Bones here to keep watch over them, she comes highly recommended from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.  I coloured her with my copics and used liquid pearls on her bones.

As for the card, I layered some Bazzill with graveyard paper, then cut a hole for the cup to sit in.  This was actually from some packaging that I had.  I decorated the outside with ribbon roses and tulle.

The skeletons are now happy in their new home :)


Here's the full card.  I added a pop of orange and some spiders and a skull.


Thanks for visiting, your next stop is Airless Chambers.

The skeletons may be gathered up into the treat cup - but now you have to keep track of the treat cup.
It's a vicious circle.
Love the lady juggling the bones.
thanks for sharing a fun project.
