witchie witchie, screamie screamie .....

..... happy happy Halloweenie!

I love Halloween, I love the decorations, the parties, the dressing up, the revolting party games (especially "fluffy bunnies") .... scaring the trick or treaters ..... I love it all!  And I know it's only September but it's starting to feel a little like Autumn and the nights are getting a little darker so I've been busy making a few Halloween goodies to sell.

But, before I show you the latest goodies in my MISI shop, I've got a little bit of a giveaway for you ..... but I will need a little something in return!  I've been toying for the longest time with the idea of printed cake toppers and party bags so I've made a set that I'd like one of you to try out for me.   To win, just leave a comment at the end of this blog and I'll pull a name out of the hat on the 1st October.  In return for winning these, I'd like your honest feedback and to know whether these would be the sort of item you'd buy .... anyway, here's a picture of what you could win:

Neat eh?  Six double sided cake toppers and six cellophane party bags ..... all ready for that Halloween party! 
 
And now, a shameless advert for my MISI shop:


Some Halloween Kits - five cute halloween handcrafted toppers, buttons, bows and loads of other bits and pieces ..... ideal for scrapbooking or card making or for giving away as a little Halloween present!   


And a rather fabulous Halloween Paper Bag Album - perfect for keeping those special Halloween memories alive and kicking!  Now reduced to £11 plus postage and packaging. 

I'm off to make some more Halloween goodies - don't forget to enter my giveaway!!

I've been .....

.... busy, busy, busy!

I've been exceptionally busy papercrafting recently .... and that is never a bad thing! I've had lots of custom orders and have had great fun working on them. Here's a sneaky peak at a few of them ....

A paper bag book to celebrate a day out at a farm:


Some cute "band aid" tins with little note books inside - these were to record all those very important first day at school details:


Some cute little tag albums:


Some jewellery and matching gift boxes:


Not too shabby, even if I say so myself!

The postman has (literally) just delivered some rather cute charm sets that I got off ebay from a seller called
A Charm For All. I can't begin to tell you how lovely these are and how very long it took me to pick from the fabulous collection that she has! And, best of all, it only too around a week for delivery from the USA. I can't wait to start using them - I've got plans for a lovely fat Halloween bag book using the vintage Halloween charms and, of course, I need to use those before I can move on to the lovely silver Christmas charms!!
