Blog Hop: This Is Halloween, Halloween, Halloween.

Hi there.

Another month. Another Banana Frog 'blog hop' [see the BF blog for a full list of hoppers this month]. Another chance for me to slightly mangle the proposed theme ...

Do you think I'll get away with a slightly macabre Halloween journal spread when the theme was meant to be 'Autumn'? I'll take the chance:
The 'This is Halloween' title, is taken from one of the best animated films ever The Nightmare Before Christmas:

... and is stamped using the Banana Frog 'DeLousiville' and 'Budmo Jiggler' alpha sets:

And I'm just hoping that Banana Frog owner-designer Bev will forgive me for what I did to her 'Fairytale Princess': And ... if you look carefully ...: I might just have corrupted the sentiment from the same 'Fairytale Princess' set, which usually just reads 'It's a truly fairytale kind of day':
I added the 'dark' myself ... well, if you can't go a little dark and dramatic for Halloween ... when can you? I always knew that having 3 different shades of red spray ink would come in useful at some point!

A special hello if you've dropped by from the blog of this month's Guest Designer AlisonDrummond-Jones and a reminedr that, as always, there'll be a chance to win a set of stamps somewhere [or everywhere] you leave a comment along the blog hop. Best of luck to you all.

Right then, I'll set you free to hop on your way to Nat's blog ... and I'll see you very soon, I feel another Month in Numbers heading this way ..

Julie :-)

p.s: will you allow me one small plug for the online crafting class I'm co-running which begins next Thursday? You will? Awww thanks ..... if you'd like to join Kirsty Neale and I for a fortnight of thrifty crafting tutorials then all the details you need are here.

Please note: the blog hop prize draw for October is now closed. I used a random number generator to select a winner from the comments, so congratulations go to Tara E.

Tara - keep your eye on the BF blog this week for details of how to claim your set of stamps. :-)
