Halloween Vignettes

Way back in September I made a Halloween “lollie” wreath as part of my pre-launch catalogue event for my Hostesses.  I haven’t had the opportunity to blog it till now.

Having seen my Halloween project, some of the ladies asked if I would do a class on how to make it.  I had to completely change the content of the original Halloween class I had scheduled and they all did this instead so I couldn’t publish anything till after the class.

As this was a pre-launch item, I had to use products which were current then, but retired now and because it was for display purposes, I’d used some non-SU products.  This was what they did at class.  Needless to say it was rather ambitious to finish it all within the 2 hour session, so having learnt the concept of how to make the lollies, they had to take it home to complete the ensemble.

SU eventally found my missing parcel – it had mistakenly gone on holiday with DHL – driver wasn’t paying due attention that my parcel wasn’t his to pick up and eventually returned it to SU and it was finally despatched by UPS so it arrived in the nick of time for my class – talk about cutting it fine!  I was having kittens. 

Earlier today, we had the Inspiring Inkin’ Team Quarterly meeting led by Amanda, and new for this quarter, there is a Demonstrator’s Choice table where Demonstrators bring something they’ve made to showcase and all the Demonstrator’s vote on which one they like best.

Here is my entry – a second Halloween Vignette with the new products, antique brads, and the new Bigz Simple Alphabets dies.  Much to my surprise, it was voted as runner-up so it was worth staying up until 2 a.m. Friday night to finish it.

My sister and her husband arrive tomorrow evening – so I can procrastinate no more – I really have to clear the back bedroom and make up the beds before we go pick them up and whip through the entire house.   Aargh – how I hate housework. 

By the way, which do you prefer – the first one or my second attempt?
