Macabre Monday Octopodally Ominous


Greetings! Need a little break from all of the Christmas cheer? LOL Well it's time for another Macabre Monday at Haunted Design House and I'm really excited this week. We're being sponsored by the FABULOUS Octopode Factory and let me tell you I LOVE every stinkin' thing that Lily puts out! Talk about some REALLY unusual and creative digis! And to think this artist is only 17 years old! So the challenge this week we are to use ONLY 8 things on our project. EVERY little thing counts; the card base, image panel, bit, bob or whatever counts as an element. I SAID it was a challenge! (especially for me, the "More is never enough" gal!)


I had one tough time deciding what image(s) to use (since I have almost ALL of them) but finally settled on UberCool Steampunk Lady Flo and her admirer Steampunk Reginald. (That's 2) And I couldn't resist adding a Tim Holtz fragment to each of their eyes. (That's 4!) Card base and 2 Graphic 45 Steampunk DP mats. (That's 7!) And a computer generated sentiment. (That's 8!) Oh CRAP! No embellies! Well, that's it for the challenge, but you bet I'll be adding a little sumpin' sumpin' after the challenge is through! (You didn't see this, did you Barb?) Now flock to Haunted Design House to see what the Minions have in store for you and be sure to play along to WIN some FAB images from The Octopode Factory!
