I am getting into the Halloween spirit, although I haven't brought out my Halloween decorations yet - waiting until after Thanksgiving which here in Canada is this coming weekend.  I like the non traditional colors of this vintage Halloween picture.

How will you be inspired? colors, halloween, banner, vintage...

When I saw the photo I immediately thought of my Witch Hazel collection by October Afternoon.  I pulled out the colors and was inspired by the witchy shadow.  I then used a sentiment from one of the new Halloween sets by Unity.  I love this sentiment - my hubby was really scared of the Flying Monkeys in the Wizard of Oz when he was a kid so I giggle when I read it.

This is for the Curtain Call challenge:

I love this vintage print and just had to use it as some inspiration.

Ways to take the inspiration: colors, Christmas, stripes, gifts, shopping, wreath, vintage...

I took the inspiration literally and used some of my older October Afternoon paper - Holiday Style.  I am need of more 'mailable' cards so I didn't add a lot of 'doodads' to this one.

I used this week's sketch from Unscripted Sketches:

Can't wait to see what you do!

This will be the final Inspired By Challenge until after Christmas.  I will have another one ready for December 29th.  Until then, what better challenge than a Santa Inspiration.  I LOVE Santa, especially the vintage, chubby cheeked one.  Here is the inspiration this week, once again another Pinterest photo:

I had to use my Holiday Style collection by October Afternoon.  The papers and image were perfect!  I also added some of the Die Cuts from the same Collection and of course some Caribbean and Marachino twine from The Twinery.  I also incorporated the Crazy 4 Challenges challenge - Santa; and the sketch from Got Sketch.

This challenge will be open for 2 weeks.

The prize this week will be some Marachino and Caribbean twine from The Twinery.

Remember to link up by next Wednesday December 28th 11:59 PST.  For your chance at the prize.

I can't wait to see what you do!
