LeighSBDesigns 31 DOH Day 13

 During October you will see many Halloween-y projects on my blog as I am joining in with

and 2023 Crypt Keepers Countdown to Halloween

Find Leigh's main post here

So let's celebrate Halloween!! 

As usual I will add daily retro Halloween postcards from Vintage Image Craft. 

Halloween scarecrows with jack-o'-lantern heads!!! What marvelous illustrations on this 1915 postcard set, published by the Whitney Co.

I like to share something old and something new.

Remember last year when I came across this coffin in a charity shop and painted it black.

I didn't add any embellishments.

At the same time I found a puppet - I renovated this to make it a little more 'witchy' and then put her in the coffin...

.

My new make... I decided to embellish the coffin:

First I added a set of coffin shapes cut on my Cricut. These are based on

Leigh's Slimline Nesting Coffins SVG

I added stamped spiders and drawn cobwebs on the top layer.

I then added Leigh's Graveyard - Artist Trading Coffin painted with water colours.

And as always I like to add the skeletons hopping!

Happy Hopping!
