Here's a look at my latest paperHaus DT work & free paper

Halloween is right around the corner and that means there is alot of halloween related creations on the internet right now.

I created a little something for paperHaus. It talks about what Halloween means for me as a New Zealander who was brought up without all the 'hype' that surrounds Halloween now.

So I just went wild with what is my 'typical' Trina style with lots of journaling. And I even created my own backing paper. LOTS of ink, stitching, glimmermist, & stamps. So much fun. In fact so much fun that I decided to do something special. Check out below for more info... in the meantime, take a look at some of the close up's.

I've used some delicious Prima flowers that I've sprayed with glimmermist, then added in some iridescent medium.

Can you see that glorious shine on the flowers? That's the iridescent medium. Just use it like paint on your flowers and you get a wonderful shimmer!

I also found some gorgeous old Sassafras alphabet stickers. Just the perfect colour and size!

And as for punches and dies, just adore them. They can add so much interest to your pages without added dimension. And the best part is once you've brought them, you can use them over and over again!

So, as promised, I had so much fun creating my own paper, that I decided to make some more and GIVE IT AWAY!

That's right. Below are the two papers as a free download (without the watermark!).

i am SO with you on the Halloween thing!!!
why on earth do you encourage your children to ask strangers...even neighbours you dont know for sweets!!! does not make sense to me!!
you want lollie, dress ups...have a party!!!

not a fan of globlins or witches either....but most happy to support all light parties!!! much much safer and more KIWI then this US holiday!!!

Like you I am not a fan of Halloween so we have a "no sweets given" notice that goes on our closed gates. Instead we offer to say prayers for the people visiting and their "departed souls" the people who lived before them. Our church celebrates All Souls Day the Sunday closest to 1st November.
Your papers are gorgeous.
