Halloween fun!

Vanessa from fanciful twist has inspired lots of bloggers to host halloween parties today! I had planned on putting one together myself, but its not happening girls.. sorry. My superwoman powers must be on vacation or something because I just couldnt get it together!

but so as not to let anyone down and in honor of halloween, I am posting all the pics I've collected from the halloween shadow box and pinkeep swaps that i hosted! And I dont think you'll be disappointed! so many wonderful little pieces of halloween inspired art to see!

The swap is pretty much done and over with. There are still a few girls working on and getting ready to mail theirs out, so when I have more pics, I'll post them! so.. Enjoy what i have here for now!
