Ok crafters, we are in October so that means spooky ghosts, scary pumpkins and all things halloween. I must say that Halloween is one of my favorite holidays since I get to dress up, hehe.

Ok before I move on I would like to stress again our rules. We have been seeing more than two entries per person so we had to delete the extra entries. Please make sure to enter only up to two entries. Thank you!

VSC # 14 "Washi Tape Theme" Challenge

We want to see what you can create using washi tape. I know many of us crafters just love collecting washi tape (like me!) but sometimes are not sure how to use it on our projects. Well our DT did an amazing job showing us how they used their washi tape and now we want to see what you can do.

Our sponsor My Craft Spot is giving away a lovely stamp set perfect for Halloween

My Craft Spot: I have loved paper crafting for as long as I can remember (since preschool, really!) My Craft Spot started out as a place to share my ideas through pictures and video tutorials. Then I discovered scrunched seam binding! I started hand dyeing the seam binding and now I have over 30 beautiful colors in my store! (I think I am addicted! LOL!) I also have 50 yummy colors of Bakers Twine from The Twinery, Trendy Twine (3 colors twisted together!), Divine Twine, Traditional twine and my own hand dyed Vintage Twine! Last year I started my own line of high quality photopolymer stamps! I now have 35 sets including 5 new sets just released this month. I also have coordinating metal dies! Come visit My Craft Spot for lots of ideas and inspiration, videos and weekly challenges with prizes!

Shipping is always FREE at My Craft Spot within the US and Canada and only $5.00 outside the US and Canada!

Now here is some inspiration by our super talented Design Team
