13 Days of Creepmas Day 12 & 13

Ah my little creeplings...'tis the last day of our blogging Creepmas Party! 

So sorry I missed yesterday, many holiday happenings to keep up with around here :) 

Please enjoy some of my Creepmas appropriate finds on Etsy. I'm still baffled on how to link photos, so I will link their shops above their pics.

These Gothic Christmas Tags are bone chillingly wonderful from

And the stockings were hung by the chimney with care...

AimeesUpcycled (hey, cool name! ;))

How about a nice Gothic Cemetery Centerpiece ?

I *LOVE* these cards..oh GingerDead where have you been all my life? :)

Same shop..this is SO me right now..feeling like a deranged elf sewing gifts..which is why I missed yesterday's post.

It truly feels like the party never ends, as I make gifts in my studio I still have some wonderful witches and ghouls that stay out year round. In my heart it is Halloween all year long! As soon as I am able to come up for air I will be visiting the rest of all the creepers' blogs, I hope you will too!

13 Days of Creepmas Day 8

As a child I loved the Nutcracker Ballet. I loved ballet in general, but the Nutcracker was something I looked forward to every Christmas. Especially since I got to see a live version. The dresses, the sets, the scenes and props..beautiful ballerinas that seemed to float weightlessly and glide across the stage. 

It just occurred to me that I still have no idea what the story line really is here. I'm guessing she's dreaming or something..that her bizarre toy..the nutcracker, somehow turns into a prince..or something. Then this demonic looking Mouse King comes along and he will have none of that..so they fight, Nutcracker wins and then everyone puts on a show for them as they live happily ever after..the end. That's gotta be pretty close right? That  Mouse King scared the hell out of me when I was young. Now that I look at him again..he still does. What is going on there? I'm very thankful that I somehow missed the Mouse King with multiple heads, I would have had nightmares for months. 

 At least this one's not too bad..

 Demonic Mouse King..

Seriously..Evil Mouse King with many heads..as if he didn't have enough help?

Sometimes the Nutcracker is pretty freaky too.

Well it's official..I have blogged more this past week than I have *gulp*..the entire year. It's a Creepmas MIRACLE! *Throwing confetti*  

I swear I'll be a better blogger. I just needed a little inspiration ~smile~

Here's another Creepmas ACEO, I haven't quite settled on a title yet. Jack Frost? Frost on Jackoween? I dunno..but here he is. Inspired by Jack Skellington of course :)

Watercolor pencil and acrylic ACEO.

Creepmas Day 2

Creeping right along...today I'd like to introduce a couple of my favorite SPOOKTACULAR artists!

If you like a lot of creepy in your Creepmas you will love this Zombie Santa Art Doll by TheRogueFairy
Isn't he just spooktacular!?! This one was my favorite Evil Zombie Santa he has already sold. Gives new meaning to "Lady Fingers" doesn't it? What a great imagination!

Here is another favorite artist. Tattered Rags Creepy Dolls by Jodi Cain. She makes wonderful spooky rag dolls all year long. Rag dolls in straight jackets, gothic cuties and more. She's having a give away of this wonderful doll below, you have until Dec. 20th to CLICK HERE  and enter.

Of course I could be here all day listing my favorite Halloween Artists, the list is very long. But these two just *screamed* CREEPMAS and made my heart skip a beat! *Swoon*. Happy Creeping, don't forget to visit the other creepers http://Creepmas.blogspot.com

It's Creepmas time!

Welcome to the 13 Days of Creepmas! This is the first year for this blog event, I hope there are many more to follow! The Celebration of Creepmas is from Dec.1-13th. It is in the spirit of fun! The point is to bring Halloween into the first two weeks of December just like all the stores did in October.

This is my kitten Nico. Well she's a year old now, but she's an October baby. How fitting for a spooky little black cat don't you think? I think we all share in her feelings about seeing Christmas trees being put out on display in stores in the middle of October *grin*.
