Halloween Kitty & Spooky Bat Set 2

Welcome to Day 10 of 31 Days of Halloween Hop by Smeared & Smudged!! We are well on our way into the second week as a Wicked Bloggers, and let me tell you I am having so much fun creating!!! I finally got my mind focused on Halloween and Day of the Dead!!! As a Horrified Hopper it is very exciting to see all of the wonderful creations that all of the other Wicked Bloggers have come up with! I must say this... We have some really awesome talent and mojo happening! So be sure to hop, fly, creep, or crawl through all of the creations each day (you never know where a prize may be hidden)! If you happen to get lost along the way the whole blog roll is in the side bar to the right! If you arrived here from Tori's blog, then you are on track... if you didn't and would like to start from the beginning, head on over to Terra' s blog!!!

My creations today are another set of ornaments for our tree; which at the end of the Hop I will post a final picture with all of them!!! I MUST warn you... painting is the one thing that I have very little experience with!!! LOL!!! Okay on to my creations, so you can be on your way...
