Happy Dia de Muertos - ATCoin by Leigh!

Howzit Creative Friends!
I hope you all had a SPOOktacular Halloween yesterday!  Mine was brilliant with lots of wonderful Trick or Treaters and, to my delight, many declared that my house was the best in the neighbourhood with lots of photo posing with my outdoor decor going on, Woohooo👻

Here's a peek at my Halloween home this year🎃

 Now it's time to plan my Christmas decorating, YAY🎄

Just a quickie reminder that you've got until tonight at midnight (pacific) to finish your 31 Days of Halloween blog hopping and commenting and then my mammoth task of re-visiting over 300 blogs posts and social media sites begins tomorrow, YIKES🙀  I will announce the WINNERS...soooooon....if you don't hear from me by mid-Nov please send a search party LOL😆

 I've got a little project to share with you today in celebration of Dia de Muertos - the Day of the Dead.  Dia de Muertos is a literal translation of All Souls' Day and it is a joyous 3 day Mexican tradition where the lives of passed loved ones are honoured and remembered🎉 

LeighSBDesigner Val is currently hosting an ATCoin Swap in my LeighSBDesigns Facebook Fan Group.  The theme is Anything Goes with an optional Halloween twist.

One of my swap coins features the fabulous Oddeigh Catrina - Dia de Muertos.
She's now on FLASH SALE until midnight pacific on Nov 2nd! 

She's coloured up with Copics, fussy cut out and mounted onto a Distress Oxide galaxy sky background which is a remnant of the background I made for my 31 Days of Halloween step card.

Turn out the lights and the stars glow in the dark.....so pretty and magical!
 

Thanks for stopping by to see today's featured project and now off you go to complete your 31 Days of Halloween blog hopping, enjoy👻

Happy Creating!

Closer look at the skulls, I even drew tiny skulls on her boots!

 The Oddleigh Catrina set consists of 2 separate digis.  You get Oddleigh Catrina and the Dia de Muertos text.  I collaged the two images in Photoshop to create this scene for my colouring video.
