Sharon used Martin's Heart and Ophelia's Heart - love the layering and the fabulous lettering:

And - we have Tina back with us as a guest designer this week - Tina used Lulu framed, love how the "black" lines are so light and the colors really pop out:

Let's get to our samples for the week!  My ATC uses Frankenstein's Monster, I printed him directly onto some text paper and colored with Prismacolor markers.  I layered him onto more text paper sprayed with black Smooch Spritz and added some screw brads:

Chelsea used Dracula, love that batty background:

Denice used Freddy, from "A Nightmare on Elm Street" and I gotta tell you, Freddy really freaks me out (as a teen of the '80's, how could he not?!?):

Kim used the fabulously freaky Mr. Hyde, who just speaks for himself with that crazy look in his eye:

Sharon used the Mummy, and I love that little piece of muslin (?) she used behind him, and that cool cross is the perfect touch:

And last, but certainly not least, is our guest designer this week - Jen from Jen's Uncharted Territory!  Thank you so much for joining us this week, Jen, we love seeing your creations every week and I'm glad I've gotten to know you!  Jen also used the Mummy and really did a cool job layering the fabric across her ATC to resemble the mummy's layers:

We hope you will join us this week - any famous monster will do!  Use your imaginations and consider combining our challenge with one of the other fabulously freaky challenge blogs out there like Haunted Design House or Smudgy Antics (just remember -we have a limit of 5 additional challenges to link up with if you want to be considered for the prize or top 3 here).  Peace.

Saturday Reminder & SWAP SIGN-UP

Hello there everyone - so I'd like to organize an ATC swap.  I will add the Inlinkz to this post for sign-ups, just link to your main blog and make sure to use an e-mail address that you check regularly.  

We'll have our first swap be an Anything Goes swap - I'll keep the sign-ups open until July 31 at 7:00 p.m. EST, at which time I will let you know how many ATC's you'll need to commit to.  If you need to back out, I would ask you to please notify me within 24 hours of me assigning you to a group.

I'll ask you to have your ATC's to me by August 30.  I'll have them all packaged up and sent out to you all by mid-September.  To make this fun and stress-free for everyone, flakers won't be tolerated (for real) and I will send out what I have by a pre-determined date, which will be made clear during the confirmation of groups.  If yours arrive late, I'll use the postage you send to return them to you.  Thank you for understanding.  I hope this sounds like fun to you all and I look forward to trading ATC's with my fabulous challenge participants!  I don't know about you all, but I've amassed quite a collection of them myself and look forward to sharing with you all!

**UPDATE**  So here are some more details:  I won't know the number of ATC's until the sign-ups are over.  Please don't sign up if you cannot commit to "any"  number - there might be 2 or 3, there might be 7 or 8.  I will ask everyone to send along the amount of postage it cost to mail your package to me, along with one additional loose stamp which will be returned to you if it's not used.  This is open to all countries, as you'll be paying your own return postage anyway!  :)   Let me know if you have any other questions.
