Made Marian: Oozing Crafty Goodness

Halloween is just around the corner and in an effort to put the crochet hook down for a while I decided to do some themed cross stitch.  I found the pattern in a craft magazine and once that was done I just dressed it up a bit.

I got some orange card stock and cut out a window big enough to see the pumpkin through.  I then attached the cross stitch onto the back of the window.  The orange was then attached to some black card cut to size, to give the effect of a frame. I picked up the little black bats in my local stationary shop and just stuck them on to add to the seasonal theme.

I have this in a frame as a Halloween decoration but it would make a lovely greeting card if you attached the orange paper to a black blank card.

Happy Halloween.
