(45) A nutty Halloween Swap!

When I decided to host a Halloween Swap I knew it would have to be a pretty different idea...
The petite nut cup swap festered in my mind...
This may look like a  basket but it is a petite nut cup covered in burlap.
I used pipe cleaner for the handle in the shape of an arch. I used some Millinery and then some glimmer misted lace. 
this creepy image of two women was just the thing it need to give it that Halloween feel.

My partner Jill requested rusty creams and this is what I sent along in her nut cup of goodies..


My second partner was Mercedes and she requested a more Victorian Halloween. 
I found this wonderful witch image and then created a cauldron and attached a spell book to the outside.
These are the goodies I sent along to Mercedes....
This is the nut cup I received from Jill
These are the goodies she sent...

Swooning!!!
This is the sweet cup from Mercedes...

These are the goodies I received from her...
Do you see the orange velvet millinery??? ...
yup LOVE it....
She knows the way to my heart...
Thanks Ladies for Playing in my swap and being such wonderful partners...
Happy Halloween!!!
Tabitha
