A Little bit of Edgar Allan Poe


Hello everyone,


Yay for Friday,hope you are all okay out there and not fighting over bargains on Black Friday! I know a certain lovely lady is currently busy buying up ALL the crafty bargains...her first name begins with an A....that's all I'm saying :)


This weeks challenge over on the Stampotique blog is use a quote from Edgar Allan Poe....there's quite a few to choose! I narrowed it down to 2,the quote I used and one about art. I was going to do a tag based on the art one but for reason I started doing a heart shape and then remembered,got confused and went with the other quote instead.....I am so all over the place when I craft :/






I rather think 'Lovelyarethesound' looks rather dashing in his Edgar Allan Poe makeover?!



I am entering this into the following challenges:


Stampotique Designers,In the words of Edgar Allan Poe,SDC175

Simon Stamp Weds,Anything Goes

Quoth the Raven ,Anything Poes


Fresco paints,pro markers,the background stamp is from Art Journey and of course the main handsome chap is Stampotique.




Have a lovely weekend everyone

    Got to love this Donna - made me laugh. Great quote and really fab layout. I am avoiding all sales as I will only buy stuff I didn't really want! Nxxx (Well it is only 1.33pm - there is still time....)

    You may have taken a circuitous route to get to the end of this project, Donna, but, however you got there, it is absolutely fantastic! Great pairing of your Stampotique image and the Poe quote! Background is full of color and interest! Great work! Thanks so much for participating in the Stampotique Designers' Challenge this week!

    I took advantage of Black Friday to replace my printer and to get 8 more Stampotique images from AFTH, first time i have taken part, the savings were worth it!

    Gorgeous Tag Donna, the background is superb and i love the corrugated heart, LovelyAreTheSound is perfect. Love what you have made:-) xxx
