Halloween Post 1 ~ Making spooky stained glass for Gertie



















I bought this outliner sheet at Hobbeycraft and because its a wet, miserable day today, I thought I would give them a go.














I used them for the windows in Gertie's cottage and used my glass paint to fill them in. For a couple of pound for the sheet, I think they are a bargain and they turned out ok :)
The outline goes on...













and then I added a touch of glass paint...


















































Bats on the windows :)















So, that's part of what I have been doing this morning....

.....the other thing I have been doing is taking a photograph for my giveaway... yep... I am thrilled, we now have 250 followers, so as promised I will be holding a giveaway.

I will do the Giveaway blog post after this one with all the details on how to enter :)
