Alpha/dictionary challenge – letter J

Hello,

This fortnight the challenge over at The Craft Barn is the letter J. Although the pages were limited in my dictionary, there were a couple of words that sparked my creativity. One of them was jack o’lantern and because we are already October and Halloween is just around the corner, I found that one fitted.



I am busy on a couple of other letters to try to catch up, so be sure to stop by and check those out. (or subscribe so you don’t  miss anything :-))

    1. I first tried to get some red drippage, but didn't really succeed, then I applied some red acrylic paint and was pleased, you can feel the horror.
