Witch's Clothes Line

      It may come as a shock to some of you that even witches have to do laundry and hang things to dry, but I offer this as proof!  Why do they have to hang their clothes instead of just running them through the dryer?  Ask Hansel or Gretel - most of their huts deep in the forest have no electricity so the washing has to be done in a tub and clothes are then hung out to dry.  I'm not sure how the cat on this line got washed!  lol

     This card is done completely with small die cuts taken from scraps in the basket on my work table.  The laundry line itself was cut three times in order to get the various Halloween colors.  Another way of dealing with the loss (however temporary I may hope it is) of my collection of some 9,000+ digis.  



Dies used are:  
Clothes line = Cheery Lynn (mounted on dimensional tape)
Moon = QuicKuz
Bats = Impression Obsession

I suppose nobody gets to escape the household chores. Great use of die cuts on here.
I hate to imagine what is going on with your digis...

Connie this has really raised a smile with me today with it's story and fabulous displayed washing line. Poor cat, maybe s/he was taking a peep in that spell book. A pain to have to cut out thrice to get the different coloured clothing but you can make three cards now each with different coloured clothes on every washing line. Many thanks for sharing over @ Paperbabe Stamps and joining our Dimensions challenge, best of luck. Tracey (DT)

Yep, you are telling the truth!
Hans and Grietje as we call them in The Netherlands don't know what a dryer is probably so well done! A look behind the scene
