Inner Workings at HDH!



It's time for another Macabre Monday challenge at the Haunted Design House, and now that Halloween is in sight, you can practically taste the excitement in the air in the Minions' Dungeon :D Which is way better than the makodorous stench that usually emanates from that dank hole :P
This week the challenge is Inner Workings, and it's up to you how to interpret that. You can use the inner workings of a clock or machine, or feature some guts and organs, or decorate the inside of your project. I've used a brand new stamp for me, Open Torso from the Gross Anatomy set at Smeared Ink. They have a great range of stamps that look like illustrations from vintage text books, and this is one of them.
These are the challenges I'd like to enter:
Paper Minutes - sketch
Desert Island Crafts - Itinerary 17. I used 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 (no white, torn edge, dry embossing, circle and beads)

Cards and More - red, beige, brown
Meljen's Designs - use a square and a circle
Forever Night Freaky Friday - anything goes
The Play Date Cafe - be inspired by the colours to the right.
Critter Sketch Challenge - anything goes
Totally Stampalicious - embossing

Really lovely design and colors, Susan. Have to say the sentiment you settled on really cracks me up! Who exactly are you planning on sending this one to? Obviously not one of the Minions since we all seem to be missing one of the anatomical parts. LOL xxD
