Halloween is coming, Great Crafters! Oh, I love this time of year.

This challenge is open to anything that sparks your imagination and is inspired by or related to a theme park.

If anyone had told me I’d be spending Halloween night surrounded by enthusiastic Disney adults, Iā€™d have said they were absolutely right.

This month, we’re soaking up the sunshine in Orlando, FL, USA, and attending Magic Kingdom’s enchanting Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party.

This month, our inspiration board takes its cue from Halloween, the vibrant hue of orange, and the beloved pumpkin patch.

Come on, let’s get going. It’s time for the design team creations. Just look. Nothing but wonders as far as the eye can see. Oh, Great Crafters, you’ll have to leave comments for us! Yes, that’s the way. Thank you, oh, Great Ones!

Eden draws her color inspiration from the board above; however, her topic inspiration comes more from the Halloween Horror Nights party at Universal than the Not So Scary party at Disney.
This month, Makira draws inspiration from the latest board to create a delightful fall card. With the help of Tim Holtz’s fantastic products, she has crafted a sweet design that’s all set to be sent out in the mail.

This month is a big month! All you have to do is step into your craft room, create something magical, and share it. And yes, it’s totally legal! Share your creation by adding a link in the Inlinkz located at the bottom of this post, or grace Instagram with your masterpiece and tag us @parkhoppingmyhappyplace.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

What’s the cure for creative block? A chocolate-cream and our inspiration page.

By the way, what happened to the writing in this post? Oh, it was transformed to mimic the style of a noted pumpkin story. Have you noticed? This is the time of the month to write down your guess below.

Just wait and see! Theme park inspiration is real! I’ll find enchanting artistry to serve as a wellspring of inspiration! The great crafters will post their links and I’ll be waiting for them!

Farewell, farewell, farewell! Thanks for everything!

Makira!

  6. Right now my craftroom is my entire house haha! We’ve been doing some renovations, which can get exhaustingly loud and a pain keeping a dumpster rental in our driveway. We’re still doing our best to enjoy the fall season though!

    Oh! And I agree with everyone else, Charles Schultz and It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. My favorite!

  7. Great inspiration cards, Eden and Makira!

    I have a quick question- what time does this challenge close on the last day of the month? It’s 10:20 PM CST and I stopped by to post an entry… only to learn that the challenge is already closed. I’m sure it is a time zone issue on my part… but would love to have that info so that this doesn’t happen again. (I did try to find the info on your site so that I could make note of it… but had no luck. That might be because I’m in a chocolate induced coma… because my hubby bought M&Ms and Butterfinger minis this year and we had very few kiddos come by due to cold and rainy weather. So…I imbibed!!!

    • Usually the challenge will end at 12noon the 30th of the month, except for February which it will close on the 28th. I’m sorry for the confusion. Please post your cards from yesterday to this month’s challenge instead; I already saw the little witch and she is adorable!!! I try to keep the challenge up as long as possible; however, I do need a little time to write the winners posts.
