I have been collecting them for years - mostly Tim Holtz but also dollar tree, Hobby Lobby and ebay. I had way more bottles than I knew when I reorg the craft room so was happy to use some of them

I’m glad you like it! I’m thinking people will probably need context though. 
The little guy pushing the ball of Halloween stuff is The Prince, a character from a video game @LovelyMiss and I like called Katamari Damacy. The point of the game is to roll random items into a ball until the ball gets bigger and bigger. Sometimes you can roll up the entire earth. Sometimes you roll up only specific items. In this case, the Prince is rolling up only Halloween stuff! If you haven’t played this game I recommend it. It seems like something a majority of people on LC would think is great. Its really goofy and funny. Just a really strange game.
Oh and the background is pictures from a medical textbook. All pictures of brains. I dunno just felt right.

I received from @LovelyMiss!
I wanted to show the orange heart bubble wrap with the bespoke ribbon plus the super cute card. The box was also lovely!
and for my theme… a snake in a party hat! It’s so wonderful and also very light but still a solid snake. LovelyMiss let me know that the hat can be changed out for any party hat! It survived the USPS perfectly. Such a sweet face! Questions: is it air dry clay? what kind of paint did you use on it? is the background hand drawn/colored?
for the pinterest image 
Thank you, LovelyMiss!

Ooh! This is a very unique one! I bet this is the first of it’s kind! I love the 3d snake and the hat. The textures from the different elements really put it over the top.

Yay! It’s paper clay. I love paper clay so much. (I get the Creative brand in the black package.) I painted him with acrylics. And yep, I just free-handed the pumpkin background with acrylic markers. I tried like at least 30 different background papers before I decided to just make one, haha. And made so many hats before I found the right combo of colors and vibes! His tongue looks like it got stuck down in transport, but you can unstick it for a little more 3D effect. So glad you like it!

Oh yes, that is helpful context, lol! Thank you, again! I literally squeed, “Halloween Katamari?!!?!” when I opened it. So delightful. Also, I agree it’s a game style I think many folks here would like. I own the games on multiple consoles, PC, and Switch and they’re fun to play on all of them.

Interesting theme, is there a story behind the snake in a hat? Love the 3D effect.

Such a fun theme! How cool that you can change headgear! I like the hat, though! The background is lovely with the little pompoms!
