Trick or Treat ATC

Hello,

Here is an ATC I made using the digital stamp set Love You to the Bone from Vera Lane Studio.

I used Distress Inks for the background in Spiced Marmalade and Hickory Smoke.

I stamped some bats and a graveyard using black Archival Ink.

I coloured her with Prismacolour markers and fussy cut her out. I used Glossy Accents on her eyes and Stickles on her bow and heart.

I edged around the sentiment with a black Gel pen.

Halloween Witch Shaker ATC

Hello,

Here is a shaker ATC I made using the digital stamp set Little Witch from Vera Lane Studio. I made this for the September Halloween Swap in the Vera Lane Studio FB group.

To make the shaker part:
I used 2 ATCs. For the 1st ATC, I simply attached some Halloween paper that has iridescent spider webs on it (set aside) 
I cut out a window from a second ATC to make a frame. I coloured it with Distress Inks in Hickory Smoke and Black Soot. Working on the backside of this piece, I attached a piece of acetate and added some foam tape all along the sides to give the confetti some room to move. I added silver, green, and purple confetti for the shaker bits. 
I then peeled off the backing to the foam tape and carefully laid the 1st ATC on top. 
Flip the right way around and viola!

I coloured her and the crow with Prismacolour markers and fussy cut them out. I added Glossy Accents to her buttons/skull and on the crow's eyes. I used clear Wink of Stella on her hat and eyelids.

I attached them along with an iridescent sticker to the front of the shaker.

Skull Couple Altered Playing Cards

Hello,

Here are a couple altered playing cards I made using the digital stamp set Love You to the Bone from Vera Lane Studio.

I gessoed both of the cards before I started. I applied 2 colours of Gelatos to each card and sprayed the one side and let it drip. 

I coloured all of the images with Prismacolour markers and fussy cut everything out. 

I added Glossy Accents to the eyes of the flowers, the 2 hearts on the girl, and both of their eyes as well.

I popped the skull flowers up on foam squares.

I used clear Wink of Stella on his shirt and on her bow. 

I added an epoxy heart to the middle of her bow and an epoxy star to the top of the boy's card.

I used Tim Holtz's word stickers for the sentiments.

I added black and white striped washi tape along the bottom of both cards.

Bleeding Skulls Altered Coffin

Hello,

Here is a coffin box from Michaels that I altered. This box plays a spooky laugh when you open it.

I started by painting the entire thing with black Gesso. I then sprayed it with Tattered Angels Glimmer spray in Trunk Bay.

I added Tim Holtz’s Crackle paint in brushed pewter to the sides and rubbed it with my finger.

I haven't quite decided what I wanna do to the inside so I left it blank. I painted it with red acrylic paint and covered it with black Gesso. While it was still wet, I rubbed most of the gesso off with a baby wipe. 

I bought a bag of skeleton hand from Michaels. I painted one with silver acyrlic paint and hot glued it to the top.

Now for my most favourite part of this project…the bleeding skulls. These skulls were from a bracelet I bought at Michaels that I disassembled. For the blood I used red 3D fabric paint.

Lastly I added a silver foam bat sticker and super sparkly spider to the top.

Hello,

I stamped a skull and spider web from a Halloween set from Hampton Art.

The full skeleton is from the $1 bin at Michaels. I stamped him with black Staz On and embossed him in clear.

I used red fabric paint for the blood coming out of the skeleton's eyes. 

Thanks for having a look.

Oddball Art Co. Witch Card

Hello, 

I'd like to share a card I made using a digital stamp called Witch Girl on Broom No. 79 from the Oddball Art Co. 

Here's a look:

I coloured her with Prismacolour markers and Copics for her skin. 

The background paper is from a 12 x 12 pack from Me & My Big Ideas called Trick or Treat. The spiderwebs give off a irresdescent sparkle when they catch the light.

I attached a little die cut spider to her broom and there's a "skull spider" [lol] in the corner.

I dyed the purple mesh ribbon with Dylusions Ink Spray in Crushed Grape and Tattered Angels spray to give it some sparkle.

I went around the sentiment in a silver Gel pen.

Wicked Witch Birthday Card

Hi everyone,

For this wicked witch card, I ended up altering an image from The Octopode Factory.

I used the Devil Girl digital stamp but I cut off her pitchfork and horns. I added a witch hat [freebie from the Octopode blog] and skull.

Here's a look:

She is popped up on foam dots and is coloured with Prismacolour markers. 

The skull and crossbones ribbon is from Michaels and so are the 3d skull stickers. The bottle of poison is a Martha Stewart epoxy sticker that I bought last Halloween. 

There are a bunch of spooky words printed on the background scrapbook paper and I stamped tiny skulls onto some plain purple paper. 

My favourite part of the card is her glittery "skull stick" :D  

The sentiment says 'have a wicked birthday' and I think it fits well with her.
