🎃 LeighSBDesigns annual 31 Days of Halloween Blog Hop🎃

I will be sharing today's Halloween make on Leigh's page...Day 1

~~~~~~~
First one more postcard from Vintage Image Craft





And then another page from my Halloween scrapbook...

I hope you will find this one pretty spooky...



The main stamp set I have used for this is from Visible Image - Glimmer of Light.
stamped on kraft, a little colour added with Copics, and then cut out.
I also added a couple of my spider stamps...



The base is a square of kraft paper, layered with three strips pf paper from my scraps.



Again I added a tag...Distress Oxide - Worn Watercolour (placed on kraft tag).

Method:
  1.  Stamp image with Archival ink on watercolour cardstock.
  2.  Create a distressed background using any colour ink or stain.
  3.  Apply Distress Oxide to craft sheet.
  4. Pick up colour from sheet with waterbrush.
  5. Watercolour image.
  6. Dry layers to build opacity of watercolour.

The candlestick die is from Elizabeth Crafts.



I paper pieced some pink paper to the flame and the light bulb - in reality these are much the same colour as the skulls (Magenta Copic).





Happy Hopping!
