🎃
~~~~~~~

So let's celebrate Halloween!!
And we are over Half-way!!

I am just continuing from yesterday with my Haunted Houses poem book.

This illustrates the poem Haunted Houses by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.


Yesterday I showed you this page:


Today I have the second page with the second verse for you:



The spider web is a Tim Holtz stamp, the door is from Dark Room Door. Once again they were stamped with black Archival directly onto the marbled background. I added a bit of penwork, the verse trimmed and with black soot Distress Ink around the edges and two more ghosts. These were again cut with tracing paper and with a touch of Zig clear pen on the top. Please click on the photograph to see them better!


I will add this second page to Leigh's Linky!

And I am very pleased to be participating in the Countdown to Halloween Blog Hop



Happy Hopping!

    Those ghosts make me think of the dementors in Harry Potter. Great spooky book.
