Good morning, happy Thursday, and Happy Birthday to me! I'm now officially a very old bird but never mind eh!
I'ts my turn to share my second piece for the Country View Crafts Spooky challenge, so you know the routine, lots of piccies, and not so many words.
You can tell I made this a while ago, it was still the middle of Summer. All the paints and mediums are by DecoArt and the stamps are by Stampendous.
The door has been painted front and back with DecoArt Americana Chalky Finish paint in white and blue to give a peeled paint effect.
Then a coat of Quin Gold Media Acrylic to age it.
Lots more washes of Media Acrylic to give it a more worn effect.
Time to stamp now, this is by Stampenedous, and it been painted with more media paint.
The stamp around the edge is also by Stampendous and it's called Chilling.
On the reverse of the door I stencilled the Andy Skinner stencil with white Modelling Paste and stamped with Andy Skinner stamps.
A little bit more stamping.
This is my favourite bit, I wanted my Skeleton Lady to be there when you opened the door, so she's been stamped on acetate and highlighted with a white gel pen.
I love that you can see right through her. Little things and little minds lol.
This is how it looks with the door shut, kind of spooky....
Well done, you've made it to the end, give yourself a badge!
Please join in with our spooky challenge, there's a chance to win £20 to spend in the shop.
I'm also entering this into the Lost Coast Designs Scary or Weird challenge, and Dream In Darkness anything goes (except cute).
Thanks very much for looking and have a very happy (or spooky) week xx
Yes I've been watching Star Wars films again lol. I watched Andy Skinner on TV last week, so I had to have a play with all things Skinneresque (is that even a word??) anyway here it is.
All of the stamps, paints, and mediums are by Andy Skinner and DecoArt. This is the front of my slide mailer. There's a bit of the old peeled paint technique going on here.
The inside - rusted and crackled to within an inch of its cardboard!
And the back - this is an old clear stamp set of AS's, not one of the newer Stampendous sets.
This was fun to make, but I was glad when I finished 'cos the board wouldn't have stood another coat of paint.
I'm entering this into the Dream In Darkness challenge.
Have a great week, and thanks very much for looking x
Time to stamp now, this is by Stampenedous, and it been painted with more media paint.
