Halloween. . .
Another journal page. Theme Thursday's challenge this week is to illustrate Halloween or Autumn. It's still over 100 degrees here, and thoughts of Autumn in this heat takes more than my over-active imagination can muster!
Halloween is a bit easier and gives me the excuse to use 3 pieces of virgin rubber from StampFrancisco" The skull, the sinister bunny and the butler. The background is orange tissue paper applied with matte medium under and over. Each of the images were stamped onto 140# cardstock, cut out and applied with more matte medium. All the treats are stickers from Japan. Some are from Sanrio, the others I'm not sure about. Aside from the cute little treat bag I made for the bunny, everything else is done with an 8mm black Micron pen.
And just to remind you....Sherry's month-long blog party with give-aways and goodies is just a click away! You can find information on my blog HERE, then click your way over to Sherry's blog and join the party!!
Have a great day, Everyone!
