TGIF 13

Hello fellow Crafters,

Today we are having a  bloghop for 'Friday the 13th' ! Eeeeeek.... Anyway it is all happening over at VivaLasVegaStamps and this is my contribution :


I am not very good with creepy stuff so this is the best I could come up with ! I started off with a postcard sized piece of white card stock which I coloured with Distress Inks in 'Milled Lavender' and 'Dusty Concorde'. I then stamped the background lightly with the clock, the cemetery and the spider web which I extended down the card with a black pen. I heat embossed the cemetary to make is somewhat blacker. 
Next I stamped the skull and coloured it lightly with Copics. I cut it out,  clear embossed it and marked the spot on the card where is was going to go. I then used the same Distress Inks to shade. I then glued the skull down. 
Next I stamped the '13' which is really '31', I reversed it, and used a Dymo labeled to make the "TGIF". The last thing was adding some Tim Holtz rub ons and that was that ! 

I used the following stamps:


Why not check out the rest of the gang's work, it will be worth it.......eeeeeeeek !!!

Happy Freaky Friday !!

  23. He is very menacing with that ghoulish grin of his. It is as though the skull is glowing, set against that purple background.
