Ooky Spooky

Been playing around with more new Halloween stamps from Inkadinkado.

Voodoo Charms Necklace

I’m in love with the Voodoo Doll stamps, a cute witch and funky cat. I thought they’d make perfect shrink plastic charms so I stamped them on white shrink plastic using Staz-On ink, colored them with colored pencils, punched a hole for the jump rings and strung them on a chain. I also added a small domino with the word “Voodoo”.

Death Head Moth Collage

This Death Head Moth stamp is spooky but also seemed a little vintage to me, like an insect specimen so I made a collage with a vintage feel with it. It’s on layers of pattern paper embellished with vintage lace, a vintage button and a chipboard label with brads.

Sinister Trick or Treat Bag Card

This X-Ray of a Trick or Treat bag is just so evil! Along with the candy there is a razor blade in the apple, brass knuckles and a big knife. Probably not a stamp for everyone but I like twisted things so I think it’s really cool 🙂 I added some poison labels cut from some pattern paper and added the color tinting with small sponges and ink.

Book Giveaway!!

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

This is my first giveaway on my blog and I’m really excited about it! I recently participated in a design challenge put on by Klutz Publications using their new book “Paper Fashions Fantasy” and they’ve generously donated 2 books for me to giveaway to my readers!!

I really LOVE this book and had so much fun working with it! It’s got fantastic plastic templates, papers, ribbons, beads, sequins. glitter glue and cute little hangers, along with ideas and instructions for making paper doll clothes and accessories especially geared toward fairies, princesses, witches and mermaids (right up my alley, right??:)) For the contest I was inspired by my favorite princess Snow White and one of the best villains ever, the Evil Queen. It was really easy to use the templates and supplies that came with the book to make my own versions of these classic outfits. I will definitely be using this book in the future to add fairy wings, witches hats, crowns and more to my stamped and collage creations.
