31 days of Halloween day 3

This is day 3 of 31 days of Halloween (for details click linkie)  organized by Smeared and Smudged. Blogroll in the sidebar

And I am also a Cryptkeeper in the countdown to Halloween, see the list of the other 192 participants here

Another Art journal page and also a tag,

For the AJ Page I used  Deco Art Americana acrylic paints, the digi is a Rick St.Dennis image called Count Calabaza, the quote (from the net) is written using an Edding 8400 DVD marker

 

I will enter this page in the Craft Barn Dictionary challenge letter J ( Jack -O-Lantern)

 

next is a tag, using a stencil and Deco Art Texture Crackle, colours Neutral and Deep Tuscan Red, first prepare the tag using Primer Sealer, let dry and add the texture crackle. When drying the crackle appears. I painted the tag using Deco Art Traditions Carton Black. When dried I added some So soft fine glitter paint colour Sizzling red over the texture crackle ,wiped it in the crackles  and removed most of the red. Fininshed the tag with a layer of Triple Thick gloss Glaze.

The bats and the senti are stamps , stamped using white stazon.

 

I wil enter this tag in the Haunted Design House challenge 177 Dimensional Halloween

and in the Smudgy Antics challenge broken heart

 

 

have fun hopping and see you tomorrow for day 4

 

 

Alpha dictionary letter G

LOL   I think it's obvious what word I chose for the letter G in the Alpha Dictionary challenge over at the Craft Barn Blog, well actually I had choise of 3 at least.

Ghost, Goblin and Ghoul, these are my favorit G words by far.......

Can't do all three I guess but I wanted to use a quote that must sound familiar to anyone who has ever been to Phantom Manor in Disneyland Paris. It has both Goblin and Ghoul in it so thought to just cut both words out of my dictionary.

But fair is fair, have to chose one word so I'll go for Goblin  :-)

 

The image used is Lady Greystone  a Rick St. Dennis digi stamp, she reminds me of the bride haunting Phantom Manor, looking for her groom (the poor guy didn't show up at the wedding, he kinda died, someone hung him).

The background is a gelli plate print.

Paint used:  Deco Art americana acrylic paint,colours:

DA 232 Vivid Violet

DA 131 Hauser Light Green

DA 310 Spiced Pumpkin

DA 011 Lemon Yellow

DA 036-03 True blue

DA 194-3 Marigold

 

 

the Rick St. Dennis digi is coloured using Caran d'ache luminance 6901 coloured pencils, a paper stump and odourless white spirit

 

The tekst is handwritten I used Edding 780 paint markers, in white and black, the doodles are also done with these markers

here my dictionary word
