Haunted Design House is back .....

Time for a new challenge at HDH, some things chaged though so you might want to go to the blog to check the new rules out


the theme is what's new pussycat, and I went for a new teqnique, stamping on tissuepaper and decoupage that on wood that has a layer of texture crackle on it.

her the pics

Deco Art products used: Texture crackle, Gesso, Decou page, Americana Acrylics in True Ochre, Hauser medium Green, Putple Pizzaz Tangerine and Sea Breeze.

The Skulls are a rubber stamp designed by Rick St.dennis available at Smeared Ink. The rest of the stamps is all from de Stempelwinkel

I took a piece of wood, gessoed it and added crackle texture over it, let it dry. Paint it using the Americana acryclic, just water the paint down and put in in where it should be , more or less, no need to be precise.

when paint is dry add a layers of  decoupage and put the tisue paper on the wood, add another layer decoupage on top of the tissuepaper, The crcks shine through, it is hard to see in the picture, but it looks like this is stamped directly on crackled wood

I will enter the following challenges

Air Castle

I used the air castle to make a tag, the background is Colorit and a rubbber stamp, the edges are Craft Twinkles by Deco Art, the quote is written usong Deco Art Paper effects

The digi is coloured using Prismacolor pencils and paper stump with odourless white spirit,. cut out and glued to the background.  The ribbon is coloured using distress ink in Peacock Blue and Mustard Seed, sprayed water on the ribbon, wrinkled it and used heatgun to dry and melt it a bit, that makes it look the way it is now, a bit aged and wrinkled.

The Air Castle is a Rick St. dennis digital stamp and can be found here

Creepmas day 11

Welcome to day 11 of Creepmas, organized by Smeared Ink, you can find the blogroll in the sidebar

Today a page in my leatherbound journal :-), love to work in it but hard to take a good picture

I used Witch Tree digi stamp by Rick St. dennis coloured using Prismacolor pencils and cut out.

Deco Art products used for the background: Americana Acrylic Gesso, Modeling paste, Americana Pearlizing medium. Glamour Dust Glitter paint in Turquoise Sparkle and Purple Passion. Americana Mixed media stencil Aztec pattern. Deco Art Tradtions in Naphthol red light, Carbon black, Ultramarine Blue, red Violet,

I bought this journal at Barnes and Noble in Santa Monica, and althoug the paper is thin it works great with paint.  I did bacecous this page with gesso and then mixed ultramarine traditons paint with pearlizing medium to get some shimmer in the paint, I painted the page blue and added the patterns in Naphthol red light and red violet. I used stencils for that.  Then I mixed modeling paste wiht the glamour dust in purple and used the bubble stencil. Let the modeling paste dry and added the turquise sparkle. I used some carbon black mixed with water to wash over the page to make it less bright.
You can still see the shimmer through the black wash.

Glued the digi on and wrote the senti, it is by Jack Skelington :-) (Nightmare before Christmas)

here a pic to show you the texture by the modeling paste
