AC - 31 Days of Halloween ....

.....  It's the start of the creepiest bloghop of the year - welcome to 31 Days of Halloween which is organised by Smeared Ink.  As part of the Airless Chamber EDT, it's my pleasure to start us off.  I have a fun and rather spooky Halloween card today:

Stamps: Rick St Dennis Digi - Fun House Carnival de la Nuit; Waltzingmouse - Midnight Feast; Recollections - Haunted
Inks: Memento - London Fog; Versamark; Versafine - Onyx Black
Dies: Die-namics - In & Out Diagonal Stitched Rectangle Stax #4
Accessories: White Lustre Card; Stampin' Up! Card - Black; Copic Markers; Staedler - Triplus Fineliners; Wink of Stella - Clear; White Embossing Powder; Clear Embossing Powder

I think this Fun House is really spooky, fully of skulls and ghosts and with a mad demons on top of the building.  I printed the image on white card and coloured it with Copic markers, Staedler Fineliners and added sparkle with a clear Wink of Stella brush.  I used lots of neon on the fun house to give a feeling of madness.  I used a stitched die cut to cut out the image, stamped the sentiment in black and embossed with clear powder.  I finished the image by adding a night sky and ground. I made the base from black card - it's a large card, measuring 5" × 7".  I stamped a skeleton and skeleton hands in Versamark and heat embossed with white powder.  I attached the finished image to the card with dimensional tape.  On the inside I cut a panel of white card and simply stamped another skeleton.

Here's a close up photo showing the sparkle on the skeletons and ghosts - it looks fabulous in bright autumn sunlight!!  I find that taking the picture slightly out of focus actually allows the shimmer to show up better.

You can find the full Blogroll of participants for the blog hop over at Airless Chambers on the sidebar.  If you like this super creepy Fun House, you can find it at Rick's Zibbet shop.  Not only can you find this image, but you'll find a whole selection of wonderful Halloween images, from cute to downright scary!!  That's all for now - see you soon.
