Hello there and welcome to Day 20 of the Smeared & Smudged 31 Days of Halloween. The 20th of every month is a new challenge over at Chromatic Craze, which I am proud to be on the DT for. Haven’t heard of us? Well, we are fairly new…but we are also a lot of fun, so perhaps you will want to join in with us! Each month, we will give you a 4 color challenge. You’ve got to use at least 3 of the colors, and you are allowed to use black, white, skin tones, and a small percentage of other colors. Point is, you’ve got to make the colors we give you the focus. These are the colors for the month.
I decided to go with an image from Rick St. Dennis for this challenge, figuring that one of his scenes would be just perfect for it.
I used the Ghost Town Church for this tag. You can buy it right now in Rick’s brand new Zibbet Shop. I colored the church with Spectrum Noir markers, and painted the background with watercolors.
My tag was painted with a fabulous metallic copper acrylic paint. I then stamped a wood grain image on top with a brown ink. My sentiment was made with a Just Rte alphabet stamper. Some funky fibers that have some of the colors in the palette, and this baby was done. Whatdaya think???
Yesterday, Dog’s Mom asked me if I thought of the technique I used on my creepy tree card myself. I wish that I did! But honestly, I found out about it via one of the Technique Sheets that Dreamweaver Stencils has. It’s called “Ink Transfers with Memories Mist.” You can view all of the Technique Sheets HERE. Thanks for all of your questions through out the month. I am happy to answer them!
So please visit the Chromatic Craze Blog, and maybe even join in with us! We would love to see you there. And be sure to say hello to all of the Wicked Bloggers, all listed in my side bar. Thanks for stopping by. Have a fang-tastic day!
this is a wonderful little ghost town church, nicely colored. The background is lovely with the texture and the metallic look!
