Hello! It’s time for Day 27 of the Smeared & Smudged 31 Days of Halloween. Where has this month gone??? Today I made a project for the latest challenge from A Day for Daisies. The theme is Anything Halloween, and used their Ravens Waiting digi. I LOVE this company. It’s certainly one of my favorites.
Isn’t this a fantastic image??? I colored the image itself with Spectrum Noir markers, and the background was done with watercolors.
You don’t need many colors for this image…but I look forward to experimenting a bit with it with some unusual colors.
I used my favorite punch (Drippy Goo), and 2 dies from Dreamweaver Stencils, called Nesting Frames. My sentiment is from Smeared Ink‘s Quoth the Raven set. Please be sure to visit the rest of the Wicked Bloggers, all listed in my sidebar. Thanks for stopping by. Have a creep-tastic day!
Hi Alison! I'm just hopping round to catch up on all the cool stuff I've missed this last week! I'm loving your stencil work – I will be back to read them all in detail! I got my stencils from Dreamweaver last week and have my first card on my blog today – the Damask background, love it! I'm loving your big 'H' cant wait to see what you do with it in the end. I love your Dilly Beans card too! Adding that challenge to my list! lol Hope you enjoy the last few days! mo xxx
Your use of limited colors on the skull is brilliant and watercolors make such a wonderful background! Love those die cuts and how you placed them and of course the drippy goo!
Love this canvas! It is so gorgeous, the coloring is so amazing, so soft and haunting! Brilliant! Love the background elements, so unique!

The focal image itself is beautiful and haunting. Your addition of layers and texture makes this an artpiece.
The larger frame is stunning, eyecatching. Nice balance with sentiment placement.
You should add this to Annie Walls' Nevermore Rapport party on the 30th.
Gorgeous, Alison! Love the way you colored the image and your design is fabulous! xxD
I love the way you have combined all the elements here–the sum is greater than the parts! Wonderful piece.
Great project. Love your coloring.
That image is truly wicked cool and I love how you've coloured it and featured it on your card!
die cutting envy again. and the drippy goo one is my fav too.
I must get the drippy goo die!! Fabulous image!
Beautiful card! Love the coloring of that gorgeous image.
Fab image and you've colored out beautifully. Love the drips along the bottom too.
This really turned out great! Yes, the image is great! I love the non-traditional color combo you used as well too! All fits perfectly!
