Halloween is almost upon us and I have been getting in the mood by creating a spooky page for my art journal as this weeks design team project for Visible Image.
I started by creating a background with Distress Oxide inks. I swiped them on my mat, spritzed with water and dabbed my page in until I was happy.
I then used the Skull Shadow stencil and black ink across half of the page.
On the opposite side I planned to use the Guardian Angel stamp, so I stamped out the wings in black ink, but I wanted a hint of red on them so I embossed over them with Candied Apple Distress Glaze. I also added some background stamping using the script stamp from Scripted Streets, and the Grunge Tones set.
Some embossed Ink Splats worked beautifully as blood too .
I happened to have a piece of card with red spray ink on in my stash, and I stamped the angel on this and fussy cut. Doesn't he look dramatic!
Before I glued him on I used acrylic ink to drip some 'blood' from where his hands would go. I also stamped out some skulls from Mr Bone Jangles, and old favourite from my Visible Image collection!
I adhered my angel to my page and gave him some shadow with watercolour paint, then finished off with the sentiment,some red ink splats and some torn pieces from a Ripped Fishnet die cut. Super spooky and dark but so much fun to make!
If you celebrate Halloween I hope you have a wonderful time on Monday.
