31 Days of Halloween - Day 15

Hello folks, and it’s day 15 of the Smeared and Smudged 31 days of Halloween Blog Hop.  All you have to do to take part is to hop through each of the Wicked Blogs that are participating and leave a comment on each project.  All Horrifying Hoppers will receive a Survival Button at the end of the month to proudly post on their blog.

If you’re following the blog hop in order, you’ve arrived here from Teresa’s blog.    If you’ve arrived from elsewhere and you’d like to work your way through all the participating blogs, the blog roll is in the sidebar – just start at the beginning or wherever suits you best.

This is a card made using Karen Burniston's Spiral Circle Pull card die for Elizabeth Crafts, (see theYouTube video for how to put it together)  G45's Eerie Tale papers,   one of the Xcut Build-a-scene dies and the Movers and Shapers bat die.  The cat is from a set by Docrafts.  He comes with a couple of different costumes and sets of props.

Open up the card and the bats "fly" on the acetate spiral and the message is revealed!  

Here's the Vine of it in action.



You'll also notice that the cat is now mirror imaged.  I used Memento ink to stamp onto non-absorbent surfaces and then put the card on top of the stamped image and rubbed the back to lift off the ink.  The image is a bit paler than the direct stamping.  I tried the technique using waxed paper, my craft sheet and a silicon mat (supposed to be for rolling pastry on...like that was going to happen!)  I couldn't see much difference in the quality of the resulting image Once they were both coloured with Promarkers the differences became less noticeable.

Hope you are enjoying the hop.  Don't forget that Scavenger Items will be hidden randomly on the Wicked Blogs, and are not guaranteed to be available every day. You will have to visit blogs to find them. If you find one, you  email  and let us know exactly where it was and your name will go into that scavenger item's drawing. Each person who finds the "hidden" picture will get one entry. The drawing for each scavenger prize will be the day after it was posted and winners will be chosen by random number based on who emailed. Thank you for visiting.  Now, if you’re working your way through the roll, it’s on to Renee.  Bye now!
