Even though we are in the heart of summer, this is the time of year I get so excited to dive into my Halloween creations. Looking forward to the arrival of my new Tim Holtz seasonal new releases that I just ordered from Simon Says Stamp! In the meanwhile I wanted to create a Halloween themed entry for the CC3C sponsored by Inspiration Emporium. The background was made using Distress Paints and the halloween words background stamp. Using the paint as a resist I then went over with Distress inks. Also put it through the matching embossing folder for additional texture. The Rickety House was done in the industrial theme as Tim demonstrates in his Compendium of Curisioties vol 3. I added the picket fence, painted with picket fence crackle paint and distressed with black soot. I just love adding distress stickles to just about everything-as I did to highlight the windows (mustard seed) and doors/sills (black soot). Die cut a bat and added distress glitter for an added touch to the spooky sky! I just love Halloween and cannot wait to share more creations in the weeks and months to come.

Pam...this is really cute! The second I saw your thumbnail I was drawn in. :) This also make me panic just a bit to think that Halloween will be here before we know it! YIKES! :) You have done such a nice job with Tim's industrial paint technique here. His die cut house works great as a haunted house and I love your Halloween colored embossed background as well. It makes the metal pop! Thanks for sharing with us at CC3C. <3 Candy

ReplyDeletePam, what a clever creation! That old rickety house sure does look spooky.
