Day 18: 31 Days of Halloween

Day 18: the Framed Spider

Another ATC "Guinea Pig" card,  in other

words I was testing all sorts of stuff out on it.LOL

All of the ladies on this blog hop are so artistic it makes

you want to try different things.  

After using three different Distress Inks to color the base,

I used the Broken Glass texture fade

folder. Then rubbed Black Soot on it to make the cracks stand out.

Then I sprayed it down with Terra Cotta Glimmer mist.

  

I painted the metal frame with alcohol inks and stamped 

the spider on the text.

I used alcohol inks on a mini

domino, stamped it with a crow, covered it with 

Rock Candy Distress Crackle Paint, then rubbed

distress ink over it to bring out the crackles.

Note: And that is a crow, it may look like a Raptor dinosaur

but it is a crow. LOL

I put the Crackle Paint over the Spider too, but I think it works better

on non-porous surfaces.  I've also have learned that you

need patience when waiting on the cracks.

On the bottom edge, I broke out the Iron Gate Punch from

you know who.
