I haven't participated in the Created Byhand Challenge before, but this week's theme is just my kind of thing, so I had to give it a go. The challenge was to make a coffin! (A template is provided).
The background is distress inks. I stamped a Tim Holtz stamp over the top and spritzed it with gold Cosmic Shimmer spray, then outlined the coffin with a gold marker. I stamped the spider web in Versamark and embossed it with gold sparkle embossing powder. The dancing skeleton stamp is by Cherry Pie and I love it just about as much as it's possible to love a small piece of red rubber. It's definitely one of my favourites. I stamped it on a separate piece of card and cut it out. To finish it off I added some printed words and a Grungeboard skull which I covered with gold embossing powder and overheated it to give it a distressed appearance then added gems in the eye sockets.
absolutely stunning!!! love the gold touches!!!
