Happy Halloween!

This month, we have been celebrating October and Halloween; creating "Spooktober" over at Creative Expressions. Be sure to hashtag your entry to #cespooktober to enter a project!

This is the last week for the fun! The theme is "The Witching Hour". So, I appropriately mixed Andy Skinner's Sugar Skull stamp with a black construction paper witch hat to create ...

DEAD MAN'S HAND

Greetings everyone! 


I am very excited to share my latest Halloween piece for Andy Skinner that is now being featured on his blog.  I've titled this 5" x 7" canvas "Dead Man's Hand".  Anyone who is a poker player knows that aces and eights is called a "Dead Man's Hand".  

Here is a sneak peek!

Andy's newest stamps and mixed media transfer sheets were my primary inspiration for this ghoulish piece. 
Creative Expressions has teamed with Andy to create some fabulous mixed media products; everything from Artist Pigment Paints to Image Transfer Sheets to Rice Papers!  You really need to check them out.

And...right now, they are having a Spooktober Challenge that I just HAD to get in on!  This week's theme is "SKULLS". I think this playing card qualifies with it's smiling skull in the center of the ace of spades!
