I was given this awesome image to play with, Eva the Witch

Eva is colored with watercolor pencils. The background uses DecoArt stencils, Viva Las Vegas Stamps, Unity Stamps and Lost Coast Design Stamps. The background color is fingerpainted, so fun!, with various acrylic paint. The sentiment is from a song, lyrics by Paul Hewson.

Hope to see in at Dream in Darkness soon...

As always the theme is Anything Goes, please no sugary sweet cute, okay? Darksiders like a playplace, too.

Said hallway, cat, ghosts and creepy sticky stuff are all from HOTEL HELL, a fabulous digital kit by Marta van Eck...come on you know you want it.....did you know the images in the kits are so clean and awesome you can print them out and  create whatever artistic mayhem suits you?

Dream in Darkness NEW Challenge~Ike's Art!

Happy July!

Today starts a brand new challenge at our Dark Challenge Blog, Dream in Darkness, Challenge #3!

Link with us HERE

It is always anything goes as long as it is DARK....CREEPY....ALTERNATE......

Our amazing sponsor this month is IKE and her amazing images were given to the CT and to our fabulous FIRST Guest CT, Wendy!!! Please hope along and show some creepy good support to these awesome ladies!

Here we go!

I was given this fabulous image by Ike, "Goblin"


"Falling Apart" art tag :)

I printed the digital stamp several times. I colored using dollar store watercoloring pencils.

   

I started cutting pieces apart to layer and make him 'fall apart'. Even goblins have bad days...

I found a Ranger Melting Pot on clearance and could not pass it up! Soooooo everything got a shiny coat of UTEE....till I ran out of it!

The sentiment is a fabulous New Release stamp by Visible Image that arrived in the nick of time and I thought was sooo much better than what I had originally planned :) The tag background is covered in distress ink with more Visible Image Ink Splats, Drag & Drip and Plasma, heat embossed. 

Thanks so much for coming by today! Cannot wait to see what you make for our fabulous Challenge #3 sponsored by super IKE!
