Moonlight Skelly...

By -
How creepy-cool is this stamp image?! I found it on Ebay a year or two ago and I absolutely love it :)

I had so much fun coloring this... the big moon, the frightful jacko, and that completely wicked skeleton- witch. Well, at least I think it's a witch... either way, me likey. Let's call her Skelly, shall we?

Stamps: skeleton-witch BJ695 (Stamp it Crazy)

Paper: Monochromatic Blues Bazzill, Basic Black & Premium White carstocks, orange DCWV cardstock (all from TAC)

Ink: Palette Noir (TAC)

Colorant: Prismacolor pencils with mineral oil blending

Other: Pewter Hardware (TAC), misc. fiber, pop dots

What do you think?!

Came across your site today, LOVE IT! The Skelly stamp is definitely "creepy cool". So creepy cool I googled it found it ordered it. Can't wait to get it. I've only purchased about 18 stamps/sets for Halloween this year - but this will be my favorite!

We understand that in a world of diversity and depth, there has to be some cute, sweet stuff out there, but we simply don't want to see it here.

The Minions' two favourite creations will get to display the May Macabre Masterpiece badge, and at the end of the year the person with the most badges will receive a glorious prize from the Minions. And, each month, the ba...
