MACABRE MONDAYS

Well i am back.... and as its monday its gotta be MACABRE.
Our challenge for you this week is to use at least 3 stamps..... they can be digi or real rubber.... or a mix....whatever you like.
STAMPITCRAZY..... the link is on my side bar..... are sponsoring this challenge with some wonderful stamps as the prize..... and as anyone who comes here regularly knows i adore Barbs images.... Thank you Barb! For my offering i have used 4 stamps from STAMPITCRAZY..... and made up one of my little scenes...... i used the creepytree/graveyard stamp for my background..... then stamped our the row of graves twice and cut then out carefully and mounted them onto foam pads...one in front of the other.... i used a grave stone (the stamp actually has a hand grasping from behind the stone but i cut it off) and the beautiful sad angel stamp and attached them with foam pads too.

As usual for me ...everything is coloured with water colours and ink.
We have a competition running at MM this week and you all have to collect the 'personal' info from each of the DT blogs....so heres my personal secret..... 'Bat out of hell' was played at my husbands funeral.
I hope you can play along this week.... the stamps really are worth winning....and you need to check out what the other MACABRE MINIONS have made..... wonderful stuff!
Thanks for visiting me today. love lynx

  7. Lyn, this is fantastic and when I saw it on the other blog I said, I bet that's Lyn's! Dark and creepy in a wonderful way...the graveyard scene has always given me the creepers and this one is nice and dark but I love the sad angel stamp - she is sad indeed. Bat out of hell is a song? I always say King Mufasa drives like a bat out of hell...a saying I've always heard growing up. Hmmm...Glad to have you back, my dear! :-)
