Day #11 of the 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN and MACABRE MONDAYS.

Well is the start of another week.... how come days drag by but weeks go so fast?

I finally finished the domino necklace to go in the box that was my 31 day offering on day#7 (last thursday!) I altered a domino using alcohol inks, used a miniture frankenstein head from the wonderful STRANGESKINhttp://www.strangeskin.com/....... and added washers and tiny bolts..........

I hung it from a leather thong, that i adorned with stretched out springs and bolts and to finish off i used a spring above the domino...... all a bit crazy but i like it.... as Alison my DT teamie on Smeared ink and Stampinsanity would say...its FUNKY! The picture below shows it with its box, that you saw last week.
Now as its Monday ....its the new challenge at MACABRE MONDAYS and as we are being sponsored by SIMPLY BETTY STAMPS our challenge is..... SIMPLY SINISTER..... not that my card is at all sinister, but it is simple..... just black, green and the image stamped on white.... i used just grey and green promarkers to colour RIO..... a bit of ribbon and a spider web punch.

So the challenge is...(in Barbs own words)....Simply Sinister
Sinister, but in a clean & simple way... no layer upon layer of schtuff. Keep one main focus to your project, simple & few embellishments... and make it a little creepy at the same time

It would be great if you could join in this week..... and pop over to MACABRE MONDAYS to see what the other MINIONS have created.

Thanks for visiting me today and i'll see you tomorrow for DAY #12 of the 31 days of HALLOWE'EN.

Love lynx

  14. Dominos as necklaces ... I wouldn't have even dreamed that in my wildest dreams. You make it all look so easy as well - the mark of a great crafter. The Rio card ... less is definately more in this case. Beautiful
